Ouch!

O’Drama O’Drama O’Drama

simply pitiful.

[The KG9 Kid]

Just brutal. Well done, whoever did that. Well done.

Democratic convention organizers claimed the flags were not going to be discarded — but instead were snatched from the site of Obama’s historic address

So has the Obama campaign asked for the return of the flags yet? You'd think they would be missed.

[scory]

No one is calling the dimrats’ patriotism into question. They would have to actually have some to do that.

[rlmorel]

They should take all of those flags, put them on sale, and donate the proceeds to various organizations such as the Navy Relief Fund, etc.

I would pay $10 at least for one.

“not going to be discarded — but instead were snatched from the site of Obama’s historic address to carry out a “cheap political stunt.” “

No they were not going to be discarded; at least until the garbage guys took the bags away..

I have been so impressed the way the the McCain campaign has caught these kind of things.

Dear Rats,

Yes we can question your Patriotism

[TASMANIANRED]

Little cheese with that whine?

[Always Right]

Democrats only wave flags when cameras are on them. Kind of like Obama visiting injuried vets.

[SandRat]

Let’s see,.. in trash bags, left by dumpter, somthing about the RATs response just doesn’t pass the smell test.

[Old Sarge]

“But instead his supporters wrongfully took leftover bundles of our flags from the stadium to play out a cheap political stunt calling into question our patriotism,”

When one's words, deeds and associates are indistinguishable from those of the enemy who is trying to kill us, not only do I question that patriotism, I am compelled by my duty as a citizen to DISPUTE IT!

[ModelBreaker]

I would pay $10 at least for one.

About 12,000 Colorado R's have them now (my family got 4) and we will tell that story every time they come out. They are in good hands.

[fhayek]

Obama throwing American flags in the garbage? Talk about a metaphor.

[Doogle]

come November

[Always Right]

Apparently it was too hard to even give flags away at the Democratic convention.

[Wiseghy]

Fox now hinting that Dems say they were “stolen”.

By Boy Scouts, no less....

[potlatch]

 

 

[Always Right]

Here is the GOP finding homes for the unused orphaned American flags.

[RochesterFan]

Great idea. Pull a “Rush vs. Harry Reid” on them - $10 apiece with funds going to help families of servicemen killed serving their country. Let’s see the Obama campaign complain about that...
