I love a bit of flag-waving.

I am a big believer in letting your own personal freak flag fly.

The flag represents all the values and the liberties Americans have and enjoy everyday.

I have loved but one flag and I can not share that devotion and give affection to the mongrel banner invented for the League of Nations.

Our flag is not just one of many political points of view. Rather, the flag is a symbol of our national unity.

I believe our flag is more than just cloth and ink. It is a universally recognized symbol that stands for liberty, and freedom. It is the history of our nation, and it's marked by the blood of those who died defending it.

I'm not really clear what the whole deal is with flags. I like my flag, but I wouldn't die for it. There's issues of identity, of course. That's going to always come in. I, for example, don't want to be called a 'North Britisher.' I want to be Scottish.

Our flag honors those who have fought to protect it, and is a reminder of the sacrifice of our nation's founders and heroes. As the ultimate icon of America's storied history, the Stars and Stripes represents the very best of this nation.

I long to be in the Field again, doing my part to keep the old flag up, with all its stars.
