Note to Obama


Dear Mr. Obama,

Shame on your campaign for dumping 12,000 flags in the dumpster after your big show at Invesco Field. You might be happy to know that they have been rescued by a vendor at the field and will be distributed by Boy Scouts to be used in Mr. McCain's rally this afternoon. We know you didn't personally dump the flags in the dumpster but you might want to advise your volunteers to study up on the U.S. Flag code. It doesn't make such a good impression on Americans when their flag is treated with disrespect. Thanks so much.

Your Average American

You, and Mr. McCain, might better serve your time by complaining to the actual DNC committee, not Obama. The information can be found here:

I just thought he might like to know Johnny Mac is recycling his flags; he's interested in recycling, right? :)

how exactly did the RNC get wind of what was in the dumpster by a DNC event? where they snooping around with baited breath desperately waiting for something negative to find? i'll guess i'll have to go read the details before i comment further....

Pat...

If the Obama camp said that they didnt throw the flags away, why bother with this?

Its another ploy to take minds off of the real issues...dont fall for it! :)

IMHO...

Luculent

I didn't SAY Obama did it; I said they were found at Invesco. All I mean is that if he's the "leader" he might pass the word! :)

Sorry, the Huff Post is a hate machine like the Daily Kos and I can't take much they post there to heart.
