BREAKING!!! Flag pins are not the only pieces of patriotic attire that Barack Obama refuses to wear
During the primary season our friends on the cable news networks told us that we needed to focus on the issues that truly mattered. Flag pins, pastors, bitterness, Louis Farrakahn, the Weather Underground, you know all those issue that have a profound impact on the lives of ordinary Americans. Who needs to talk about Iraq , the economy, or health care, when we have a candidate who hates America so much that he doesn’t even wear a flag pin? They told us that they needed to focus on these pressing issues during the primary season, because by the time the general election rolled around Republicans would be going after these issues much more aggressively.

You see you haven’t even heard the whole story on the flag pin issue, but us Republicans are sure to bring it up in the general election. It turns out that John McCain is far more patriotic than Barack Obama, because not only does John McCain wear a flag pin but he also wears a flag Speedo.

Barack Obama does not wear a flag Speedo, and he obviously does not love this country if he is not willing to allow the flag to touch him intimately. John McCain does love the flag though; he loves it so much that he wears a flag Speedo which is two sizes too small so that he can get extra intimate with it.

If you vote for John McCain you will get to see him do something you will never see Obama do, you can see him strip down to his Speedo and dance for America. He will dance on the graves of the troops to help remind us of the flag they died for, he will dance at John Hagee’s abstinence only celebration to make sure nobody wants to have sex when they leave, and he will dance for freedom.

Barack Obama does not wear a flag Speedo though, that means if you vote for him you won’t get to see any old white guys gyrate their hips for America . No instead if you vote for Barack Obama you will get someone who believes that instead of focusing on the importance of flag attire we should be focusing on irrelevant issues like Iraq and the economy.

As Republicans we say screw the economy, let's focus on who wears the most patriotic clothing. Let's focus on black churches and the black people who attend those churches. Let's focus on who is bitter and who is not bitter. Let's focus on anything that gets people to look away from the real problems facing this country, and if there is anything that can make people look away it is John McCain in a flag Speedo.

God bless ‘Murika

13. It no longer matters at this point.
The flag has already been shit upon and pissed upon by those who are called to defend the Constitution.

14. Odd I remember a friend back in the late 60's or early 70's
that got arrested for defacing the flag. He sewed it to the back of his jean jacket and the wing nuts at the time said the only place for a flag was on a flag pole or on the uniform of law enforcement and military types.
