Not so, not even close, but I know some anti-warriors will spew anything in advance of Bush's planned aggression, and feel justified by pointing to the "Iraqi people" as if they are one, and as if said anti-warrior truly cares about the common Iraqi's fate.

Define "frothing" for me, and while you reach for your dictionary, note that I think ALL flags are an affront to human progress and dignity. They are symbols of tribalism and nationalism and would, in a decent world, be used solely to start a race. So how you react to Old Glory is really your business. Froth and wretch to your heart's content.
