Meh, I've seen flags with 9/11 bullshit all over them in the bars back home. It's all just nylon from taiwan anyways.

I don't see how it's any tackier then slapping it on lawn chairs and selling them at walmart. People print flag print on everything they can and sell it because they can make a buck. I agree that the Obama campaign probably didn't have those made up, given some of his public statements about people buying flag lapel pins in leu of actually caring about their country. |

To me, displaying a flag is something only worth doing if you do it right, and I'm pretty sure that not how its supposed to work.
I guess that does make me a flag worshiper.

I am more suprised on how much merch they slap Obama's face on and try and sell. I would find the Obama flag fairly tacky, had I not already been subjected to the Obama Coins or the tons of other memorabilia.

What I think is lame, is that we have a super crappy economy, and the federal government is wasting 150,000,000 dollars for what really should be about an hour ceremony on one day.

A) IMO if you take watergate out if the picture, Nixon would have went down as one of the better pres., He opened up the door to china, he did lay the ground work for our with draw in Vetiman. But in the end His ego got in the way.
B) In the End, big Flag guy or not. Thats one thing that makes this country great. You can do what you want, If you dont like it dont buy it. Think about it how many people had pictures of Stalin up that didnt want to.
C) last but not least, While Jester is right with our economy in the Shitter ( being one of the 7.6 % i can truly contest to this )I think the money could be spent in a better way. But I do see the need for the message this will send people both near and far. Do I think he's the great hope to end all suffering, No. But I do fell alot more inspired by him then I have been in the last 8 yrs.

I just want to know when M.L.K.'s dream of everyone living in equality turned into "All I really wanted was a black man as the President"?  |

I agree with everything posted so far.
People are horrible. That's all there is to it.
