For 4th of July...which I Always Honor. Flag is Outside my House for WWII Veteran WWII, FIL

Who didn't ever want his Five Boys to go to Vietnam. He was an honored VET of WWII, KOREA. (Fire Boat Captain, served in ME/Africa/Pacific and Korea.

John Le Carr'e reminds us of what these Kids Today are fighting for.....and it's Coporate Greed and for scripts/memes written by those who feel "WAR" is the "Only Answer" for "American Exceptionalism.

So My Flag is out there and I will watch the Fireworks...........but....the Patriot in me for the Kiling, Death and American Might has "flagged out."

I would have put a "PEACE FLAG" out.....but, America, the way it's going will NEVER BE FOR PEACE. So, I try to fit in with my neighbors .....one of which had "Sarah Palin for President" and the Other had McCain-Palin.......

And I don't want them F***Iing with my Internet Connection and Spying on me. This is how bad it has gotten...these days.

Neighbor watching Neighbor....and so much differences in people who live just a household apart who barely speak to each other.....

It shouldn't be this way.......I live in a 2% Neighborhood.... You would ask why? Because we moved from a High Cost area of the NE and could afford More when we moved here (And..Things Were Different......because Clinton had just been ELECTED and we were YOUNGER with the "HOPE FOR CHANGE from Arkansas)

And, Once Again, All of us Obama Supporters did a "Clinton Redux" in Taking the Second Chance after Clinton and then Bush Stolen Election...... And, it has not been good........WE SHALL SEE....but to watch this allows me to see that CHANGE...is NOT COMING.

Ukraine..."Cold War Restart" demonizing Russia when we should be after the IMF/EUROZONE/TRADE AGREEMENTS in SECRET/and WALL ST. GETTING AWAY with FINES.

This VIDEO SHOWS...nothing has CHANGED ......it's the same old, same old that Many DU'ers Grew Up WITH! And we want to talk about it.

McCarthyism, Book and Movie Banning, Richard Nixon and Watergate, and COLD WAR FOREVER because of AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM!

Is Death, Destruction and...American Exceptionalist....when Neighbor AGAINST Neighbor is the RESULT? It makes MONEY for the Internet Sites...on both sides.....but, is it Productive?

This is a Good Watch from John Le Carr'e/Alias Ruppert Cornwall....
