A few years ago, I wrote: "I am thankful for waking up freer than most in a country that has more rights than most and may not be perfect, but is my home and we can agree to disagree."
Most of it is still true. As I raised my flag this year, I hesitated. But I realized if I didn't hoist up Old Glory, I was giving in. It is my flag, too. It is my country, too. We cannot let the forces of darkness win. So I may not celebrate as joyously this year, but I still claim my rights as a citizen and am thankful for what the flag has always stood for... "with liberty and justice for all."

Rob! I don't disagree. Every house here has a flag....or two. Did you have a flag ceremony yesterday and sing America the Beautiful and have someone read the preamble? Los Amigos did and I was there. It would be good if we all could think more about it and what it really stands for. And who is taking advantage of it. And what counts. Fortunately I don't think we have agreed to disagree.....(and that is good.)
