Whatever obviously didn't look at the chairs.
Or maybe she thought is was a stage set from The Three Bears.
Obviously she believes in fairy tales because she's buying Obama's crap.

Whatever.

BO did the same thing getting off Marine 1 in his early days. My wife caught it and pointed it out. The DVR is great for being able to rewind the TV!

I wish I could be going to Homecoming but I started a new job this week. I would like to meet all of you thread screachers in person. A few of youse would have probably awakened on Sunday morning with a US flag tattooed on your arse. : )

Partying is never boring, Charlotte. Ask Al Lighton someday. He made the mistake of falling asleep in our hotel room at Torquefest II in the middle of the festivities.

So is it just that we can't fly the flag in a temporary set up at the airport? Or not on our own base?

The original article seems to state the situation pretty clearly.


quote:

The many nations helping Haiti recover from the devastating earthquake that struck there have set up their own military compounds and fly their flags at the entrances.

France's tricolor, Britain's Union Jack and even Croatia's coat of arms flap in the breeze.

But the country whose contributions dwarf the rest of the world's — the United States — has no flag at its main installation near the Port-au-Prince airport.
.
.
.
The Obama administration says flying the flag could give Haiti the wrong idea.

"We are not here as an occupation force, but as an international partner committed to supporting the government of Haiti on the road to recovery," the U.S. government's Haiti Joint Information Center said in response to a query about the flag.




It's a shame that BO can't be proud to display the flag of a country that gives so much aid to the world.

I like this guy, he needs to be an advisor to the wimps in Washington that have no respect for the flag unless it serves their political goals. Patriotism is not a fad it is a way to conduct yourself.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nONjlZ8YMkA

While it may seem extreme to civilians it is perfectly understandable to those that served.

The men and women of USSOUTHCOM and supporting service capabilities and people (with USNORTHCOM supporting) did a fantastic job in Haiti. It is an abomination not being able to display OUR Country's flag ANYWHERE.

The flag of our Country, Colorado and Canada is raised and lower each day where I work. I would not have it any other way.

That guy is a moron and so is the anchor on that TV station. So is Neil Cavuto on Fox. I saw another YouTube clip where Cavuto made the same false claim that flying another flag over the U.S. flag is illegal. It is not. That guy is nothing more than a thief. He stole someone's flag.

Emphasis is mine:

quote:

On the national level the Federal Flag Code provides uniform guidelines for the display of and respect shown to the flag. In addition to the Code, Congress has by statute designated the national anthem and set out the proper conduct during its presentation. The Code is designed “for the use of such civilian groups or organizations as may not be required to conform with regulations promulgated by one or more executive departments” of the federal government. Thus, the Flag Code does not prescribe any penalties for non-compliance nor does it include enforcement provisions; rather the Code functions simply as a guide to be voluntarily followed by civilians and civilian groups.

The Federal Flag Code does not purport to cover all possible situations. Although the Code empowers the President of the United States to alter, modify, repeal, or prescribe additional rules regarding the flag, no federal agency has the authority to issue “official” rulings legally binding on civilians or civilian groups. Consequently, different interpretations of various provisions of the Code may continue to be made. The Flag Code itself, however, suggests a general rule by which practices involving the flag may be fairly tested: “No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America.”5 Therefore, actions not specifically included in the Code may be deemed acceptable as long as proper respect is shown.




Link

Here is a Tea Partier violating the Flag Code. Will Jim Brossard steal this lady's pants? I doubt it.



And here is Sarah Palin violating the Flag Code. Will Jim Brossard steal Sarah's flag? I doubt it.



Jim Brossard is a moron and a racist vigilante. He is not a patriotic hero. He made up his own law and enforced it. No one has the right to do that. Only Congress can make law.

If you want to be patriotic you should first learn something about your country. Don't make up lies like flying another flag over the U.S. flag is illegal. You can fly any flag you want. It is not illegal to be unpatriotic. That's one of the cool things about this country. We have freedoms here that people in other countries do not.

Interesting your choice of picture there. I went to a Tea Party meeting last weekend just to see what they had going on. Signed up for their emails. This is an email from Friday. I have no idea what they may or may not really know about people using that BO Socialist picture, but the Tea Party movement certainly isn't promoting it. At least not the group local to me. Of course they all take their marching orders from Fox News, so they must all be on the same page.

This is an easily provable lie being propagated by the teabaggers and Fox. If you believe this nonsense, it shows you either are a dupe or too stupid to check it out by verification. 1 minute with google will show the obvious. The teabaggers proved this weekend that they share basic beliefs with the Ku Klux Klan - racists and homophobes. The only difference is the teabaggers wrap themselves in flags and the Klan uses sheets.}

Sir, you are emotional. At best. You disparaged an entire group by using insulting epithets (teabaggers and Klan cousins) and then categorized the entire group as "racist" and "homophobe" by the actions of a few.

Then people who disagree with you are "dupes" or "stupid". m2me's preferred insult is "moron". Your audience has to wonder about your level of maturity.

Nice try. Disagreeing with me doesn't make one a dupe or stupid. Posting obvious lies that can be easily fact-checked does make one either a dupe, stupid, or perhaps intellectually lazy. I also haven't heard about any teabaggers showing up in Washington to protest the overt racism and homophobia displayed by some of their members. Let's see them issue a press release about how their core values are in support of equal rights for minorities. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for them to do the right thing. In reality, the teabaggers just outed themselves this weekend.

I've seen that video before. What I always wonder is if anybody told those guys what they were doing is wrong, and why. I see alot of other flags flown without an American flag, were they trying to do the right thing by flying the American flag, but are ignorant to the how and why to fly 2 flags together? Don't get me wrong, I find it offensive to fly the flag like that, but if someone told them would they have maybe said "oh, I didn't know, that makes sense let me fix that" Yeah I know, doubtful but I still wonder..

Diablo1, I'm sorry, what did I miss? Did some lunatic scream an "N-word" at the white house or something? In D.C. I expect that's a daily thing... during the last admin. I'm sure it happened all the time.

In reality, the teabaggers just outed themselves this weekend.
???? what are you talking about?

( I'll refrain from calling you a name because you call a group of people a sexual act.....I understand you're just parroting propaganda fed you )

The 3 year old news of a neighborhood conflict over flags is a pretty tiny brush to paint a nation. I'm sure that the tea party people have harsh words to say about racist jerks, I've heard them. Why haven't you?

As long as the Tea Party protest of ObamaCare has been raise in this thread, I have a question for those that are in favor of ObamaCare.

It seems that those in favor seem to think that this is something that is a basic human right. If it is a right why is it different from all of our other rights. Other rights are things that are granted by our creator and the government isn't allowed to take away from us. ObamaCare is going to legislate that each of us will be mandated to purchase health insurance. Since when is a right something that the government requires one to purchase? That doesn't make any sense at all. I suppose that is because it isn't a right after all.
