The libs just made it a Federal crime for Republicans to display the Flag?? They own that too??

I think they are getting desperate and grasping at straws. They'll say anything to demean Sarah Palin.

The Leftwingtards convinced the USSC several decades ago to rule that all the flag protection laws were UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

Doesn't mean we don't protect the flag (personally) but that you can't get the government to do it.

It was a stupid decision, but there you have it.

This guy is so out of it ~ Sarah is free to use the flag. I am free to use the flag.

Under standards of respect and etiquette, it's made clear that the flag of the United States should never be used for any advertising purpose...


But according to Libs it is okay to burn the flag...

I get a headache anytime I attempt to follow the logic of the left.

MARTIN BASHIR is the little dweeb that Brietbart ate for lunch one day. I encourage everyone to go to Big Hollywood and watch this idiot stick to his talking points even as he's getting blown apart.

MSNBC is in tatters, they stink on ice! The idea that Martin Bashir carries and journalistic heft is laughable.

The MSM thinks that Sarah is totally winging it. In truth, she has her strategy planned out many, many moves ahead. She knows exactly what she is doing.

If you can burn the flag to show your 1st amendment rights you can display the flag on your bus for the same reason......................

“Under standards of respect and etiquette, it’s made clear that the flag of the United States should never be used for any advertising purpose whatsoever.”

The hypocrisy of this statement is just breathtaking.

Rent. Free. I love it! Go Sarah!

Colonel, USAFR

PETRIFIED.

These bottom feeding scum sucking social engineer statist bastards are PETRIFIED of Palin.

I hope she keeps them guessing and Real Clear Politics and its drones can go screw themselves.

Laundering money from the Middle East through ignorant dupes in the US is O.K. for Obama but Palin can’t do something which CLEARLY is not illegal?

SMEAR-MONGERS!

Remember, unequal enforcement of the law is THE most important weapon that a leftist/statist has in their arsenal.

Until she makes her intentions known, she is a private citizen who can drive where she wants to and hang her flag where she wants to.

Pardon me Mr. Bashir, but I don’t think that’s a sentence.

Maybe Sarah has the libtards so bumfuzzled they can no longer write correct English?

One other thing Mr. Bashir: it appears the press is chasing Sarah. She is not chasing them. Sarah is a popular political figure. If the press is silly enough to go traipsing after her as she and her family try to enjoy a vacation, what is she supposed to do? She has been pretty clear in not releasing her schedule. Why don’t you guys knock it off and let her vacation in peace.

Go chase Lindsey Lohan or something.

“Martin Bashir (born 19 January 1963) is a British journalist and media personality...”

Most American’s decided 235 years ago not to be lectured to by British subjects...as WE ARE FREE MEN AND WOMEN!!!

So, here is the actual Title 4 wording. It seems to only apply in the District of Columbia. Note also the very last sentence.

TITLE 4

§ 3. Use of flag for advertising purposes; mutilation of flag

Any person who, within the District of Columbia, in any manner, for exhibition or display, shall place or cause to be placed any word, figure, mark, picture, design, drawing, or any advertisement of any nature upon any flag, standard, colors, or ensign of the United States of America; or shall expose or cause to be exposed to public view any such flag, standard, colors, or ensign upon which shall have been printed, painted, or otherwise placed, or to which shall be attached, appended, affixed, or annexed any word, figure, mark, picture, design, or drawing, or any advertisement of any nature; or who, within the District of Columbia, shall manufacture, sell, expose for sale, or to public view, or give away or have in possession for sale, or to be given away or for use for any purpose, any article or substance being an article of merchandise, or a receptacle for merchandise or article or thing for carrying or transporting merchandise, upon which shall have been printed, painted, attached, or otherwise placed a representation of any such flag, standard, colors, or ensign, to advertise, call attention to, decorate, mark, or distinguish the article or substance on which so placed shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be punished by a fine not exceeding $100 or by imprisonment for not more than thirty days, or both, in the discretion of the court. The words “flag, standard, colors, or ensign”, as used herein, shall include any flag, standard, colors, ensign, or any picture or representation of either, or of any part or parts of either, made of any substance or represented on any substance, of any size evidently purporting to be either of said flag, standard, colors, or ensign of the United States of America or a picture or a representation of either, upon which shall be shown the colors, the stars and the stripes, in any number of either thereof, or of any part or parts of either, by which the average person seeing the same without deliberation may believe the same to represent the flag, colors, standard, or ensign of the United States of America.
