A Newsweek writer says the POW MIA flag is racist and should be taken down because, and I'm paraphrasing, it portrays American's as the victims of war, and we're not, certainly weren't in Vietnam he writes:

Terry in Shawnee says, "Only an idiot, no, a blooming idiot would write such garbage!"

Jane in Wellston says, "That Flag stays our vets lost their lives for us and are lost because of us, This PC Racist crap needs to stop."

From James, "It should fly until such time as the last troop, male or female, white, black, red or yellow is accounted for."

Jill in Tecumseh, "If this idiot would look at photos of POW's he would see they are of all nationalities and all races."

Donna watched my commentary online and says, "I couldn't even make it through the whole clip. My dad was a POW in Korea for almost two years. If he were still alive, he'd set that idiot straight."

From Tom, "This is getting ridiculous! If it offends you, get over it!"

Tammy in Seminole asks, "Is this columnist from another country or North Vietnam? This is disgraceful of a columnist in the USA!"

Finally Aimee in Shawnee says, "To the guy who wrote this article, if you don't stand behind our troops, please feel free to stand in front of them!"
