Patriot Day or Pet Goat Day

KKOB an Albuquerque republican right-wing radio station using our public airwaves has been calling this Patriot Day. WTF? Is that like the Patriot Act. That has Karl Rove written all over it. If you would like to call them like I did, their number is 505 243 3333.

as I had a piece of mail in my inbox about "patriot day" savings. And I am a federal employee- shouldn't I be getting this off as a paid holiday?

calls it Patriot Day.

5. Patriot day is April 19th. The beginning of the Revolutionary war where real freedom was fought for

Don't let Bush Bastardize the holiday name.

10. you Americans lucky enough to be where our Country started

seem to appreciate the origin. My boyfriend was born in DC and he is such a Patriot. I think living around all of the historical sites is a plus for you all. Good for Massachusetts!
