Flag-Waving SUVs
The wave of citizens purchasing U.S. flags in the aftermath of the recent terrorist attacks is certainly a warm and fuzzy story (Sept. 14). Will these “patriots” also be willing to get rid of their gas-guzzling SUVs--which perpetuate the United States’ dependence on Arab oil? I doubt it. That would undoubtedly be too great a sacrifice. It’s much easier to buy a flag.
