This nugget just in from the CRP:
After the Dem Nat’l Convention in Denver and the temple was torn down, the DNC brain trust trash-bagged up about 12,000 American hand flags [about 8×10 inches on wooden dowels] and a 3 by 5 foot flag, to be disposed of until an Invesco Field worker found ’em and saved ’em from becoming landfill. They will be "recycled" by reportedly being used at the McCain/Palin event in Colorado Springs today. I’m sure their bio-degradability will not be tested after this event.
Thanks to Hector Barajas at the CRP for the heads-up on that one!
