This Is The First Time I've Put The Flag Out On Presidents Day Since 1999

2. The right-wingers across the street from me have the flag out 24/7/365.

Right through the wind & rain, ice storms, etc. The thing is getting pretty bedraggled by now, rather like our country, which has also been left in taters by Republicans.

5. I thought it was "un-patriotic" to leave the flag up after sundown, etc.?? n/t

6. Me too. But isn't it typical?

First, they mistake the symbol for the reality, as always. Then, they disrespect the symbol.

Sheesh.

PS. Actually, they moved out about a month ago, leaving behind only a "For Sale" sign. And, of course, the flag.

7. Not if you have a light on it at night, which we do

8. Ah, I stand corrected....n/t

3. My doodad broke.

So I'll just carry mine! :patriot:

4. LOL

I had an old wooden flagpole & it was pretty bowed (not quite a "C" yet but a good "parenthesis" anyway). My new flagpole came with a new "doodad" but the old one is so covered with paint I didn't even attempt to change it. So I have a spare if your arms get tired.

:rofl:
