what did you expect? the message that is delivered loud and clear into
the head of every person living in the usa is: "fake? no problem, as
long as it sounds patriotic". its results are visible on all levels,
ranging from "wmd in iraq", through us cities posting "patriotic"
bull**** on their websites (likehttp://www.solvangca.com/flag/1.htm),
to veterans exaggerating their service records, and to crooks posing as
veterans. the vietnam vet idea is a story in itself. can you imagine an
ss veteran in germany driving around with a car sticker identifying him
as such?


If he is, he's probably not driving very fast, and his left turn light
is blinking.
