One Man's Trash Is Another Man's Treasure

The Democrats trashed 12,000 American flags.  The Republicans found a more treasured and honorable use for them.  Surprised? 

McCain supporters said the flags were discovered by a vendor at Denver’s Invesco Field after the conclusion of the Democratic National Convention. The vendor supposedly found trash bags full of flags in and near garbage bins, and turned them over to the McCain campaign.

            

Boy Scouts were sorting through 84 bags of flags in Colorado on Saturday, before a McCain supporter had veterans distribute them to the audience.  “We want to find good homes for these flags,” radio host Dan Caplis said at the rally, adding that whatever flags remained would be placed at memorials throughout Colorado.

I'm wondering why the Democrats didn't show their kind of respect for our flag by burning them all.  But, Al Gore might have warned them about the carbon emissions, which the left hates more than patriotism...which is really saying something.

[Update] - According to Democratic officials quoted in the Huffington Post, Obama's people did not throw away American flags.  Who are you going to believe...left-wing Democrats at Huffington or your lying eyes?  Doesn't everyone store their flags in plastic bags by the trash bins?

1 I see no garbage bins in the above photos...  Yes, indeed, who am I going to believe? Woody or my own lying eyes?

Yeah, moose, follow the links and just believe that the dumped flags are at a storage facility or in someone's living room.  http://www.redstate.com/diaries/redstate/2008/aug/28/mystery-solved/

The Democrats were caught, and you have enough sense to know that they are lying and never intended to salvage the flags.

4 Woody, I agree some of the pictures at Red State show flags being disposed of improperly. But the picture above on the left show flags that are clearly stored in such a way that they can be used again in the future. Those are your 12,000 flags and your story is what should be thrown in the dumpster.

5 Moose, the upper left picture of the stored flags is after the Republicans saved them.  You can be sure that the Democrats didn't stand the flags against the wall like that, and they wouldn't be taking pictures of their storage.
