John Kerry during a 9 Sep 04 campaign stop in Des Moines, Iowa.

John Kerry wiping his feet on the Stars and Stripes. Its so hard to break well established bad habits.

[Corin Stormhands]

While I wouldn't put it past Kerry to step on the flag, at least figuratively, and while he obviously didn't correct it. I can't blame him for this.

He didn't design the platform (or if he did the campaign is in even more trouble). This is the fault of campaign/advance staff.

IMHO, flag protocol ought to be taught as part of U.S. Government classes in high school. Too many of us don't know how to property display the flag.

[Luke]

Only America's enemy would think to put our flag where it could be walked on.

Communists, socialists, liberals and democrats must all be cut from the same cloth.

[JoanneSD]

The MSM went nuts when President Bush autographed some flags.....

[inkling]

Remember the doormat at the entry of the new DNC headquarters? It had Bush's face on it and stated, "Give Bush the Boot!" A lot like Saddam having all visitors wipe their feet on Bush Sr.'s face at Saddam Int'l Airport.

[AngrySpud]

Yeah, that's it. "Affordable healthcare will make a stronger America" -- terrorists are shaking in their boots.

[xrp]

Isn't there some kind of protocol against using the US Flag in such manner?

[steplock]

I can blame Kerry easily --- HE is the one stomping all over the flag as he is so wont to do.

He doesn't give a rats ass about the flag, the constitution, or for that matter, the country --- he cares only about his own rear!

[Cicero]

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know you don't paint the flag on the floor. Even if you don't respect the flag, you don't want to make your candidate look bad.

Democrats are clueless.

I have personally seen the caskets that have been draped in "Ole Glory" on the flight line in Ramstien, Germany taking their last flight home. I have seen, talked to, and taken care of our nations heros who are wounded in battle. Those who have seen their "brother in arms" die for what this flag represents. So I am offended by anyone who has not earned the right to stand on it.

[Kirkwood]

I wouild get kicked off if I said what I really think. And to see this photo on Patriot's Day makes it all the more disgusting.

[marmar]

Are you an X Warthog Pilot? I am an X weapon loader for the "Ugly but Effective" aircraft. Now I am a medic. I loved the A-10s the best of the 3 A/C I loaded.....

[Fiddlstix]

My caption:
Why did they paint this flag on the floor? Don't they know that makes it harder to burn it?

[newsgatherer]

the junior senator from massachusetts, comrade john f. kerry "Hey, it's ok folks, this aint the French flag so it's ok to trample it. Viva la un."

[FesterUSMC]

JOHN KERRY YOU BASTARD!

[Radix]

I remember swabbing decks much uglier than this one, just before I went into Cambodia on Christmas Eve, 1969.

Gosh, my life is so interesting!

Pay no attention to those Veterans who have lived their lives behind curtains, and who have never had to endure the travails of public service.

 

They are all liars, but I have 3 purple hearts, and I love to find bleeding heart liberals who support me.

[steplock]

Nothing has changed since his days giving aid and comfort to our enemies (aka treason) in the 1970's. 

Good men died while Kerry lied!

All the Scout troops sponsored by my church in Ontario and New York State have a Camporee each year. At the campfire this year a NY troop retired a old US flag in the proper way. 350 Scouts from two countries sat in quiet reverence the whole time.

I'm sure affordable healthcare will bring back the WTC dead.
