The Left’s War on Patriotism Reaches America’s 250th Celebration

Those of us who have been around a while remember what American life was like fifty years ago. - John F. Di Leo

It was 1976, a presidential election year, and almost everything was partisan. 

But not everything:

• In 1976, the country was wrapped up in Bicentennial fever: Red, white and blue were everywhere, in advertisements and clothing and bicycles and decorations...

Fifty years have passed, and how things have changed...

Do we see the presence of our nation’s semiquincentennial anywhere in the popular culture today?

• If anything, the nation is less patriotic than ever, because the Democratic party – and the modern Left in general – have decreed that the very concept of patriotism is verboten, so they will not participate in much of a patriotic bent anymore. 

That leaves just half the country to pick up the slack...
