I'm Selling Flag Pins 10 x $1. Buy Your Patriotism Here!

This is as silly as a diary as you'll ever see but it does have a point to it. First of all I am not selling the damn things, I have better things to do. But republicans are. And you want to know why? well let me tell you.

Why work on your patriotism when you can buy it. That is the republican way "my friends". The same people that brought to us the most disruptive and nefarious administration in the history of this country is saying trust us to keep you safe, again, why, cause they own a flag pin factory.

When ABC decided to ask questions about flag pins I said to my self, hmmm, how interesting,  I guess when John McCain said he was running on his experience in Washington he wasn't kidding. He knows the MSM falls for stupid, irrelevant and non-sensical issues and he is %100 right -- I mean the guy lost the nomination in 2000 because Bush whacked him with the "black baby" story as a black man I see nothing wrong with having a black baby but I guess to republicans its a big issue, I mean is not like no one knew McCain cheated on his first wife to marry Cindy and live like a pimp, he didnt have a baby but he kept trying like he wanted one -- as we all saw during the "debate" or might I dare say, circular sniper fire with Obama in the middle.

To conclude I want to write about things you cant do with a flag pin:

- It wont fix your economy (You cant swipe it for cheap gas)

- It wont keep you safe (like wheres Bin Laden)

- It wont bring the troops home (like they even try anymore)

- It wont exempt you from suffering during a natural disaster a.k.a Katrina Syndrome

- It wont keep social security available to you when you retire (yea, specially with that deficit growing)

- It wont put your kids thru college either (college is not important this days. Walmart is the only employer that counts)

... I could go on forever, but now I know why republicans say flag pins are important:

THEY ARE USELESS JUST LIKE REPUBLICANS. READ THE LIST!
