Jon Stewart on the American flag

Even if the flag burning amendment does become law, the larger problem will remain of how to respectfully dispose of older, tattered flags. Well, fortunately the U.S. official Flag Code has a suggestion about this. Quote: 'The flag, when it is in such a condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem of display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.' . . . In response, the House Republicans are calling for tattered flags to be kept alive via a feeding tube."

Perhaps it is already...

Neal Peart, of RUSH, said it very well.
