Get em patriotic while you can
Start em young in their patriotic growing up. There’s no better way that the Little Patriots diapers. From what I found these diapers were a hot commodity after 9-11 but no longer in production. Smart way to entice the American people after a terrorist attack by becoming more patriotic eh?
The U.S. Flag Code under Respect For The Flag:
“The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard.”

Change? Not sure I believe in this change.
I’ve written in the past about Obamas face showing up on our American flag. This time, the blue union of the American flag has been replaced with Obamas face. Granted, as always there’s a high possibility this is an imported flag, or at least from someone who doesn’t know how the flag code works. You really just shouldn’t change up anything ont he blue union of the American flag unless it’s an actual flag authorized by the American Government.
President or not president, I think it’s about time we stopped modifying the American flag with Obamas face. “Change we can believe in” shouldn’t really apply to the American flag. I really can’t recall any American flag with Bill Clintons face on it, but I’ll keep looking.

This could kick you in the ass
World, I’d like you to meet the most patriotic donkey on the planet. Not only is he dolled up in the American flag, but his eyes light up. Bet of all, he’s a hood ornament. Roll down the street with this stubborn donkey on your hood and nobody will think you’re not patriotic. Did I mention it has illuminated eyes?

Oh I do love me some Beatles. And granted this is a fabric reproduction of a photo, take a closer look at the bad flag etiquette taking place. When the original photo was taken, that flag would have had all those Beatles as well as their chair standing on it. Notice how it drapes down the floor to become almost carpetlike. And yes, they are a standin’ on it. On top of that alone, the flag is also touching the ground, which is another part of bad flag etiquette.
According to the U.S. Flag code:
“The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water, or merchandise.”
Well boys, you succeeded at great music. But you failed at American flag etiquette. Oh yeah, and for all your Beatles fans out there you can buy this at Hot Topic =)

Bad bad bad....
I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. If your American flag is looking bad, take it down, retire it properly, and give it some respect with a proper flag burning ceremony. Don’t just leave it on the flagpole to flap around in a horrific manner. Take it to your local VFW, contact an American made flag manufacturer, or if all else fails send it to me and I’ll make sure it gets put to rest properly.
U.S. Flag code states “The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.”
Don’t be naughty this year with your flag etiquette. Santa won’t bring you squat.

Go Whiggins!
Dear Whiggins family,
This year I was going to send you a little something for Christmas. I was thinking a patriotic flag bowl of a beautiful American flag. Now I was going to get you a correct flag, but decided instead to get your name imprinted on a bowl with an American flag and it’s 10 stripes and 8 stars. It just costs too much money to add all the stars and stripes. And since this probably made out of America, I decided to just opt out on a correct flag and instead have your name painted onto the bowl.
Enjoy the movie….and bad flag etiquette!
Sincerely, A non-importer.

The 15 original colonies?
Well it has 13 stars. And 15 stripes. Last time I checked those weren’t the correct parts for an American flag. That would include an American flag lapel pin. Sad thing is…you can find some of these online at some top flag retailers. Wear this to the local UN meeting and you’re sure to catch a buzz. (or get slapped).
Way to go importers, you obviously did your homework on this one.

Don't forget to wash your hands!
Gotta say…I laughed. I guess this is a political one, so all you bush fans I apologize if you’re offended. I’m sure there’s more throughout this blog that could offend though right? So here, the left toilet…good to go. Do your deed. The right one though in all fairness, “Flushing American down the drain” in its message. Ok, could be feasable in todays eceonomy. However taking a daily tinkle on the American flag…not cool. Now this isn’t a real flag….so keep your hate mail to yourself. However you shouldn’t take a leak on anything that even resembles the American flag.
Sad thing is, I doubt this was made in China.

Interesting
Every once in a while, you may have to ask yourself just how far you want to take something. I’m all for the rainbow flag, I’m all for the American flag….what I’m NOT for is merging the two together. The American flag is a symbol of a country, not a lifestyle or choice. So to change the colors is not only flipping off your country, but it’s also flag desecration.
UNITED STATES CODE – TITLE 4 -CHAPTER 1 – THE FLAG
1. Flag; stripes and stars on
The flag of the United States shall be thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate red and white; and the union of the flag shall be forty-eight stars, white in a blue field.
2: Same; additional stars
On the admission of a new State into the Union one star shall be added to the union of the flag; and such addition shall take effect on the fourth day of July then next succeeding such admission.
Go ahead, feel free to send me hate mail. I’m merely pointing out the bad flag etiquette and nothing more.
