Time to move on

Yin and Yang.

Part of me wants to realize that there is a time for extreme closeness, reminding your fellow citizens that you we are one no matter what we have said and done to each other in the past; that putting the flag on everything is a way to show respect even if the specifics of the codes for flying the flag are pushed to the limit.

And I think there are other times that we need to be argumentative with each other to make sure that neither liberals nor conservatives are too dominent a political group, that we argue about whether State sponsored events should be allowed to have religious overtones or not; that we handle the subjects of abortion, gun control or "God" in pledges and songs; that we argue about whether Bush is a country bumkin or Clinton is a horney idiot. The peaceful resolution of that type of conflict is what keeps us a strong nation.

But there is another part of me that says, "Time to move on?!?!?" Let me buy you a ticket on the next plane to Budapest.
