Didja Notice that they used the Old Iraqi Flag at the Swearing In?
The new zionized Iraq flag the invaders tried to foist on them has apparently been dumped.

Funny

1. I've been wondering about htis also.
I haven't seen the new flag anywhere, just the old one. I guess it went over like a fart in church.

2. Geez. And Wolfowitz spent SO MUCH TIME sketching out that design!
The guy must have used up several post-it notes!

6. I wonder how much Halliburton's graphics design team
was paid to design the "new" flag?

Probably just a couple of million dollars.

:-(

4. Disgusting swearing in, wasn't it. Looks like they were in a bunker
handing it over so Bremer could get his butt outta there quick.

It should have been a huge ceremony with much fanfare, but instead they are in so much trouble that they have to do a "quickie" in a hideout.

Shabby looking.

7. Bremer flew out two hours after the ceremony was completed
I wonder if he even grabbed his luggage on the way out.
