2. Red state mentality
The blue state mentality says that 9/11 is a time to mourn and remember.

the red state mentality sees 9/11 as nothing more than a blank check for neverending war, which these people glorify.

Though I saw some moran at the restaurant with two flags attached to his car. The flags were down to nubs from the wind. If people insist on driving around with flags on their car, why can't they at least have whole flags. Is a wind battered half flag some kind of statement?

5. mayday is when
young maidens dance around a "big pole" to celebrate spring fertility. then they pass out "may baskets" to the young men....seems pretty sexy to me! i`m so old i actually remember in grade school we actually did this! then that all went away because of those evil commie`s and their "may day parade" of tin missles..so the usa came up with "law day"...this has been a brief history on "mayday" in the usa..test on friday

6. Last year May 1 was "Loyalty Day"

You're right, we have to defeat the remembrance of the Commie May Day.

I remember May baskets and dancing around the May pole.
