McCain Camp ‘Rescues’ Flags From Obama Rally - America’s Election HQ
It's a shame and disgust for what Obama supporters have done to the American flags.
Days before September 11, on the same morning that John McCain and Barack Obama released a joint statement pledging to avoid politics in light of the anniversary of the terrorist attacks, McCain's campaign accused Democrats of throwing away 12,000 American flags.
"The campaign says the flags were recovered from Invesco Field after the Democrats concluded their convention there," Fox News reported, "and they are going to be used as part of the warm-up ceremonies before McCain takes the stage" for a rally in Colorado Springs, Col.
But according to a senior official involved in organizing the Democratic convention, the McCain camp is simply lying about the flags.
"All of the flags at Invesco were picked up and put in bags and into storage, along with the unused flags and campaign signs. The flags were going to be donated, and the signs were going to be sent out to be used elsewhere," the official said, speaking anonymously since he was not authorized to talk to the press.
Fox News' Carl Cameron and Bonney Kapp reported that they had "been told" that "a vendor at Invesco Field found the flags, which were going to be thrown out, and turned them over to the McCain campaign."
The Democratic convention official says that's not true.
"It's pretty reprehensible on their part," he said. "Someone made an assumption, took the flags, and essentially lied about what was going to happen to them. I mean, c'mon, we were never ever going to throw out flags."
It's also a lie:

Gotta love the Republicans. Always looking for bullshit to foist upon the general public. You should be ashamed for buying their lies.
In fact, do some research before you jump onto people.

The Republicans would do anything to trash Obama's image...
First, I supported Hillary Clinton, then Obama, and then McCain! I watch McCain's speech a couple of nights ago and I could be fooled by McCain's speech if I vote for him!!
I lost faith on either of the candidates, no matter if Republicans or Democrats!!!

Yup, nothing is new.
It had been happened to Clinton, Edwards, Kerry, Al Gore and other democrat candidate.
They'll do anything to bring Republic candidates down too.
Actually, that's not quite the case here. There's no comparison.
McCain dug his own grave when he chose Palin.

I disrespectfully disagreed your comment... but you are allowed your opinion.
Where have you been the past 8 years?
Do you remember when John Kerry was swift-boated by Republicans?
How about when the media torpedoed Howard Dean's chances by harping on that speech of his?
What about in 2000, when the Florida Supreme Court, dominated by Republicans, gave the election to G.W Bush?
Hello? Republicans have more shit and blood on their hands than Democrats will ever have.
Yes, I'm a bitter Democrat and yes, I'm going to call out people who cry that the Republican party is a "victim" here. It's about damn time that they were the victims for once!
OK! OK! I'll vote on Oboma...
Geez...
Great. Now you are just attacked me in order to take me down. I don't want to answer or respond to your comment since you show me no respect. Besides, I'm NOT a republic person either.
Gee, thanks for "kindly" comment.
