Here's the story:
John McCain’s presidential campaign prepared to chastise Democrats Saturday over leaving behind piles of miniature American flags after Barack Obama’s nomination acceptance speech last Thursday in Denver.
Boy Scouts have arrived with 84 trash bags full of bundles of flags at the site of a McCain rally scheduled to begin at 12:30 p.m. local time in Colorado Springs.
The campaign says the flags were recovered from Invesco Field after the Democrats concluded their convention there, and they are going to be used as part of the warm-up ceremonies before McCain takes the stage for the rally.
FOX News has been told a vendor at Invesco Field found the flags, which were going to be thrown out, and turned them over to the McCain campaign.
Veterans in Colorado Springs are expected to distribute the flags to the audience at the rally.

There's a blog posting on the Denver Post as well, but their server is crashing from too many hits I think.
Is Barak Obama responsible? Yes he is. That was 'his' campaign' Convention. Barak Obama was 'in charge' of it all. The DNC Convention was all about nominating Barak Obama as their 'leader de facto', and the Convention was to reflect both DNC and Barak Obama values and beliefs. What we now are witness to is that what the 'extreme right' and those concerned often say about today's DNC, they are anti-American. With the trashing of thousands of those official U.S. Flags, that's thousands of points of proof.
Why do I say Barak Obama is responsible? If a ship goes aground or wrecks, it's the Captain who is ultimately held accountable. If a company goes bust, it's the CEO who is held accountable. The DNC Convention was and for Barak Obama, and the trashing of those flags for whatever reason how it happened, Barak Obama is accountable for his leadership that something like that should not have taken place. That's the kind of leadership he could bring to the White House and our Nation. Be afraid, be very afraid.
