    Quote of the day from the article:

    The Dollar Tree's assistant store manager told WFAA.com that the flag is sold as a "patriotic banner" and not as an American flag.

    Who cares about how many stars...I am more upset that the stars are upsidown wich denotes demonic or pro Devil. Their being too many stars seems a mood point compared to the fact that someone who desinged it had intent to piss Americans off!

    If they add 20 more, it'll have enough stars to count the 50 United States plus the 31 states of Mexico!

    i wonder where that one was made.... $10 says it's got a "made in usa" sticker.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.
