Flutterby in the Sky

We hesitate to suggest that anyone is more or less patriotic than someone else. Passing such judgement seems like an unnecessary race to extremism, which can only lead to practical #McCarthyism. Don't believe us? Ask someone how patriotic they are: even if they can prove undying loyalty, the process of proving it feels an awful lot like those hearings of yore.

While #LevarBurton might love this symbol of brute 'Merican strength, we find it wanting a certain amount of heft or muscle. Even though he danced like a butterfly, the great #MuhammedAli realized he needed to sting like a bee.

Lest our proud nation risk being pulverized on the windshield of people with competing ideas, we suggest a more wise, strong, powerful animal. In short, almost any other creature will do.
