that Americanization from my viewpoint, would be when someone wants to be American so much that they take the required steps to become a U.S. citizen...wearing a bikini with the flag print on it certainly doesn't do it..besides..depending upon what direction the stripes go, can really make you look fat...so why do it other than to be disrespectful of the flag in the first place??

Grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked,the good fortune to run into the ones I do,and the eyesight to tell the difference.
