Who screwed up?

Rating: Null/10 (3 October 2004)

Alright! Who screwed this up? Why is there an American flag in the background on the cover when it was the Nation of the Rebuplic of Texas that bravely established The Alamo and the deeds done there in history.
Credit where credit is due, it was not the American flag flying over the Alamo, but that of the nation of Texas! I resent the attempt of the producers to make this movie a source of American pride. The history taught today in our schools is tainted enough without Hollywood adding to it. I am not a Texan, but I do have an IQ higher than Highway Speed limit signs, and was taught history back when truth was valued higher than politics. U.S. Senator Crockett received a lot of flack from his fellow members of Congress for leaving Washington to go and fight for the independence of a nation other than that of the U.S. (Note that no current members of Congress or the House have done so today, even though many hold reserve commisions in the military.)
After the events at the Alamo, the Republic of Texas did join the United States, but the Alamo remains a proud part of the history of a nation other than the U.S.
