Say NO to the removal of GOD and the American Flag at public & National Ceramonies!
The latest Facebook meme:

Say NO to the removal of GOD and the American Flag at public & National Ceramonies!

(while I was aware we'd done away with prayer at some ceremonies, I have never seen a ceremony where the flag could not be displayed)

The cause now has 433,118 members and has raised $772.

(That's less than a penny per member -- I see this means a lot to them)


Their mission: Save our Flag from beig removed from Schools and National Places !

(While they are saving the flag from removal from schools, they might want to brush up on their spelling)

7. I thought RWers hated atheists ...
I guess they only like atheists (and enamored admirers of murderers) who spout what they want to hear ... goes by the initials of Ayn Rand ...

2. Frankly, I'm more concerned about removing EDUCATION from our schools.
The flag? Being removed from schools? Where do they come up with this stuff?

4. My guess would be that
Some school was painting a room and removed the flap from the room. Some Mom or teacher or principal overreacted and of course automatically decided that the liberals are trying to take the flag out of schools. Just a guess.

10. Wingnut Radio
Yesterday, I had to listen to a woman on a news show carried on fundie radio make the point that comments made by Think Progress regarding the tornadoes in Alabama and climate change were far worse and far more offensive than anything Pat Robertson ever said on the 700 Club. Pat, after all, was speaking off-the-cuff and later apologized. She went on to remind us that climate change theory was completely discredited in 2009's "Climategate."

..wingnut radio is where they get this stuff.

16. I think we're describing the same thing -- just different labels.
An inability to think above the waist line.

6. Someone should have been focused on spelling in school
and a bit less fixated on God and the flag, methinks....


Maybe we should start an even more ridiculous competing rumor and get them really fired up. :evilgrin:

8. "Ridiculous competing rumor "
Edited on Sat Apr-30-11 11:40 AM by OmahaBlueDog
Mandatory Islamic understanding classes

Compulsory school assemblies on the impact of gun violence

Removal of NASCAR references in all American school books

Forced use of spell-check in all internet correspondence


The possibilities abound

15. I like the "forced use of spell-check" in all internet correspondence
They'd all buy #1 immediately and unfortunately, some of the more paranoid gun advocates here would believe #2.... The best pranks are those that only the true fools believe, I think. Besides, forced use of spell check would be such a service to us all!

14. I found a website and this still doesn't make sense.
http://www.causes.com/causes/509031-say-no-to-the-removal-of-god-and-the-american-flag-at-public-national-ceramonies/about

Something to do with a 9/11 charity, but this has nothing to do with 9/11. All I know is that I support God being in public spaces owned by private individuals and the flag being wherever anyone wants to put it (for the most part).
