Upside down American flag
Let not the significance of a Wheat Ridge lady¹s upside-down American flag escape us, for it mirrors the present inverted operation of our federal government. Our nation is not now run with the consent of the governed, but with the consent of those who govern. The governed have been paying the freight, and the governing oilygarchs are getting the goods.
The crisis is not that we have a president, vice president, and their executive department which consistently lies to the people and to the Congress, has sold our natural heritage to the highest bidders, and which is usurping the constitutional powers of the Congress, and who many feel that ( the leaders of ) should be impeached, but that Congress - and the people who elected its members - are allowing this upside-down government to flourish.
Indeed, the Wheat Ridge patriot¹s flag mimics this administration¹s policies.
Impeachment is a prerogative - and indeed, a duty - reserved for Congress, and to be implemented when a high elected official cannot otherwise be held to perform his/ her constitutional duties with honor, honesty or effectiveness. It is a deserved action which is long overdue - for all of these reasons - for George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. Until this happens, our flags should be flown not only upside-down - but at half-mast as well.

The horse, she is dead. You can quit beating her now, you stupid, American infidel.
