why so patriotic now?

by amber w. - Libra

Why are we so patriotic now?  Before, if you walked down
the street you may see a couple of flags.  But now seldom
is there a house that isn't waving the red, white, and blue
for all to see.  Is it a shame that it took a tragedy like 
this to open our eyes, to make us see.  Go ahead and hang 
those flags high.  But when the battle is over, how many
days before you take it down?  So God bless America, and
not just because of the battle that faces us today, but
because we as Americans needed an eye opener like this to
bring our country together.

Reason for writing:

    I think it speaks 4 its-self
