So... this ad was written in 2006?
ReplyDeleteAt a price like that how could you not buy a flag?
ReplyDeleteI remember those phone calls from the Policemans Beneficient Brotherhood or whatever demanding that you give them money. If you give them money, you get a sticker for your door... and the caller implies that the cops won't help you unless you have the sticker.
ReplyDeleteThere are times when I'm quite glad I'm not an American.
ReplyDeleteAnd Obama refuses to wear an AMERICAN flag button on his lapel! SHAME! SHAME! He who refuses to prove that he loves the flag is not a real AMERICAN.
ReplyDeleteI make love to my flag at least twice a day. And I do it in public!
From Sub-Mariner #1
ReplyDeleteSure, he ripping open Nazi submarines like sardine cans at this point in his caree.
Later, of course, the Sub-Mariner attacked America and ground the Stars 'n' Stripes under his bare bewinged heel. So who's laughing now?
