No American flags visible at DNC on Day 1
American Thinker ^ | July 26, 2016 | Thomas Lifson

Patriotism took a back seat to racial grievances last night at the Democratic National Convention, as no American flags were visibly present at an event dedicated to picking a political leader for the United States of America. Alex Pfeifer of the Daily Caller was among those who noticed:

The Daily Caller is at the Democratic National Convention and it doesn’t look like there are any American flags.

The stage is bland and grey, with no red, white or blue present. A thorough look at the crowd present also turns up no American flags.

I’m surprised they would recite the pledge of allegiance at the DNC convention. They don’t really want us to be a republic.

Instead of United States of America, they want Untied No-Man’s Land.

Even a self hating movement needs something to pledge to. Maybe they pledge allegiance to Hillary’s cankles.

See #45: Palestinian. Might as well be ISIS.

Palestinian flags were seen but no American flags.
I saw one Puerto Rican flag ... which always makes me angry (but not specifically at PR).
If the country you left is so friggin' great, WTH did you leave it?

The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico isn’t a country, it’s a US Territory.

I'm surprised the stage isn't a lighter shade of blue:

I don’t think so.

Real socialists actually live in communes.

Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and Harry Reid want power and wealth.

They don’t want to pick turnips at Turnip Commune #34.

So why are you bitching about Puerto Rico flags? Hmmm?

Would you similarly bitch about State flags?

There were no Bernie signs after the gestapo confiscated them. Nothing to distract from Herself.

[Interesting that there are no flags.]

The flag symbolizes IN GO WE TRUST. The banner over us is JESUS CHRIST.
