What a wonderful gesture, not dipping the American flag to the Queen of the UK and her other realms at the Olympics.
You know that Queen whose troops are in the Stan along with Aussies and Kiwis.
Oh,you never dip the USA ensign I hear, well you do dip it for any rusty freighter who pays compliments to any US Warship.
So what does it boil down to, cause we are Mericans we have no manners ?
Should the USA be at the Olympics ?

Opening ceremony flag issue make US ugly Americans at London Olympics

As an American, the last thing I'm gonna do is kiss anybody else's butt because some Leftie deems it a nice gesture.

I think you know where you can go.

WW I, II and the Cold War were all won because of the USA. So, we don't bow to anyone.

The US was founded on the notion that the monarchy is a bad idea.

What better Honor could there be than Obama giving the Queen an audio collection of his speeches?

Yet when Obama won't kiss Netanyahu's butt the right wing loonies are up in arms.

What a load of typical, hypocritical self-Righteous BS!
