I don't blame the Chinese (here or there or anywhere), but our own elected
officials for the import of US flags. I'd bet a dollar that over half the
flags we've seen in the past two weeks were made in China. Meanwhile, these

violations on a semi-annual basis for show. Don't burn those flags, either,
folks. Makes sense to me...

News flash.....China admitted into WTO....
