Veterans outraged.......Palin Desecrates US Flag

[rightwinger]

Kind of egotistical of her...but not surprising. Didn't she do that semi-porno spread using a US flag as a prop?

Of course it is amusing to watch the rightwingers defend her.

What amazes me is the open hypocricy of our conservative posters. Where is the outrage when one of their own is disrespectful to the flag?

They managed to run months worth of posts when Obama stood at attention during the National Anthem. An example of how he was "Un-American"
They showed outrage when Obama lightly tossed a flower on a casket rather than placing it down. Thread after thread on his arrogance

Yet Palin openly uses an American Flag as a political prop and they laugh it off as no big deal when one of their own does it

How many threads would we have if Obama had signed his name to a flag?

 

[NYcarbineer]

It's part of Sarah's 2012 strategy to outreach to the Left, was she wrong?

Frank equates Sarah Palin to someone she called a terrorist that Obama pal'ed around with.

That's fascinating.

 

[NYcarbineer]

The only way this could be better is if she was charging for her autograph.

Sarah Palin Signs a Flag, Causes Flap

Sarah Palin appears to have desecrated Old Glory at a Tea Party Express rally in Reno. Video from the event shows Palin signing a flag handed to her by a fan, thereby violating a section of the US Flag Code that states the flag "should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature," notes Salon.


Despite her party's tough stance against messing with the Stars and Stripes, Palin's Old Glory "desecration" won't likely ever be punished

Would it surprise you to know that I burn flags on a fairly regular basis?

Of course it is in flag retirement ceremonies performed by Boy Scouts.

My son was an Eagle Scout...I have burned dozens

Yep...we'd NEVER here the end of it...remember the flag pin blowup?

I can only conclude that Republicans and rightwingers think disrespecting the flag is okay if you are a Republican or a rightwinger.

 

[Sarah G]

Palin Is American as Apple Pie. She is Patriotic and loves her country. Palin and the American Flag represent America and the Patriotism that embodies it. They go together and this is no big deal.

She's a phoney who is only out for herself. When she latched onto that VP run, she has only had dollar signs in her eyes ever since.

Oh, I do want her to run but she will never be president. Who could ever take her seriously besides teaparty morons..

This from the left who supports the right to burn flags because of freedom of speech? Hipocrites!!!! If it was up to the idiot socialists on the left our flag would be the hammer and siccel of russia.

The first amendment gives you a right to burn the flag. Even Christine O'Donnell could explain that to you. You can respect the right but not respect the person doing the burning.

The Russian flag is Red, White and Blue by the way

Sarah is going for the Black Separatist vote

Why is she wrong?

 

[RadiomanATL]

They think that, if we were just smart enough, we'd be able to understand their policies. And I so want to tell 'em, and I do tell 'em, Oh, we're plenty smart, oh yeah - we know what's goin' on. And we don't like what's goin' on. And we're not gonna let them tell us to sit down and shut up.​

Don't mistake fascism for idiocy.

Palin isn't a fascist. She's an airhead who can't think beyond soundbyte phrases.

There is a difference.

She's trying to appeal to Obama's base for 2012 in the unlikely event that either Obama decides to run again or survives a primary challenge from Hillary and Mickey Mouse

Actually I believe that Sarah Palin signed the flag as a tribute to what it means, however, I am glad RW brought up the topic of amerian patriotism.

It kind of reminds me of Barak Hussein's mentor.

and let us not forget that the first time Michelle Obama became proud to be amercian was when her husband won some primaries.

This might be why Obama won't release his school transcripts.

Libs are just picky...picky...picky.

I would proudly sign the American Flag, as an American who represents the real American people.

Let's not forget how some lefties treat the american flag...

I think we can say in confidence that her intention was never to do anything bad to the american flag. After all, she is an american, not a liberal.

 

[random3434]

So I'd say this thread shows that President Obama and Sarah Palin feel the same about America, and our flag.

Good job comparing the two people!

Palin obviously has no respect for our most sacred American symbol. The arrogance to think that her name belongs on an American flag is an embarassment.

This coming from a woman who's husband advocated Alaska secession from the US

Sarah Palin is no "real" American and it shows
