Words and Images Do Have Meaning
Red Skelton recounts his memories of a teacher who taught him and his classmates the true meaning of the Pledge of Allegiance:
How stirring and meaningful.
Not at all like this. More here.

Ah…..No
Ed Morrissey wants your opinion on adopting a new National Anthem.
It didn’t take me long to cast my vote.
There seems to be quite enough change happening in America at the moment!

Well said:
Now many believe the stimulus package is an economic coup d’état, that it allows the feds to control Americans by doling out jobs and money. If the folks are dependent on one political party for their well-being, they’re always going to vote for that political party. That’s what happened in Illinois. The Democratic machine there bought so many voters it is essentially a one-party state. And we saw how that worked out.

And again:
What Obama, like Carter before, doesn’t get is it isn’t about him. Yeah, he’s some guy from Chicago (by way of Hawaii, Indonesia and wherever) but right now in everything he does he’s the living, walking embodiment of the United States of America. He may think he’s being cool and hip but eventually Americans will grow weary of seeing the symbols of the United States made small.
Once more, based on this report:
Ed asked this morning if any “preparations” have been made for that meeting of the minds Obama’s planning with Chavez. Given this bombshell, a better question might be just how long The One’s been “preparing.”
Another fun day at the office!
