How does this have a hoax tag, when you have zero evidence that the flags were being picked up and not thrown away? I'm just wondering what you guys are seeing that I'm missing?
I really don't think the story is that big of a deal, but I think the hoax tag is a bit premature.

Like far too many of the stories pushed by the McCain campaign, and embraced by Fox News and far-right blogs, it's not true.

Intelligent people watch news from both sides and the middle. Those who limit themselves to only biased reporting from one side, well their not so intelligent. This is not a football game where its OK to root only for one side. This is the real world where all sides are relevant and those who adhere to only one sides point of view are the problem.

If you mean I lean to the Moderate or Conservative side, thats true. I was however ready to vote for Obama out of anger until he broke his promise on public funding. Then I shifted toward McCain. Now I'm back to the undecided column.
I think the problem is that when people here run into a genuine Moderate they don't know how to pigeon hole us because we agree with issues on both sides and agree with neither side completely. Is that what your referring too?
In what way is limiting your information to that coming from only one side intelligent if I might ask?
My History??
From the age of 18 until Reagan's second run I was a Democrat and voted straight Party Ticket. I still kick myself for Carter. He destroyed me financially.
This time I'm at a loss. I don't like either Parties Candidate at the moment.
I'm also a Pacifist who protested the Vietnam War. I am opposed completely to violent protest and I'm 100% for peaceful, lawful protest. I also realize that not all wars can be avoided and I was for going into Afghanistan.
I am a Moderate and a Swing Voter, just like the majority of Americans who actually vote. I think I'm a quite normal person on a board where out of the norm people rule. A round peg in a square hole.
I'm here because I believe in UFO's and want to know what they are. I've seen two and possibly a third that I'm sure is an unknown to us military craft. I have other good reason to believe that and someday when I'm in the right frame of mind I'll share.
Sorry OP for going off topic.
