The thing that would elevate this to something beyond the label of potentially cheap stunt, is that once the Obama campaign and the media commits itself to a certain explanation (most likely shame on McCain for politicizing the flag), that the guy (or guys) that found the flags come out of the woodwork to explain where the flags were found and their their condition at the time (probably tossed in a dumpster).
May not seem much now, but my gut says that this story has legs.
To: brooklynlou; nutmeg
camp obama claims flags were ripped off. A vendor who asked to remain anonymous found them during cleanup. The flags were abandoned imo.

This story is the perfect example of the reality between liberals and conservatives. They throw the flag in the garbage when they are finished using it and no one is looking. They do the same with “unwanted” children also.
We respect the flag and the sanctity of life.
