Captain America Takes Up The Second Amendment In Fear Itself #6. All Of It.
Honest. The treatment of Captain America at Marvel Comics has come in for some criticism, especially from the right of late Placards aside, there was considerable disquiet as to what was seen as Captain America criticising what were seen as Tea Party supporters Of course, that was a different man, Bucky, under the suit and he's[...]
Thirteen Years Experience by Joel Ronson #9: Watching The Superheroes
He writes for Bleeding Cool when he's not got homework.

Wednesday Comics Review: Captain America 1 And Project Superman 2

Captain America – The First Avenger: The Bleeding Cool Review
Either way it's too late to delete this paragraph now. The evolution of the Captain America costume, from authentic 1940s style to something more like the Ultimates look, is beautifully done Ditto the shield.

Captain America For Mayor
And rather than being voted for, it is given to the citizen who raises the most money to help put on the annual Fourth of July events. Which, in Kevin Benson Sr's case, means dressing up as Captain America. He's up against Sabrina Fritz, a pharmacy technician, who even sounds like a Captain America villain, and Rick[...]

But it seems that Captain America doesn't stand for Truth either And as for Justice, well that's debatable.
