This came from the idiotic Rock the Vote campaign.

Encouraging young people to vote is a wonderful idea.

Using the American Flag to swaddle you kid is really a slap in the face of the people who respect the flag. I used to have problems with athletes who would drape themselves in the stars and stripes after some kind of event or game. I got used to it after I saw that they weren't really abusing it or dragging it all over the floor, But, using it as a blanket?

Sorry.

IT's like remembering how much you love the flag AFTER you get called on about your lapel fixings.
I really shouldn't notice that, after all, love of country or the qualifications for leading the country do not rest in your jewelry, flying a jet or spending 5 years in a jail during wartime.
