Feeling some love for Rep Alcee Hastings - FL right now! |
|
He is smacking them down on the floor of the house about the flag burning resolution. Comparing all the programs that need attention that they aren't working on TODAY instead of working on this flag resolution.
Thank you Rep. Hastings. Asking them to tell you about how many incidents there have been reported of such behavior in the last two years, they stumbled, couldn't answer.
Freedom of speech is being attacked and he is fighting back for us.
Thank you Rep. Hastings. Sending you some love today. :loveya:

2. Am I really the only one watching this? |
|
If so, you are missing a great speech!
"Hypocrisy so thick you could choke on it". He is covering all the bases. Cross burning Congressional silence compared to flag burning. He is speaking truth. Where is every one?
"Mr. Speaker, are we so insecure in our own patriotism, that seeing someone else burning a flag will lead us to question our commitment to this great nation?"

4. I watched. He made me proud to be an American. |
|
Dork republicans Issa, the one from Georgia, and the one from Florida who support a constitutional amendment to ban flag burning had such weak arguments compared to the strength and eloquence of Mr. Hastings. I cant believe the republicans are bringing up this issue AGAIN. Guess Schaivo is a lost cause so they are reshopping this dog. I wish Alcee Hastings would run for Senate.

He was eloquent and held their hands and feet to the flame of liberty.
His speech would make a great op ed piece.
