Dubya demonstrates proper flag etiquette
Jason Reed of Reuters took an interesting series of pictures of Bush including the one below.

"Above U.S. President George W. Bush and first lady Laura Bush stand on a carpet commemorating the date of the attacks of September 11, 2001 near a mural depicting those attacks outside the Ladder Company 10 firehouse opposite the site of the World Trade Center in New York, September 10, 2006. Bush lay a wreath at Ground Zero before visiting a chapel for a memorial service."

Last year Bush displayed proper flag etiquette as shown below.


In the meantime U.S. troops continue to honor the U.S. flag the old fashion way.
