Otherwise, there'd be a lot of strippers and Spring-Breakers without patriotic bathing suits. And that would be truly wrong.

LOL WE WUR JUST KIDDIN YALL. USA! USA! USA!
(Clearly, as the other lovely Texans have pointed out, we love our flag regardless of who's in office! AHEM MY AVATAR AHEM.)

that almost makes me like her... almost.

Also, why not just wear red, white and blue? We're a smart enough nation to understand what that particular color combination means.

@bluewine: I would. I don't give a shit either way and think this is the same sort of faux "outrage" the Republicans pull all the time.

I'm genuinely asking her if she would care. My guess is that some conservative Palin apologists would really, really care if it were a Democrat in that picture.

and as for the flag business, i think it's just another example of her laziness and inattention towards her image. sarah palin still hasn't figured out how to deal with the scrutiny she faces gracefully.

I'd think it was wrong if she were stepping on the flag or dragging it on the floor, but leaning up against it? I just can't care. And I think people who do care, whether it's a Dem or a Republican, are probably just making shit up as a show of partisan "outrage".

With that said, I'm not so sure about the 'fake-ass rabblerousing' thing, though...there were quite a few Republicans who seemed genuinely concerned that Obama didn't wear a flag pin, didn't salute the flag (which was untrue), and didn't have the flag on his plane (which was untrue).

This is going to disappoint all those people who are pulling out their flag swimwear in anticipation for the holiday weekend

Umm, Gov. Palin, I'm pretty sure you should have consulted this before aforementioned photo shoots.

By the dolt's early light
What so proudly, she failed
to respect flag decorum?

And the strumpet's red glare
Bubbies bursting in air
Gave proof through the night
That she still has bad hair

Honestly I'm just disgusted with their hypocrisy at this point. If Sarah Palin wants us to believe she's "true American" then she better fucking be respecting the decorum of the flag.
