“The American flag represents all of us and all the values we hold sacred.”

Worrying that banning flag desecration would inhibit free speech reveals a misunderstanding of the flag’s fundamental nature.

Congress, just out of the clear blue sky.

Rather, the flag is a symbol of our national unity.

Giving people what they want isn’t just good radio

One of the things I learned in law school is that there’s nothing wrong or undesirable.

It’s not written in the Constitution or anything else….

Said the airwaves belong to the people, which means, in essence, that it belongs to Congress.

It’s also the right way to run a country.

In which there’s no such thing as private property rights.

Without amendments we would never even have had the Bill of Rights.

Our nation is built on the bedrock principle that governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.

Or dishonorable or destructive about amending the Constitution.

The electronic spectrum is the only natural resource.

Even though we are not sure of the links, Iraq was one of the countries that did not lower its flags in mourning on 9/11.

A symbolic flag on the quad or something to show how many people were starving in the world. But once they saw their efforts connected to a person, I did see a change.

I try not to think retrospectively. It’s important, as an artist, to look forward, always. I do try to take work that involves some challenge. If you approach a piece of work and you’re going, “Yeah, yeah, I can do that,” then that’s kind of a red flag.
