Obama - Romney exchange at first debate:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=vpdmWmuctJw#t=43s"Governor, I see you're wearing an American flag pin on your lapel."
"That's right."
(smile)
"But there's some kind of red spot or blot on it. What's that?"
"Uh...it's an elephant."
"An ELEPHANT?"
"Well...YEAH. It's the symbol of the Republican party. I'm proud to be a Republican."
"Do you think the Republican party OWNS the American flag? Are Republicans somehow MORE patriotic than Democrats?"
"Well...uh...no."
"Then why do you deface our national flag with a political symbol?"
"Um...uh...Moderator?...next question?"
