Freeper Ignorance of the American Flag

Found this by accident. I wanted to find some really cool colors and pictures to post for this weekend, but when I found THIS, well, it became a much better post by throwing what I had planned out the window.

Some idiot Freeper started saying "ding ding ding!" and started jumping up and down because he THOUGHT he spotted an unpatriotic display of the American Flag at a protest in Berkley, California last spring:

CAPTION from FreeRepublic.com:

Flag in distress? Vietnam beads & a rat tail!

Hope I don't know him!

Semper Fi

First of all, dumbfuck--your "Semper Fi" is a little out of place for someone who is obviously a non-Marine. Anyone with any brains at all--any brains at all--will tell you that the flag sewn on the leather jacket of the gentleman in the picture is NOT an American flag in distress. An American flag in distress is displayed upside down. The American flag pictured here is stars to the front, as in, what a warrior would carry into battle.

See? See how the flag on this soldier's uniform looks?

What a great object lesson for this holiday weekend--there is no shortage of denigrating wingnuts and fuckheads who know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WHATSOEVER about this country who will spout off at the drop of a hat against another American without even bothering to actually fucking know what they're talking about.

Is this still America? Sometimes, I just sit here and shake my head.

So I took this quiz...

Shortstop, who comments from time to time and guest blogs at WTWC sometimes took a "What Supervillain are you?" quiz and sent me her results (She is Poison Ivy) and the link. I took it, and I am rather happy with the results! I can deal with being Mystique!

First of all...She's blue. And she has red hair.

And how many supervillains have a core of decency that gets 'em honorary X-Men status? Huh?

You are Mystique

Mystique		77%
Poison Ivy		76%
Venom		71%

Sometimes motherly, sometimes a beautiful companion, but most of the time a deceiving vixen.

So take the quiz and tell us in comments..What supervillain are you?

Like this wasn't apparent already...

My Liberal Identity:

You are a New Left Hipster, also known as a MoveOn.org liberal, a Netroots activist, or a Daily Show fanatic. You believe that if we really want to defend American values, conservatives must be exposed, mocked, and assailed for every fanatical, puritanical, warmongering, Constitution-shredding ideal for which they stand.

Take the quiz at www.fightconservatives.com

I particularly enjoy the mockery. Hoo boy, do I enjoy the mockery!!!

UPDATE: The oldest kid is also a New Left Hipster. No surprise there, either.

UPDATE II: Hubby just took the quiz, and again, no surprises.

UPDATE III: The daughters split the difference - one of each. So to recap; Mom, oldest child and youngest child are New Left Hipsters who are all about making with the mockery of the morons and aparatchiks. Dad and the middle child are Reality Based Intellectualists who engage in light mockery, except where religion is concerned, when they make an exception and turn it up to high.

My Liberal Identity:

You are a Reality-Based Intellectualist, also known as the liberal elite. You are a proud member of what’s known as the reality-based community, where science, reason, and non-Jesus-based thought reign supreme.
