Democrats Caught In Lie

Oh sweet, sweet justice for Democrats.

Democrats are not caring for their Stars and Stripes. At least that’s the message out of John McCain’s campaign.

McCain supporters, claiming they rescued 12,000 miniature American flags from the site of Barack Obama’s nomination acceptance speech last Thursday, redistributed the orphan flags to audience members ahead of a McCain rally in Colorado Springs on Saturday.

The move was an overt swipe at Obama from a campaign whose motto has been “country first.” But Democratic convention organizers claimed the flags were not going to be discarded — but instead were snatched from the site of Obama’s historic address to carry out a “cheap political stunt.”

It would normally be a "he said, she said" type of thing, but wait!  There's photos!

 

This next one is my favorite, as it shows the true nature of those at the DNC.

Right next to the garbage.  How can they claim that "the flags were not going to be discarded" when it's in the same bag as used water bottles and pizza boxes? But let's listen to what they have to say:

Damon Jones, spokesman for the Democratic National Convention Committee, released a statement saying McCain should applaud the fact that thousands of American flags were “proudly waved” at their convention.

“But instead his supporters wrongfully took leftover bundles of our flags from the stadium to play out a cheap political stunt calling into question our patriotism,” he said.

How is it that your "leftover bundles of our flags" are sitting in the garbage?  The fact is, is that you're lying when caught with your proverbial pants down and are trying to place blame where it doesn't belong.  Sounds awfully like a normal Democratic trait doesn't it?  When cornered, blame others.

Nancy Pelosi does that a lot.  When asked about her dismal record, she blames Bush.  When John Murtha is cornered about the charges against fellow Marines he called "cold blooded killers" were being dropped, rather than apologize, he pulls this crap:

Not, "I'm sorry, I was wrong".  But, "I enlisted and served in Korea and Vietnam". Harry Reid said "The war in Iraq is lost". 

 

Yet, not even a year later, everything has turned around because of the surge in troops, new tactics, and the Iraqi security forces stepping up. Children blame others when cornered.  Unfortunately, I have come to expect Democrats to do the same. 

 

Come on guys, how about once, just once, I'd like to hear "I'm responsible", or "Yep, you're right". I've said you've been right on many occasions.  I've pointed out the rhetoric about Al-Qaeda from Obama is correct and we should push harder against them and Pakistan.  Of course, I want that backed up with action, not just empty words.
