Now it’s Palin’s Bus They’re After

MSNBC HOST SAYS AMERICAN FLAG IMAGE BREAKS FEDERAL LAW

You gotta hand it to the left. When they get after somebody…they get after somebody!

The loons at MSNBC have been after Sarah Palin from the get-go. In yesterday’s post, I wrote about Palin’s handling of the MSM – MSNBC included – during her bus tour.

Martin Bashir, (best known for his slimy interview with Michael Jackson), has his panties in a bunch over the whole thing – and he has a new plan of attack. Apparently stupified that Palin is playing his comrades like a collective fiddle, the MSNBC host attacked Palin’s BUS Tuesday. I know – I love it too.

That’s right folks, Palin’s bus could be breaking the law by displaying the American flag. Can you spell g-r-a-s-p-i-n-g a-t s-t-r-a-w-s? Pathetic and hysterical at the same time – my favorite kind of socialist humor. These people are the gift that keeps on giving.

Our pal Bashir claims that the images on the bus are a breach of a federal law because the Flag Code establishes rules for the use and display of Old Glory. Bless his little socialist heart, Martin is worried about the improper display of the Stars and Stripes! Brings a tear to a conservative eye.

Hold your revolutionary britches there, Martin -the Supreme Court ruled in 1989 that flag burning is protected by the First Amendment. I’m no constitutional attorney, but it seems to me that if flag burning is protected speech, certainly flag displaying is as well.

In the warped reality that is modern liberalism, Sarah Palin would be arrested for proudly displaying the American flag while left wing loons would be welcome (encouraged) to carry Swastikas at illegal protests.

The liberal media is imploding over Sarah Palin, folks. Try as they might to destroy her over the last three years – they have failed miserably. She is back with a vengeance and they are livid. They are powerless this time, and they know it. They know that she knows it too – which makes it even better. Stay tuned…it’s gonna be a great (bus) ride.

Only one problem, Martin, even IF you were correct about the restrictions... There ISN’T a flag on the side of Sarah’s bus, it’s wavy red & white stripes... Not a star-field in sight.

Epic FAIL - again.

MSM - 0 ; Sarah - elventy-billion....

Sarah having a flag on her bus is against the law but burning the flag is free speech. Got it, just trying to follow along with MSNBC.

Specially with a name like Bashir - very Islamic country origin. Bashir al-Assad is President of Syria.

This, THIS!!! THIS!!!!!!!!! is the best that can do against her is some faceless toothless charge that she has the US Flag on her bus!!!!!!!

How many people out there have flag decals on their cars, how many businesses use the flag as part of their logo?

HOW MANY NEWS NETWORKS USE THE FLAG ON THEIR OWN DAMN VEHICLES??????????

You know she has to be getting on their nerves if THIS is the best the media Obama Lackeys got on Sarah Palin, then rest assured she is a virtual shoe-in for POTUS come 2012 if she decides to run.

Or the MANY clothing products, and other items with the US flag improperly displayed on them. These should not be happening but do, so they’d lose on that basis, federal law is ignored regularly.

Point is, though that there isn’t a flag on the bus paint scheme. It’s red and white stripes only. And... why? Because Sarah knows it’s wrong to use the flag this way.. and wouldn’t.
