Confederate flag spotted hanging at club where VP hunted

UNION VALE, N.Y. - Vice President Dick Cheney's eight-hour outing at a
secluded Hudson Valley gun club went off without incident -- except for the
Confederate flag the media spotted hanging inside a garage.
Cheney's visit Monday to Clove Valley Rod & Gun Club in Dutchess County,
about 70 miles north of New York City, was made under tight security that kept
reporters and photographers well away from the vice president's hunting party.
But after Cheney's visit, a New York Daily News photographer snapped a
picture of a Confederate flag hanging inside a garage on the hunt club
property. In
the photo published in Tuesday's editions, the flag, about the size of a
pillow case, is seen covering the top of the window on a door at the back of
the
garage.
The New York Post reported the flag hung in the garage attached to the club
headquarters.
The Daily News photo was shown to the Rev. Al Sharpton, the civil rights
activist, who issued a statement demanding that the vice president "denounce
the
club, and apologize for going to a club that represents lynching, hate and
murder to black people."
A phone message left with the club by The Associated Press on Tuesday morning
was not returned.
Sharpton's statement was issued hours after Cheney departed the club at 3:45
p.m. Monday for a flight out of Stewart Air National Guard Base. In a
statement issued Monday evening, Cheney spokeswoman Megan Mitchell said neither
Cheney
nor anyone on his staff saw such a flag at the hunt club.
It's not clear whether the front door of the garage that contained the flag
was even open at the time the vice president was at the club, where well-heeled
hunters shoot ducks and pheasants.
Daily News photograph Howard Simmons told the Poughkeepsie Journal that the
garage's front door was open when he snapped the photo and that the flag was
plainly visible to those standing outside.
The flag flap was minor compared with the controversy that arose in 2006
after Cheney accidentally peppered attorney Harry Whittington with birdshot
while
quail hunting in Texas. The vice president came under fire for not immediately
going public with the incident.
