Bandwagon Patriotism

Here we are in a time crisis and so many people are showing their pride in America. That is great, however, the American people should inherently have a sense of pride for this country that they live in and not just in times of tragedy. Here you have flag kits, car flag kits, flag pastry, flag underwear, flag this or that...and people are out there buying all of these items to show their pride. As I have said in the forum, the amount of patriotism is not directly proportional to the amount of flags you can display in a defined area. I have a lapel pin that I wear almost everyday...however this is just a decoration to my true red, white, and blue that runs through my veins. Now I see that the American people are getting tired of this patriotism. Watch out for a backlash soon...and it will be headed by the mainstream leftist liberals out there.
