American Flag 'Outlawed' by Edwards
Vacuous veep wannabe John Edwards has banned the American flag at campaign appearances, according to a left-wing weekly.
New Times Broward Palm Beach, a monomaniacally Bush-hating yuppie tabloid in Fort Lauderdale, tells the sad story of Banjo the Democrat clown and how Edwards' handlers censored him.
During a recent campaign appearance in West Palm by the sue-happy senator, professional clown Jack "Banjo" Williams of Delray Beach showed up early to nab himself a good spot.
"Before the start of the speech, 70-year-old Williams worked the crowd in a star-spangled outfit that made him look like a patriotic Raggedy Andy with a top hat. Williams, a retired social worker, pulled an American flag from his clenched fist for a bit of magic. 'This flag right here doesn't belong to the Republicans,' he said. But the trick drew the ire of an Edwards camp volunteer. All signs and flags are outlawed at the event, Banjo was frostily informed," New Times reported.
Patriotism (Score:2)
Seeing as more foreigners than Americans support Kerry, the rule does makes sense, though. I wonder how many "lawful" Chinese, Cuban, French, and Palestinian flags there were at the rally.
