Truncated title.

Full title: Special delivery! Democrats procure flags for convention stage after embarrassing oversight leaves Old Glory missing from Monday night's festivities

After slogging through a boisterous convention on the floor, Democrats were forced to make a last-minute adjustment to the on-stage decor, after a report pointed out there were no American flags present.

“Right, somebody goofed up the Hammer and Sickle flags and they weren’t ready in time.”

Nope the hammer and sickle flags were there and so were the Palestinian flags.

It wasn’t an oversight. They hate the flag. They’re just getting them because people noticed.

Is Bill Errs in attendance?

At least he is in spirit. His spirit infuses all those silly, dead-where-they-stand women leading the DNC to its complete destruction. Errs reward will be great in the afterlife.

Reminds me of the balloon drop at Kerry’s convention for some reason. Hopefully it’s another bad omen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FTtIbkTWTY

To democrats the flag is just something like a piece of a costume or a decoration.

Something they had to hang up to fool people.

Not something they cherish and revere.
