Target.com: I Love A Deal: Patriot T-Shirt

"Product Description: Exclusive. Paul Revere. Thomas Jefferson. You. In big and little ways, through history and everyday life, the soul of our country comes from the energy and love of true patriots. White. 100% cotton. USA."



The 4th of July fever has hit the nation, especially here in the Bubba heartland of Texas. We're seeing patriot fervor hit a humming pitch, barreling along like a Suburban down a four-lane highway, guzzling that gas but providing that sense of motion to its super-cooled, ice-drink toting occupants. We get the high that goes along with conspicuous consumption, excessive ingestion of nourishment, beer guts, a sense of destiny. The local bank is decked in red/white/blue. And the local Target is selling "Patriot Coordinates" sporting different "Patriot" prints (the US flag, red/white/blue stars on assorted colors). And they're half-price until the 4th. Buy your patriotism while it's hot!
