Poor gullible Amy Proctor has been taken in by yet another wingnut attack on Barack Obama:
Did you know that Barack Obama’s campaign chartered 757 North American aircraft underwent a makeover in July? The Obama campaign thought it would be a good idea to take off the American flag from the tail of the plane, a fixture on North American airplanes, and replace it with his his signature “O” logo.
Is there such a thing as flagophobia? Or maybe it’s egomania.
This is yet another variation on the threadbare ‘Obama hates America” meme that is all the rage among the mouthbreathers these days. In fact, there is a flag on Obama’s plane:

So, no “flagophobia” there. And as far as “egomania” is concerned, take a gander at the tail of McCain’s campaign plane:

Um, where’s the flag, Amy?
One has to wonder, though, at Amy’s bizarre claim that an American flag on the tail of a plane is “a fixture on North American airplanes”. Really?
Hmmmm… There’s no American flag on the tail of this American Airlines plane…

…or this Delta Airlines plane…

…or this Southwest Airlines plane…

…or this Blue Angels C-130…

…or this USAF F-15…

And, as we saw above, there’s no flag on the tail of McCain’s plane either. Does that make McCain “flagophobic”, Amy?

The photo PW refers to is not the same as the photo of McCain’s plane above. Nothing has been cropped.
That is an activity that you clearly have some experience with, PW. Kindly explain your preferred method.

You lying sack of shit, your “theory” that there is no flag on his plane has been exposed for the bullshit that it is
Admit defeat and move on already.

I have never stated nor implied that there was no flag on McCain’s plane.
I suggest that PW admit that he is a moron, and move on.

LIAR
You fucking lying sack of shit
“Um, where’s the flag, Amy?”
Right there in black and white
Come on meathead, you expect people to admit when they were wrong, you cant hold your own self-righteous ass up to the same standard?

PW is, of course, deliberately omitting the context. Amy complained about a flag missing from the tail of Obama’s plane. I replied:
I expect PW to continue to come here and make an ass of himself. That, of course, is his one talent.

Btw stupid
This statement of yours, “One has to wonder, though, at Amy’s bizarre claim that an American flag on the tail of a plane is “a fixture on North American airplanes”. Really?”
Refers to the airline company NAME that owns the plane which has been chartered…not EVERY plane in North America

In this, I can agree with PW. I did misread Amy’s statement.

And while you did misread her statement, Senator Obama’s responsibility upon purchasing the jet from that particular airline was to repaint it so that there would be no infringement of their trademarked design.
I imagine that an unchanged tail design might even cause difficulty in case rapid identification of a North American aircraft vs Senator Obama’s aircraft became necessary.
Therefore, it was both required and prudent to replace one flag with another, not phobic or manic.

Amy Proctor is a Vile human being.
Through her right wing evangelical FoxNews proxy blog group she preaches her holier than thou rhetoric fully aware that the crap she puts up is full of half truths, distortions, and downright lies.
Swaddled in the flag and from the safety of her bedroom, Ms. Proctor views the senseless murder of Afghani and Iraqi infants and children as “necessarry” and ” just”. Her primary justification for the loss of life: “Saddam killed far more Iraqis than the U.S” and “More Iraqis were killed by terrorists and insurgents”.
She also believes that child victims of incest and rape should be required to bear the offspring of those that have commited the most heinous of acts.
Amy Proctor is a horrible human being and I consider it a badge of honor than she has banned me from her website.
Apparently those that drink Rupert Murdochs Kool-Aid do not like to be called on it.

It is most disturbing that people on both sides of any issue resort to using the “f” word and others like it to bolster their arguments. All that does is show lack of intellect and the ablility to communicate properly. I, too, have strong feelings about this election. However, I’m having difficulty finding people to debate with that have something in their mouth besides human waste.
