Duncan Hunter Requests American Flag At Debate; Request Denied
A bunch of bumbling idiots who threw together a Republican presidential debate forgot to include an American flag on the set. Duncan Hunter requested the flag and it was denied. The All-American presidential campaign was without an American flag. Hopefully; this is the last debate organized by these morons.
Republican front-runners weren't the only things missing from the presidential debate stage. The American flag was AWOL, too.
The backdrop to the "All-American Presidential Forum," brought to you by Tavis Smiley and PBS, was a map of the United States, superimposed with a checkerboard of multicultural faces.
Rep. Duncan Hunter of California, one of the presidential hopefuls, asked debate organizers to get Old Glory up there, too, according to Chris Cavey, first vice chairman of the state GOP.
Cavey was acting as an escort for another candidate, Tom Tancredo of Colorado, and heard Hunter's request over his earpiece about half an hour before the show began.
"Escorts were wired. I heard [in the earpiece], 'Congressman Hunter is requesting a flag on stage,'" Cavey said.
Request denied.
