Probably just some old fart with too much time on his hands.

I quit reading after the 2nd paragraph.....just know that not all dems/progressives/liberals follow the same beliefs as the far left fringe fanatics.

The next flyover the Angels do over San Fran, they should "accidentally" drop a couple nukes. I swear that city is the worst in the US, we'd be better off without it.

It's to the point that there IS a difference between a liberal and a democrat. Liberals are to Democrats as Bush(NeoCon) is to Republicans, the labels more and more represent the extremist viewpoints. Saying this is the typical democrat is like saying Bush is the typical republican.

Things like this just piss me off. I can't believe there's actually veterans that are against the blue angels. I don't know if I dare say it, but that's just anti-american.
The Blue Angels represent what's best about america, freedom. I consider it a privilege to see them and am glad I got to see them this year at the fargo air show.
I know all the other veterans and those currently serving will stand up for them so I don't think there will be too much to worry about.

whats even worse is they're trying to boot the ROTC academy out of SF as well, that would be such a shame i wouldnt know what to say. God forbid someone in SF gets taught respect, dignity, and moral judgement.

When I was a kid, the local TV channels would "Sign Off" at night (instead of playing infomercials forever). They'd run this video loop that was like a bald eagle flying infront of a waving american flag, and F16s flying over the grand canyon, and i don't remember what else.

I just remember those F-16s flying over the canyon... and the rippling flag.. and thinking "fuck yeah.. America is awesome".

I don't care if it was propoganda or whatever.. it actually made me feel good about uncle sam, and the people that bust their ass to keep my lame ass safe, and alll the shit we have here to be thankful for.

You rarely see that kind of thing any more. It's easy for me to get caught up in being critical, cynical, etc about our country, our leaders, our neighbors, etc. I think all car guys are "jet guys" just a little.. there's the common interest in going stupid-fast riding a machine that will kill you if you mess up... so of course during Air Sho week when the Angels are practicing here I love hearing them booming across the sky.

What surprised me is when my wife was like "you know.. I like hearing the jets fly over head... some people get upset about it i guess.. but it makes me feel good to know that they're up there."

I think a lot of people deep down are proud of their country, the military, etc, but you rarely hear about it.. its not out there any more.. its not "popular". I think that unfortuneately, cynicism and anti-americanism is what's fashionable and even people that should know better (like me, for instance) get lulled into going along with it at times.

It's pretty ridiculous that the most intelligent discourse on the whole subject I've seen recently was "team america: world police".

America. FUCK YEAH.

I think I finally scrubbed off all of the hippie from myself after my trip to cali this summer. It was bad.
