There's a bit of a brewing tempest about 12,000 flags discovered in the trash after the Democratic convention in Denver. Fox News reports that the Democrats tossed them in the trash.
The Obama campiagn says they didn't toss the flags in the trash, that they wouldn't mistreat the flag like that.
Here is AP photo number 467 from the last night of convention. The AP caption reads
Democratic vice presidential nominee Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., his wife, Jill, center, and Michelle Obama, wife of Democratic presidential nominee, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., applaud during talk on the final night at the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Thursday, Aug. 28, 2008.
You decide.

“I wish they would have gotten a photo before they moved them.”
See post 21.
Hahahahaha. Now THAT’S funny!
China
and that is another insult, I visualize the workers spitting on them before they are packaged and shipped, American flags by law should be manufactured in America.
That's "trash on the flag."
