Time to change flags
If B*sh grabs this one, it's time to take down the Stars and Stripes, put it in mothballs, and run up the Jolly Roger flag.

A pirate flag is so much more appropriate as a symbol of our
once-democratic nation, don't you think?

2. I was thinking of hanging up the flag with a black sash
because if * wins American democracy has died. We need to mourn it.

4. My Flag
Is out there, hanging upside down right now. I suggest that we all do this.

3. That would be an insult...
... to a good many hard- robbing swashbucklers out there.

The real flag now would be flying the Stars and Stripes upside down. Flying the flag upside down is the traditional signal for a ship in distress.

It's the California flag ;-)
