Beautiful flag, ayes ?

And that can be YOURS TOO if the USA returns to the fold & joins Australia, Canada, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, the UK and forty seven other sovereign nations as part of the Commonwealth of Nations.

But why ? Why the USA & why now ?

AND WHY NOT ???

After all, we share so much. Parliamentary democracy, common law, the English language. We share the same enemies abroad & the same problems at home. And now, with the imminent collapse of capitalism & its free market, the USA seems destined to join its Sister nations in massive public & private debt, bloated public services, high taxation & minimal defence spending. We share the great legacy of indebtedness we leave to our poor descendants.

In foreign affairs we invariably share the same outlook, US & Commonwealth forces serve in the same theatres (from Iraq & Afghanistan, to drug busting in the Caribbean, to protecting the Europeans). Culturally the Commonwealth nations continue to set the agenda in movies & music (Slumdog Millionaire, Nickelback, Sum 41 ... ad infinitum), literature (V.S. Naipaul, Arundhati Roy, Tom Stoppard, Germaine Greer) and in television the UK sweeps the boards ... who can forget such gems as American Idol, Doctor Who & Who Wants To Be A Millionaire ?

It might be our very own New World Order ... an Anglophone Empire on which the sun never sets, with common values & common security.

Surely that's the way ahead ?

Doesn't it make the most tremendous good sense ?

You have to be kidding me right?
You are being sarcastic surely?
How many people died in America, getting away from a Royal dictatorship?
I doubt they will just be re joining anytime soon

We had a referendum here in Australia, to get rid of the Evil Queen.
Without any fighting.
And the majority of robotic retarded wastes of space, who are severely brainwashed and brain dead, voted to keep her.
So perhaps fighting is the only way to get rid of the thing.

SURE... I will go for it if all the rest of the "provinces" Adopt the Constitution and Constitutional Amendments of the United States and the "RIGHTS" (not privileges) that go along with that Constitution.

en.wikipedia.org...

Freedom of religion, of speech, of the press, to petition, and to assemble

The right to keep and bear arms

No quartering of soldiers in private houses during times of peace or war

Interdiction of unreasonable Searches and seizures; warrants

Indictments; Due process; Self-incrimination; Double jeopardy, and rules for Eminent Domain.

Right to a fair and speedy public trial, Notice of accusations, Confronting one's accuser, Subpoenas, Right to counsel

Right to trial by jury

No excessive bail & fines or cruel & unusual punishment

Etc.

Also, no BS UN Treaties that undermine our Sovereignty.



We can add a few more Stars!

Lass,

Isnt that the flag of the British East India Company? And one originally used by G.W. as Commander of the Continental Army?

If so - why should we (re)'join' something we never left?

Along those lines - I might suggest some interesting reading - 'Honorable Treachery' by O'toole.

The author posits that the Brits never really left.

You're not supposed to know that we never left the British Empire. Time for Plan B.

That could very well be borderline scary true.

LOL! I tend to agree with CaptainCaveman's rationale. This will never happen! Sure, we share many things in common, but there are also many things that we don't. I say it's best to be friends instead of lovers!


I doubt the USA would ever adopt the Westminster System, which IMHO is a superior method of electing government. Oh yeah... Costs less too!

Darn it all, I had to re-log on to reply...

To the Brits, Canucks, etc., - all other fellow humans - I give you a head nod and respect.

While not a globalist by any means, I accept what's common, and in principle that which is not.

My fight is only with those that would have us Sub-human.

(As I went to retrieve my password at Yahpoo mail - their Top NEWS Headline read: '"Viewers livid over 'Bachelor'")

Like I said, sub-human.

Just to be clear, there is basically zero importance to being a member of the commonwealth. Like there's no kinship we feel to britain or australia. The whole thing to me might as well be a fairy tale for all the pertinance it has. Just a couple cents.

Have you all lost your minds? We are free men and women of the Americas! There is no such thing as royalty. We are each equal (and likely greater) than any old inbred lady from a dirty island filled with the filth of European bastards.

There's not a chance in the universe that we'd go back to such a retarded version of government, no matter how wild or retarded our government seems, we love it. And, if we ever fell prey to the seduction of a group of people narcissisticly bent on world-rule, we would shorty revolt again and establish a FREER form of government. Because, we are a bunch of gun-toting, fighting, strong, and brave People, and we don't like Dictators. And, more than 1/2 of us, don't like socialism. We don't all vote. That is a conscious objection to both major parties in our country, but we'll NEVER accept a Queen of ANY self-proclaimed "blood-line". The blood of AMERICANS is the only blood line we even consider valid.

Our guns are ours for two reasons; to eat by God and to keep the King of England out of our face (and that includes that barbarous Queen, too). Just because we supported you in WWII, and have been putting up with that Jewish banking system of yours, doesn't even begin to let you presume we owe you anything, or even like you. We saved the Iraqis, too.

We are an eclectic group of People who immigrated from around the GLOBE to the United States of America for the dream of true religious, intellectual, and financial FREEDOM from the DICTATORS of the world. WE are a democracy with a ROYAL LINE that is sewn into the fabric of the soul of EACH AMERICAN!

Treacherous tongues! We'd stop this! And, if we had to, we'd kill to prevent it.

in Liberty, by God,
O-315

Ah...not exactly...

On December 18, 1865, the "new" 13th Amendment loudly prohibiting and abolishing slavery (and quietly surrendering states rights to the federal government) was proclaimed adopted by Secretary of State Seward, replacing and effectively erasing the original Thirteenth Amendment that had prohibited acceptance of "titles of nobility" and "honors" and "emoluments", and dishonest politicians have been bought and bribed and have treasonously accepted graft from external sources ever since, with no thought of penalty.

The flags design is not that bad at all. As an american, the only other flag I would accept on my flag would be of the British flag.

We are family. And if the world is in dire situation and it is one of the only fixes, than so be it.!

NWO I welcome you, as long as it is the only way.
