#4 Obama Supporter 9/6/2008 7:54:38 PM I was there. I was at the Obama speech. It was terrific, but as it ended, I watched the flags being thrown into trash bins. I asked why they were throwing out American flags. People just ignored me.
I believe Sen. Obama and his supporters like me should be outraged at this trashing of our flag...not making up lies and excuses for what was going to be done with them. Besides...ask yourself...why would they need to "save" the flags for future events? Why not let the people keep them as souvenirs? Why ask for them back? No. They were throwing them in trash bins. I was there. No more will I support Obama.
