Oh, I don't disagree.
That's a path you don't want me going down, though. The amount of politics involved in your (read:everyone's) daily life is staggering, but most people have very little understanding of it all. That being said, those things aren't as overtly political as patriotic displays, which are also much more political than most people realize.
