This amendment itself mean nearly nothing to me, but I suppose I support it about like I’d support an amendment banning Girl Scout hot Jello wrestling. Considering the frequency of the offense, it’s not at the top or my list of priorities.
What does offend me, however, is that the Republican Senate can completely alienate the base with phony immigration reform, profligate spending, etc., and then think we’re going to get all warm and mushy over a flag burning amendment. They think we’re a bunch of bumpkins that only need to be thrown a little red meat occasionally so that we’ll play nice. “Well, geyooollie… dem boys really is one of us! Dey won’t let the twelve million illegal aliens burn the guverment-subsidized flag we provided them through Medicare! I loves ‘em!”
