Topic: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

Democrats brought out tens of thousands of American flags to Invesco Field, saluting Barack Obama as he spoke from the Styrofoam columns of the Barackopolis at the conclusion of the Democratic convention.  Perhaps some of them took the flags home as souvenirs, but where did the rest go?  According to David Harsanyi, they went into the trash

yikes You'd think these extreme leftist Democrat leaders would have gotten their followers to live what they preach in being environmentally friendly by properly disposing of the flag. wink

And the hatred of the United States by leftists is yet again confirmed.

Everything bad in the economy is now Obama's fault. Every job lost, all the debt, all the lost retirement funds. All Obama. Are you happy now? We all get to blame Obama!

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

Yes, they want to believe the thing they have followed is still the thing it once was.

Thus why conservatives kinda receeded recently... we know the Republican party was giving lip service to us, and expecting our votes. The whiplash was so severe they actually pushed a very conservative agenda this convention, and Palin got the Veep slot.

look for the m.hh type email addy to reply to.

There will be a big day for us in 2010 in my opinion.

There are very specific ways you are suppose to use to get rid of the flag.

@ Gladiator and the rest of you leftist boobs.

You know whats pretty pathetic ??
You leftists are the angry bunch.  If you all dont get your way, you go on a mission of personal destruction, any way possible.

You all control the Media, and you control Academia.
In these forums, you fill the uniformed w/your control of the media, and indoctrinate the young with your leftist teachers.

Liberals talk down about America, down play the service of the American military, and appose any foreign policy that involves killing the enemy.

If the GOVT. isn't in control of every aspect of life, from birth to burial, you all will not be happy.

You all HATE your present sitting President....that is pathetic.
You all wish ill will on your present sitting President.....that is pathetic.

IF, Obama, and I'm beginning to see that as only a small if, IF... Obama wins the presidential election...... He will be my president. 
I will address him as President Obama, and I will defend him as my president.
I'm sure I will be pissed at his agenda, more importantly his Justice choices, and I will be happy to see him replaced...Im sure.

BUT.... as my president, I will show him respect befitting his office.

Its a FACT, that Conservatives, and Most Republicans LOVE this country and all it stands for.
Liberals, and most Democrats Dont love this country.  They dont like what it stands for, and they wish they could drastically change that.

With this love of country, comes a DEEP Respect and honorable Devotion to the symbol of this great country.
We love our Flag.
We love our country
We support, with out question our military, especially the individual service of each of its members. 
We dont question one's motive or reason for serving.

Tossing a flag in the garbage is just wrong.

You all just dont understand that.

Because, you dont care about America, or what it stands for.
Therefor, you dont care about its Symbol.....

You dont care about how the flag is treated.

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

Another point.

I would [poop] on the Iranian flag, or the NoKo flag, if I came across one....but.

As much as I dispise and really dislike Quebecians.....Esecially you fairies from Montreal that boo the American Anthem in your stadiums/arenas.
BUT, I would make sure a Canadian flag found its way to a proper place to be secured by a Canadian.

As much as I dislike French Socialists, and the rest of you pathetic French 'mos, I would secure a French flag.
Belgium.  Errrr.  Yea, your flag too.  hmmmmm.

My fellow Anglo nations flags would be secured w/o a doubt in my mind.


Imagine, fellow Americans treating the US Flag like that.....after a major party presidential acceptance speech ??
Unreal.

Yea, this will piss off a lot of Americans.


I wonder how many Democrats or undecideds would feel outraged at this ??
Any of you out there ?

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

I have a floor cloth with the Belgian flag on it. smile

It's a piece of cloth. Whatever your patriotism (which is an outdated concept anyway) wants to die for is an immaterial thing. The flag is not the thing itself.

Can you tell the difference? The symbol representing it and the real thing?

If you can't tell them apart you need to grow somewhat intellectually.

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

BW: The fact that people in the US can dislike, even hate their president, is a sign that your country is actually much more advanced. If they can dispose of their flags like a piece of paper, then they are advanced, just the same as in the same country you can treasure your president and your flag... freedom, its what the constitution is all about... try and remember that before you make more of an idiot of yourself

Yes I know... not that I worry, my countrymen helped put your flag on the moon...

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

Don't mention it, I have so many problems deciding which flag to burn and which flag to secure, damn.

And troubled times like the Coalition of the WILLING...
When those euretards couldn't make their mind, you had to buy flags to then burn them directly...
now I had to get a new french flag... AGAIN.. most burnt ever.. he he

German one might be in peril though... can't these people make up their mind ??


The cool thing was we were able to buy iranian flags when they were buying Tomcats.
...Afghans ones when they were kicking ruskies.
So at least we had some flags to burn already.

Damn all these people who do not possess HISTORY or decent (christian american-interests-friendly) VALUES..

...now I always carry a small memo to know what to do with what flag..

We're almost back to the point where we had commies all over like Chaplin, difficult to know who's good and who's evil, need some more simple axis out there.

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

@ Fool.

Hate is a heavy word for a person you disagree with, and just happened to be voted in by his country 2X.  The 2nd Time, quite comfortably in a time of war.

You, and your pompousness miss the point.
We, Americans take the symbolism of our flag quite seriously.
As a veteran, we take treatment of our flag quite seriously.  We believe it to be treated as a living breathing thing.

If you all like to use your flag as a rag on the floor......so be it.    Shows what respect you have for your country..... in my humble opinion that is.
After all, that is all that really matters, is my opinion anyway.

Constitution ??  ROFL.  You dont have a clue what the Constitution is all about.

After all, Its not about WHO tossed the flag.  Its more about their state of being.....and yours here. 
Because how you treat your flag, betrays your belief system. 

Got it now ??

Isnt it always YOU to miss the point entirely......almost always ?
Fool ?

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

BW for the record, i didn't read your post

i stopped when i heard leftist tongue, i just find it really funny, annoying, stupid(all at the same time) how you can categorize people so easily,
there is no such a thing as a leftist

God did not say oh, i'm guna make him a leftist and him rightist =S.... YOU can NOT EVER, EVER, EVER make a judgement on a group of people by the actions of a few, and i'm not guna say this story isn't true, even though i'm having a hard time believing it tongue, but for me atleast, when you say leftist, the rest of the post is meaningles as to me that's saying everything else is also all assumptions


and BTW as far as flags go, sure you should honour it
but honouring doesn't mean you're a great american, it doesn't mean jack shit, other than you respect your country
if you wanna be a great american, you help other americans, you serve america(doesn't only mean in battle), you do a good cause,
if you don't wanna do that, and only wanna respect the flag and then you think you're a great american, you're sadly mistaken

Re: Flags from Democrat Convention, Tossed in the Trash.....is Rescued.

Glad, you're way off-topic.

Anyways, the American flag may be a piece of cloth, but to many Americans, it means a lot.  The American flag changes with American history.  Just like our nation, it grows beside us and as such, it has gone through many changes.  Nations have flags to not only discern itself from other nations, but also to express what that flag symbolizes.  In America, our flag stands for everything we've united for, fought for, died for.  And for an American to just throw it away like it was a cheap toy is disrespectful to the symbolism of the flag.  To see it as "just a piece of cloth" as an example of "advancement" is almost as retarded as saying "it's just land, tear it up and build a high rise."

Yet again, I am forced to post this particular gem from the late and great Bill Hicks.

""Hey buddy, my daddy died for that flag."

"Really? I bought mine. Yeah, they sell them at K-Mart and shit."

"He died in the Korean War."

"Wow, what a coincidence. Mine was made in Korea."
