We didn’t throw them out, the Republicans stole them?


Damon Jones - DNCC press relations said that the Dems put the flags in great big trash bags to send them back for redistribution and that Republican operatives absconded with them.

If that were true, why didn’t the Dems come out and say a week ago that 12,000 flags were stolen after the DNC?

    The Boyscouts found them so now the Boy scouts are thieves I guess.

    Now, remember that you just said “if that were true”.
    This is how bad rumors get started children.

  3. Toni Says:

    Obama probably told them to throw them out since he doesn’t believe in saluting the flag.

    i agree with you
    but we dont know the entire story so…..
    its not 100% certain on which side is telling the truth
    and i doubt that we will ever know
    but as long as these flags arent in garbage bags and trash cans
    i am happy

    another great move by McCains camp

    McCains people contacted the Vendor
    first after the Convention and asked if he could
    retrieve the flags which were left all over the floor

    Democrats dont really care about FLags

    The DNC doesn’t want us to know they lose things easily.

    Would The Media have covered it ?

  8. ne0_dude Says:

    They were found next to DUMPSTERS in TRASH BAGS.

    You do the math.

    First of all, even if it’s not true that doesn’t make us less patriotic. I don’t save any of my flags. But I do visit memorial. I have been to our memorial in Pearl Harbor & the one near omaha beach (Normany), I’ve also gone to where the twin towers fell.

    They were prolly made in China

    When Betsy Ross sat down with George Washington, Robert Morris and George Ross in 1776. The four discussed Betsy sewing together the first American flag, and shortly thereafter the Star Spangled Banner was born.Today the ghost of Betsy Ross is restless as America’s flag is being sewn overseas and then imported to the United States. China is the last Communist giant, and was once a sworn enemy of America yet they lead the world in exporting the Stars and Stripes.

    On your precious Republicrats’ watch. Tsk tsk

    I really don’t know why people thumb me down for this. I mean, it is factual. While Democrats and Republicans are running the country, American flags are being made in China and imported here. Is there nothing wrong with this picture? Really?

    LOOKS LIKE THE DEMOCRATS GOT CAUGHT WITH THEIR PANTS DOWN

    sounds like a big to do about no real big deal at all. This waste of time story must be on Fox.

  13. Country Says:

    Yes, some flags were thrown in the trash, and some were probably meant for redistribution.
    I find it more offensive that the state of Texas feels the need to fly their flag at the same height as the American flag. A conscious disrespectful choice.

  14. Son of Liberty Says:

    And isn’t it amazing that they were being returned in DUMPSTERS too?!?! Is that a new kind of shipping container? Is there anything the Democrats WON’T lie about?!?!

    McCain/Palin ‘08

    Yeah .. Right !! … Boy Scouts are theives !!!

    Democrats IF … OBAMA was a WHITE man WITH the SAME LACK of Qualifications, HE would have been - L A U G H E D - out of the Nomination process in the BEGINNING !!!!

    CHANGE … is ALL that you will get back from the Socialist / Communist / Liberal / Marxist Democrats, when they TAKE your hard earned paycheck from you to give it to able bodied people, “FEEDERS”, who do NOT want to get off of their ***** and actually get a job !!

    Our wonderful government hand-out programs !!

    Please, TRY to .. HOPE .. in one hand and SPIT in the other hand!
    Which one is filling up the fastest ??
    .
    We need to make sure that the person that represents AMERICA is PRO-AMERICA !!! WE NEED to make sure that EVERY man, woman, and child, KNOW how ANTI-AMERICAN Obama and his Reverend(S) ARE !!!

    Would a CONTINUAL 20 years of “second hand smoke” have a negative affect on the other people in the area ??

    Would a CONTINUAL 20 years of “Anti-American Preachings” have a negative affect on the other people in the area ??

    John F. Kennedy, a Democrat, was sworn in as the 35th President of THE United States of America, at noon on January 20, 1961. In his inaugural address he spoke of the NEED for ALL Americans to be ACTIVE CITIZENS, famously saying, “Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.”

    Please NOTICE that it said DEMOCRAT - NOT Socialist and / or Communist and / or Liberal and / or Marxist Democrat !!

    It means this country is only as strong as the people in it. It means get off your *** and do something!!!

    By the People and For the People !!! .

    And why did you say they were wrinkled up and put in trash bags? It seems like if you were proud of your Convention and didn’t need the flags anymore someone would have offered them to people that attended the event as a souvenir. If you love the flag, why wouldn’t you have been proud to get one? A member of my family died in combat for that flag, and for you.

    people the are not proud of this country don’t care about the flag.
