whats so tacky about the american flag in the first place? I mean really you live here in the United States are you really so arrogant as to say that it is tacky (no you didn't say it but you did write this ungodly response to an article about someone displaying a flag...)
In response to the rest of it.. WOW.. you really should be proud of yourself... better than the rest of us.. then packing your bags and go live in china, cuba or any of the other communist nations.. I'm sure they'd be glad to have your aesthetically unhappy self.
