    The no quartering amendment applies only in peace time. So I suppose barfo's solution get's around that minor sticking point.

    They're spending our tax money to give us propoganda. Republicans are the kings of drapping themselves in things like the flag, the bible, patriotism.....but they don't actually do anything in the interests of the people, they are the puppets of big business and the military industrial complex.

    For me, "patriot" is one of the scariest words in the English language. When someone calls themselves a patriot I immediately check my wallet and fear for my freedoms....

    Indoctrination propaganda.

    Being a Patriot is saluting/obeying the colors no matter what their instructions.
    Being a Patriot is not questioning the establishments motives.
    Being a Hero is helping bring 'Democracy' to the world.

    Heros' need to be groomed early/young (famiiy environment/venue)

    Be a Hero! All we ask is for your Liberties and your Life.
