Frist on freedom
"And when you look at that [American] flag and then you tell me that right now people in this country are saying it's OK to desecrate that flag and to burn it and to not pay respect to it - is that important to our values as a people when we've got 130,000 people fighting for our freedom and liberty today? That is important."

Thank you, Senator Frist, for reminding us that we are fighting for freedom and liberty in Iraq... And what better way to proclaim our nation's commitment to freedom and liberty than to outlaw flag burning? Oh, wait...
