Really? USA Today effed up a title as badly as that?

Took him long enough. Oh wait, Armstrong wasn’t a crackhead, no wonder it took so long for HUSSEIN to make up his mind.

Oh my, check out the REAL title:

Obama orders flags at half-staff for Neil Armstrong

So you must be the editor, huh? You can change any title you like?

I say you're trying to spin things. As if reality wasn't quite good enough.

So why make up a fake title?

He wastes no time lowering the flag for theater or Sikh temple shootings.

It’s set for Friday because Mr Armstrong’s funeral is Friday. And it’s all day, not after the funeral. I hate that sumbeech too, but he is following the normal dictums of of observation.

This is an appropriate honor for a great American.

The fact that Obama has ordered the flag lowered for days at a time for mass shootings does not change that fact.

Really? You attributed it thusly:

USA Today | 8/27/12 | David Jackson, USA

So you are David Jackson? No? Then you are ripping off his stuff.

I can link to it any way I like.

Sure. But when you mis-attribute it or re-title it, you screw up royally.

It isn't your work, you don't get to write the title.

Now go cry, Emo kid.

Complain to the mod, and get it pulled. Post it yourself any way you prefer.

Have a nice day.

No thanks. I prefer to toss in your face, since it's you who did it.

Post it yourself any way you prefer.

No thanks. You messed up, you lied, you failed and you deserve the credit.

Suck it up. Enjoy the taste.

Be honest next time.

Thank you. I had the right names, but in the wrong order.

Of course, in my mind, they aren’t old men. I will always remember them they way they looked when they triumphantly returned.
