Proud to be un-American


icon"I hate to see the American flag hanging out of every bloody station wagon, out of every SUV, every little Midwestern house in some residential area. It's easy to confuse patriotism with nationalism. Flag waving ain't gonna do it." -- Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson in an interview published Sunday in the Asbury Park Press. The remarks got him banned "forever" from WCHR-FM in New Jersey.

The station took a poll of listeners and the verdict was in favor of banning them. Of course there will probably the gratuitious calls of censorship and McCarthyism, because everyone knows that freedom of speech means you can say unpopular things and people still have to buy what you're selling.
