Great quote:
“I just spoke with the person at Invesco who found the flags and he thinks both sides are exaggerating a bit. The person claims the majority of the bags with flags in them were near the trash, on a dock, and would have been thrown away. The person thinks it was probably an oversight by the Democrats rather than any nefarious plot against the flag. But the person doesnt believe anyone was coming to get them: The flags were there for a week and a day and no one came looking for them.”
Doesn’t really sound to me like BOTH sides are exaggerating.
It sure looked to me like the flags were in plastic trash bags with other items that anyone would consider trash
Well if you info from Inforamtion officer on Monday post it I really want to know
I wouldn’t pass that on Demos especially Magic Barry
Maybe hes got Muslim connections or were going to say that, you know, he hangs out with radicals or hes not patriotic.
This whole campaign is walking and quacking like an unpatriotic duck. Gee, I think the question of whether he hangs out with radicals has been answered.
agree.
big time tv ad!
Interesting. Those flags are $5.00 a piece. So $60,000 was "stolen" and noone thought to file a police report. Well ModelBreaker has four of them. Every precinct caucus I run in the future will start with one of them and the story of how the rats were going to throw them out.
So come and get me Obama, for receiving stolen property.
You guys should have seen it today. They passed them out to a huge crowd at the McCain/Palin rally. The flags started at the front and then spread across the crowd. By the end, 12,000 Republicans were waving flags paid for by the DNC.
That's what conservatives have spent the last 50 years doing. Cleaning up after the mess left by liberals. We even know what to do with their trash.
Doug, those pics need to go to Drudge, Hannity, Rush and any other media outlet that will broadcast them.
Some were mixed with litter and if I remember some were on the floor. They were not in bundles or bundled in trash bags.
I just spent a half-hour trying to find the photo Drudge had on his site last week, to no avail. Maybe someelse will have better luck?

I think someone is blowing a lot of smoke here, but I’m not sure who.
What bunch of pigs Demos are
You need to sell one of them on eBay. If you need help writing the script, it will be a pleasure! Or, I will list it as long as I know it can be delivered to the winning bidder. Are you in?
If the flags had been French, the democrats would have taken them home like they were a national treasure and displayed them proudly.
Here are the statements from the Democrats.
American flags were proudly waved by the 75,000 people who joined Barack Obama at the Democratic Convention. John McCain should applaud that, but instead his supporters wrongfully took leftover bundles of our flags from the stadium to play a cheap political stunt calling into question our patriotism.
Ummm, “wrongfully took” means stolen.
I gather you saw this... (check out the Pepsi Center vs. Invesco/Redstate comment)
