Here's a Patriotism Primer in these troubled times.
Sticking a flag decal in the window of your car: PATRIOTIC.
Pointing out that many of these decals are going on Japanese and German cars: UNPATRIOTIC.
Major news organizations preying on the gullibles' bioterror fears to sell magazines:PATRIOTIC.
Gas stations preying on the gullibles' rationing fears to sell gas: UNPATRIOTIC.
Rallying around government takeover of airline security: PATRIOTIC.
Wondering if airline deregulation was such a good idea in the first place: UNPATRIOTIC.
Bill Maher: UNPATRIOTIC.
Trampling the First Amendment because Bill said an uh-oh: PATRIOTIC.
Wanting to level the whole Middle East: PATRIOTIC.
Letting, even for a moment, the thought that U.S. policy over the past half-century may have contributed, in some itsy-bitsy tiny way to the hatred of Islamic fundamentalists, cross your mind: UNPATRIOTIC.
Hope this helps. If not, perhaps this cartoon will.
