The intentions here are completely different, The_Dude. The people in Oregon want to take the flag down because they hate America, Bush is signing flags because he was asked to first of all, and second because he didn't know it was against the flags etiquette. It's easy to call him stupid now that we know it's against the law, but how many of you knew that law before this article? Chances are unless you were in the boyscouts or something you didn't, I'd be surprised if 1 out of 10 people on these forums knew how to properly put a US flag on a wall, or crossed with another flag.
