Sasha, you are so damned critical. First, I think the dove heads are much
cuter than the eagles with their tongues sticking out. Second, I think the
arms growing out of its -- shouldn't we say "their"? -- ass is a nice touch.
Besides, isn't that St. George slaying a dragon on the "real thing"? Isn't
SG English? Honestly, Sasha, sometimes I wonder. The American eagle can
beat the crap out of your eagle any time. Besides, why are we arguing about
a bird that's essentially a thief, stealing other birds' hard won dinners
and hanging out at garbage dumps? Then, perhaps it is the perfect symbol
for our revered nations, eh?
