lol Did you think the dnc cared about the flag?

At their own convention they put them in garbage bags.

Heck they put Obamas face on our flag

But watch out if Palin takes a picture with the flag and it touches the floor thats bad

Typical Faux "News" smear piece, obviously written to be intentionally misleading. And true to form, every poster so far has, in fact, been misled by it.

That particular video is only one of TWENTY FINALISTS in a contest to choose a supporter-made ad to run on national television.

That particular video has NOT BEEN DECLARED THE WINNER at this point.

Therefore, the DNC is NOT USING THIS PARTICULAR VIDEO TO RAISE MONEY. They're using THE CONTEST ITSELF to raise money to air the ultimate winner.

The DNC is attempting to raise funds to air WHICHEVER VIDEO WINS the contest, and so far, that is an unknown.

From the website REFERENCED RIGHT THERE IN THE FAUX ARTICLE:
Quote:
Winners will be selected by 11/7/09 and notified by phone and/or e-mail by 11/9/09.

When will you people start using critical reading, thinking and investigating skills instead of jumping to wrong conclusions and/or believing everything you read on Fox Spews?

the fact that this is a finalist speaks volumes.......

Thank you. Common sense is missing from the liberal camp.

No, what speaks volumes is the outright LIE in the OP's thread title.

By the way, not to mention, NO ACTUAL FLAG WAS DESECRATED IN THAT VIDEO.

Claiming there was, shows the lack of common sense of the wing nuts.

I think that most understand the video aspect involved,...but for the DNC to use desecration of the symbol of our national heritage for advertising/campaign purposes begs scrutiny.
