Ask any Boy Scout, "What is the proper way to dispose of the American Flag?" I'm certain the answer will not be, "Put it in a trash bag and throw it out with the rest of the garbage."
Yet that is exactly what Democratic organizers did following the Democratic National Convention in Denver. 84 garbage bags filled with an estimated 12,000 American flags were found in and around dumpsters near a loading dock.
But the Democrats explained. They claim the flags were "proudly waved by 75,000 people," yet these flags looked brand new, still bundled by the dozen. The Democrats also claimed that "McCain supporters" - the Boy Scouts and the VFW - "wrongfully took" the flags in a "cheap political stunt." In other words, the Democrats are claiming the Boy Scouts and the VFW STOLE THEM!!
The Republicans passed out some of them at a rally in Colorado Springs and plan to donate the rest to veteran memorials across the country. Couldn't the Democrats have thought of that instead of throwing them out with the rest of the garbage?
For a little fun, let's play a game. It's called,
"Find the flag at the DNC"
PS. Notice that I never said that Democrats "hate this symbol of ourcountry."
