Default Re: PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

Great kid!

I used to shop Menards. Many years ago around the 4th of July I was shopping there when they were promoting the "made in Taiwan" junk. I was in the checkout ready to pay when I noticed the end cap full of flags. Being 4th of July I got that patriotic feeling again and since mine was old and tattered I decided to purchase a new one. The clerk started to ring me out when I noticed the flag's wrapper said, "made in Taiwann. I was so disgusted with the fact that I could not even purchase a US flag made in the US that I promptly left all my purchases on the counter and walked out. I did not return for over 10 years over that simple thing but it really pi$$ed me off!
