I was sent this through an email and found it important enough to post here...

Get YOUR FLAG READY
 

Please join us in this FLY THE FLAG campaign and PLEASE forward this E-mail immediately to everyone in your address book asking them to also forward it. We have a little less than one week and counting to get the word out all across this great land and into every community in the  United States of America .     
 
If you forward this e-mail to least 11 people and each of those people do the same ... You get the idea.
 
THE PROGRAM:
 
On Thursday, September 11th, 2008, an American flag should be displayed outside every home, apartment, office, and store in the  United States . Every individual should make it their duty to display an American flag on this seventh anniversary of one our country's worst tragedies. We do this honor of those who lost their lives on 9/11, their families, friends and loved ones who continue to endure the pain, and those who today are fighting at home and abroad to preserve our cherished freedoms.
 
In the days, weeks and months following 9/11, our country was bathed in American flags as citizens mourned the incredible20losses and stood shoulder-to-shoulder against terrorism. Sadly, those flags have all but disappeared. Our patriotism pulled us through some tough times and it shouldn't take another attack to galvanize us in solidarity. Our American flag is the fabric of our country and together we can prevail over terrorism of all kinds
 
Action Plan:
 
So, he re's what we need you to do ..
 
(1) Forward this e-mail to everyone you know (at least 11 people). Please don't be the one to break this chain. Take a moment to think back to how you felt on 9/11 and let those sentiments guide you.
 
(2) Fly an American flag of any size on 9/11. Honestly, Americans should fly the flag year-round, but if you don't, then at least make it a priority on this day.
 
Thank you for your participation. God Bless You and God Bless  America !

Great idea!

But there is one thing I disagree with: "Our American flag is the fabric of our country..." It's the people that are the fabric of our country; the flag is a symbol of our great citizenry!

I agree, the flag is a symbol of our great country. My only question is why, if you have a flag, should we wait until the 11th to fly it? If you already have a flag you should fly it every day! (even though I don't, but I'm putting it out now 023)
