I'm sure we remember VP Biden's story during Sen. Byrd's funeral, about how Sen. Byrd would remove Biden's flag pin and replace it with a US Constitution pin. The other year, I found a link for those pins on the Tamarack website and bought a couple.
The link is no longer on the Tamarack website. Googling produces nothing but blogs referring to the pins or sites with gaudy bejeweled versions.
What happened to the company that made them? Did the business go out? If so, would anyone want to see about starting it up again? Frankly, I hope someone makes the pins.
Wouldn't you love to tell Faux News to stop the faux outrage over the lack of flag pin, and say "they swore to uphold the Constitution, not the flag!"
Besides, what better memorial to our dear Sen. Byrd than to wear the pins he gave out?
