i dont want to hear about they only want to "show their patriotism" and "whats wrong with that?" lines. where were they before 911? i didnt see any of them bragging "good ole' USA"!
makes me sick.....
Its like a fad! Then all these companies making this crap benefit off it and they arent even American companies and people buy it and put it on their cars! How unamerican is that? Posers.....

James-
Well, you don't know me that well, and I hope you won't think that same logic applies to me when I get my commemorative 9/11/01 license plates. I have always been patriotic. Very patriotic. I'm the only guy on my block that has flown both an American flag and a POW-MIA flag at every appropriate holiday for more than 15 years now. In fact, I also am an annual contributor to the fund for maintaining the local Veterans Memorial.
I agree that the yahoo's that seemed to come out of the woodwork are a joke, but not all the people that seem patriotic these days are like that. Some of us have always been proud, patriotic Americans.
As a footnote to those of you who still have the right to vote, but don't, well, you should be ashamed of yourselves. I would give anything to have that right again, and hopefully, in just over 4 years, I will.
Take care,
