That kosher?! Walking on the flag?

Looks photoshopped.

You mean, doormats aren't littered everywhere on the American streets?

[dk]

Wouldn't know. I haven't spent much time in America.

[OCanadaOurHomeAndNativeLand]

Hmmmm, G.W. using our Flag as his DOORMAT during 9/11. Call me old fashioned, but isn't this desecration of the flag? Flag Rules and Regulation - Section 8c: “The flag should never be fastened, displayed, used, or stored in such a manner as to permit it to be easily torn, soiled, or damaged in any way.” Note: this photo was not photoshopped, it was on Reuters and alternative images are available from other reputable sources.

So, American flag ice cream cakes are out of the question?

Does that count as a flag? Meaning, if you were to take a s**t on an ice cream cake decorated as a flag, would it still be desecration of the flag, or just of the cake?

Too philosophical, you'll need to ask your chaplain.

[OCanadaOurHomeAndNativeLand]

Be a waste of a good dessert...maybe "dessert storm"?

I don't have a chaplain.

[okisteve]

I don't have a chaplain.

Ask the dessert chef at the restaurant then.

[DoctorP]

I don't have a chaplain.

why would the almightyforumgo need a chaplain?

Which restaurant? I feel like I've missed a whole conversation. You're not somehow under the impression I'm in the military or working on base are you?

Damn right.

Chaplains need the almightyforumgo. He got it backwards.

[OCanadaOurHomeAndNativeLand]

Naw, he just figures you know Emeril.

A better photo would be Bush wearing a pair of boats with the logo "Patriot Act" then wiping his feet on a door mat called "Bill of Rights."

But my post was kewl wasn't it. Thought about it last night, but couldn't post because my hand was numb. (and received bad news)

I liked it Umin. You're good people.

... if you were to take a s**t on an ice cream cake decorated as a flag, would it still be desecration of the flag, or just of the cake?

Fertilizing the ice cream cake actually improves its quality for later composting as ice cream, predominanty consisting of sugar, is an anti-nutrient and is, therefore, unfit for consumption.

The image of a flag cannot be counted as significant either because the image will pass away into oblivion as room temperatures eventually overcome and melt the cake itself.

Perhaps a better way of re-casting the question is to pick a different object, like, say, a pair of Ralph Loren American-flag print boxer shorts with some middle-aged man's bacon strips left in them. Has the man desecrated the flag or his own excessively expensive shorts?

[Asshat]

LMAO Ian. Hey, in Vegas, they take the ice cream and other table orts and mix them all together, boil them, and feed the hogs with the results.

Discovery Channel rocks!

In the 60's wearing the flag sewn into the ass of Levi's was an anti-establishment statement. Now it is considered patriotic, unless one is a republican. Then they must wear the flag pin.

So true, so true!

My brother had an American-flag-print hanky he'd routinely soil with winter-time mucous during the years just after Vietnam. He'd had a draft card, but was subsquently not called into action. Nevertheless, I think he was communicating some sort of solidarity with his demoralized friends who'd been shipped off and returned disillusioned.

Funny thing is, I think I remember my mom having bought those hankies at K Mart or Woolworths.

The Bill of Rights seems to be forgotten these days. :thumbdown: What are rights again?
