Well, fine for anyone who wants to decorate their car this way. I don't knock anyone for doing it, but I can't see myself doing that.
As for patriotic songs, some seem okay, but it amazes me how quickly a bad event seems to generate the latest country dirge. It's not my favorite song. I guess because songs illicit certain feelings. For example, the Dixie Chicks' "Travelin' Soldier" I like because it's about losing a loved one during the Vietnam war which was before my time. Anything by Toby Keith or whoever that goes after the 9/11 attack rings hollow, that they made the song to make money off the tragedy. I'm sure that some didn't, but that's how it feels.
