Pinko Magazine Hedonism + Activism

Today McCain supporters distributed 12,000 mini American flags at a rally in Colorado Springs. They claimed they “rescued” the flags from Obama’s acceptance speech in Denver were they found them in the trash. What?! They were just going to throw away flags! That’s not change you can believe in!

Shortly after the news broke, the DNC put out a statement. I’m paraphrasing here but the basic gist was “You motherfuckers! We’ve been looking for those flags! We didn’t throw away shit! We need those flags!!”

Isn’t it enough that they have the entire world believing that Barack Obama is an infant killing terrorist who tried to blow up the capitol building when he was 8? Now McCain’s people have to go and steal a gaggle of flags from Invesco Field just to shove the “Obama isn’t patriotic enough” talking point down our fucking throats one more time?!

Either that, or McCain’s campaign is so flat busted that they can’t afford their own mini flags.
