You don't quite get it.
I think it is entirely possible and probable that a Chinese flag went up in front of the plant during the workers stay.
I do NOT think it is possible, probable or likely that a Chinese flag was flying higher than an American flag in front of a building on U.S. soil other than an Embassy (which technically are not on U.S. soil). That is what the picture shows.
If there was a Chinese flag in front of the Illinois plant I would like to see a picture of it. If the American flag is not there flying higher than the Chinese flag then I have a problem with it.
If the US flag is flying where it should be then I see nothing wrong with the company recognizing that it is both U.S. and Chinese.
I still have a problem with the outsourcing. The flag discussion creates a diversion from where the discussion should be which is the outsourcing of American manufacturing jobs and Mitt Romney's contribution to it.
