Any rule or custom pertaining to the display of the flag of the United States of America, set forth herein, may be altered, modified, or repealed, or additional rules with respect thereto may be prescribed, by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States, whenever he deems it to be appropriate or desirable; and any such alteration or additional rule shall be set forth in a proclamation

Tell me when Bush Issued a proclamation allowing presidents to sign flags???? Got a source for that one, genius??

Yeah, game set match - to prove you're a hypocrite.

You're pathetic - name calling and all.

Maybe you thought you had your own little scandal as your claim to fame. But your willingness to bend the rules when it suits you is your downfall. You're nothing more than a hypocrite. President Bush didn't set forth a proclamation to allow signing of flags. So the rules for flag conduct were broken by the president. So president Bush IS desecrating the flag by your standards - and by a factor much larger than what john kerry has done.

By your hypocritical argument (if kerry does it, it's desecration - if bush does it - it's ok) - any display of a representation of a flag - be it on a poster, in a book, whatever - even if it's in the background - is a flag. And then every book or poster containing a representation of a flag must therefore follow all the flag rules.

Of course, it only must be done if it isn't president bush doing it. Because then it's okay. Because you can pull out a line saying it's okay if he issues a proclamation, but he never has issued a proclamation anyway.

Game, set, match. - You're a hypocrite. And you're wrong, too.
