The libs hate it when people point out examples of flag abuse. It probably galls them because they view it as a piece of cloth or paper, and, after all, how can anybody be offended when somebody bites, folds, tears, mutilates, or devours a piece of cloth or paper? They hate being nailed on it because they think a bunch of yahoos will question their patriotism. Hmmm.
So, since fomenting liberal angst is one of greatest sporting events known to man, and we lettered in that particular event, here goes.
From Red State (part from email alert, part from link).
For two days RedState has been at the Democratic Convention trying to find American flags. Sure, when the television cameras come on for prime time network coverage, the Democrats have been passing out flags like candy.
But when the prime time lights are not on, and for the entire time Tuesday night, including during prime time, there have been no American flags: not in the crowd, not on the stage, not in the hallways — nowhere.
Well, we finally found some American flags.
They were in the trash.
Red State found a couple of bags of trash at the Democrat Convention last night.
Just focus on this: The Democrats only pulled out the flags for prime time Monday night and Wednesday night. They have otherwise avoided all displays of the American flag. After Wednesday night, they threw them in the trash.

Take a moment to really drink in the next one. Very rich in metaphor and symbolism.

Well, what else might you expect from a mob of America-hating communists? Burn the flag, burn the Constitution.
Nothing new. They are not Americans. They should be deported to Venezuela or Cuba...their choice. One way.

The “save the planet” party members will just get a new flag, plastic bottle of water and candidate banners tomorrow for the big speech about change....,

A few years ago the local ‘Rat party was handing out little plastic flags at the Christmas parade. I took one and looked at it and printed along the side near the stick were the words “Made in China”. I chased her down and gave it back.

This is great fodder for a “Wall E” photoshop.

But don't question their patriotism...
If they had handed out Korans, I assure you that not one would have ended up in the trash.

I'm saving these images to share!
I noticed during Gov. Palin’s speech that the crowd burst into “U.S.A” chants at least a couple of times. I haven't heard that happen once during any of the DNC convention coverage that I've watched.

Democrats respect a different flag.

That’s okay. They can just go back and edit it in for posterity.

Even flags know when the DNC touch them.
What I noticed about the flags, was that they were upside down. Or does that have anything to do with it.

The way foreign trade is going, any day now I’m expecting to see American flags marked “Made in Vietnam.”
