As Bush Goes To Vietnam, White House Website Displays The Wrong Flag

Today, President Bush visits Vietnam for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit, “looking to burnish his foreign-policy credentials.” He’s off to a miserable start.

One problem: instead of displaying the Vietnamese flag, the White House graphic featured the old flag of South Vietnam. That flag hasn’t been the official flag of Vietnam since South Vietnam surrendered to North Vietnam in 1975.

2. Can they get one thing right? Just one damn thing? This would be funny if it

wasn't yet another SIMPLE thing that they could have done correctly. I mean really....you'd have to go out of your friggin way to find and post the South Vietnamese flag. It's not like the flag just recently changed or anything. Am I mistaken or aren't we doing something like 6 billion dollars in trade with them? WTF?

4. It may even have been intentional

After all, this bunch can never admit to a mistake or a defeat. In their reptilian brains, South Vietnam is still the legitimate country under a North Vietnamese occupation.

That really is how many of those fools view things.
