A diary over at Daily Kos has some very interesting photographs. Everybody should go and see them. Very telling. The two that really make me nauseous:
Lets trample our flag. What idiot thought this was a good photograph, and why didn't these folks perhaps realize that this was not a good idea?

Forgive me but ...
Forgive me but these pics looked doctored to me. Anybody else?
Take Care, Be Good and don't play in the street!

I fear there is a Photoshop
I fear there is a Photoshop in the woodpile here. He has walked all over the flag on many occasions but I don't think this is one of them. Rove would not allow such a gaffe.
See here. It's still
See here. It's still possible they are doctored, but not likely. (Didn't they already get in trouble for that recently?)
I was just about to post
I was just about to post that link myself. Reuters could seriously damage their reputation if they did publish a photoshopped picture, so it's doubtful (but not impossible) that those pictures have been retouched or adjusted in any way.

Not Doctored.
These are actual photgraphs. How come people who are all against flag burning never seem to have read the US Federal Flag Code?
"Mission Accomplished"
This is the same team that brought you Bush in a flight jacket on the deck of an aircraft carrier. And you wonder how they could have thought up completely inappropriate prop styling on the 5th anniversary of a national tragedy?
Hell, we're lucky he didn't use a New York fireman's jacket as his doormat at that mockery of a memorial.
Don't tread on me.
Guess it's too late to worry about that.

I'd rather be cycling.
