USA Flag

Crossing The Line
(September 17, 2007)

USA as flag

While USA Patriotism! will always support the freedoms provided by the constitution including the freedom of speech . . . there are times when the silent majority needs to loudly express its dissatisfaction and outrage over expressions that are based upon untruths / falsehoods / lies . . . just for the purpose of political gain.

What is the good from actions of this nature when it has nothing to do about love of country . . . but achieving an agenda at any cost including defaming one's integrity without substance and facts?

Nor is anything more damning than to be accused of an act of treason that  reminds one of Benedict Arnold. It seems only America's enemies gain by seeing this foul behavior . . . giving them comfort and possibly re-energizing their propaganda and more lethal efforts.The sword of false accusations and purposeful intent to destroy a fellow American's good name and reputation has become a very ugly trait in today's political environment. Are these the type of individuals who the silent majority wants influencing our leaders or being our leaders?

Then there are our elected leaders at all levels who should condemn actions of this nature regardless of political affiliation. Standing strong on principal and reacting as they would if it were themselves being attacked, knowing they are being wronged to fellow Americans and the rest of the world.

David Bancroft, Founder of USA Patriotism!Ask yourself, how would you react if it were you or a loved one being portrayed as such? Well, that is how each American should think especially when political discourse should be based on honor and duty to country and not self . . . just like it is for our brave troops, who are there for us every day!

It is why I wrote my new poem, Duty, Honor, and Country.
