The rape room thing. Never mind.

Oh, BTW, I say "lies during speech". Lies about nuclear weapons and war, no less.

2. just as a minor point of fact..
the speech is not mandated...just a report...it was usually done via letter until TV became a big deal...

6. So why are the Right-Wingers...
...concentrating on the boobie exposure and not Kid Rock wearing an American flag as a poncho? It was NOT a "flag design," it was an actual flag with the little strings to attach it to a pole, with a hole cut in it so it could be worn. To do something to the flag as a protest is one thing, but as an act of "patriotism?"

Maybe if Janet covered her breast with a miniature flag, that would have been fine.

8. The ironic thing about the Kid-Rock flag thing ...
is that the proper thing to do with it after he desecrated it is burn it. Too bad he didn't do that. They could have finished the HT show with a lynching.

I also believe that as far as respecting the flag goes, simply wearing it (whether it is actually a flag or clothing that resembles a flag) is considered desecration. The fact that he then threw it on the ground puts it over the top.

Cheers
Drifter
