For "pro v. con," "con" is actually an abbreviation of the Latin "contra" meaning "against."  In Latin, "con" means "with" or "together with," while "pro" means "forward."\n\n"-gress" comes from the Latin root "to walk."\n\nPutting these together, "progress" means something like "to walk foward"; while "Congress" means "to walk together with," meaning a group of representatives determining and moving forward with a decision collectively, for instance.  It has nothing to do with "pro v. con," which should properly be understood as "pro v. contra."

Basically, it represents freedom. The freedom to think and act according to one's own beliefs without the interference of a Federal Government. We can see more clearly every decade how these freedoms have been lost since the War Between the States. You can't even spank your own kids in your own home now without drawing the attention of the Federal Government. You lost much when you crushed the 'rebellion'. I wonder how long it will take before you see it?

From left to right, it is three vertical stripes, green, white and red.  The colors were originally an adaptation of the Flag of France, with green instead of blue. Some have tried to attribute some particular values to the colors, and a common interpretation is that green is for the plains and the hills, white for the snowy Alps, and red for the blood spilt in the Italian Independence wars. A more religious intepretation is that green represents hope, white represents faith and red represents charity.

The thirteen stripes alternating red and white, with a union of thirteen white stars in a field of blue, represented a new constellation, a new nation dedicated to the personal and religious liberty of mankind.\n\n\nToday fifty stars signal from union, one for each of the fifty sovereign states in the greatest constitutional republic the world has ever known.\n\n\nThe colors symbolize the patriotic ideals and spiritual qualities of the citizens of my country.\n\n\nThe red stripes proclaim the fearless courage and integrity of American men and boys and the self-sacrifice and devotion of American mothers and daughters.\n\n\nThe white stripes stand for liberty and equality for all.\n\n\nTheblue is the blue of heaven, loyalty, and faith.

Communism uses red as a symbolic color in their flags, uniforms, etc.  "Red" refers to Communism.\n\nDuring the Cold War time, people thought for sure we would eventually be attacked by the Soviet Union and/or China and/or Cuba (refer to the Cuban Missile Crisis here).  The concept of being better off dead than red meant that it was preferable to die fighting than allow our nation to become overtaken by communists.\n\nBest Wishes,\n\nSue

Some Irish people still do not wear green. Green is the color related to Caltholism and England, which some Irish consider imposing. Orange is Protestant and Southern Ireland. While the fighting still goes on, its largely political. The Irish flag literally means, green-catholic, orange, protestant, and white a dream of a unified day.

The U.S. flag has undergone many changes since the first official flag of 1777. On June 14, 1777, the Continental Congress passed the first Flag Act, which said that the flag would be made up of thirteen alternating red and white stripes and thirteen white stars on a blue field. Stars have been added to the flag as new states join the union. Currently, the flag contains 50 stars.\n\nEver wonder why the flag is red, white, and blue? While the flag's colors did not have a specific meaning at the time, the colors were significant for the Great Seal of 1782.\n\n    * White: Signifies purity and innocence\n    * Red: Signifies valor and bravery\n    * Blue: Signifies Vigilance, perseverance, and justice\n\nWhy stars and stripes? Stars are considered a symbol of the heavens and the divine goal to which man has aspired from time immemorial; the stripe is symbolic of the rays of light emanating from the sun.

Prettier? Are you NUTS! Since when are American symbols judged on their "prettiness." I see why our country is going down the toilet! People are debating over how things look! How about what it stands for? It is a known symbol of racism and intolerance... really "pretty"! So, this DOES make you a REDNECK, ie, a hoosier with no sense of moral responsibility!

Yellow \nThis is the symbol of light and purity. It speaks of youth, happiness, the harvest, hospitality, love and benevolence. But since it is also taken as off-white, it can be the color of degradation or cowardice.
