WTF is the "Faith and Flag Alliance"?

hoax group

Amongst all the craziness that has come out about Christine O'Donnell this month, I've noticed that in a number of her past TV appearances (2007-08 at least) she was reported to be part of, or President of, the "Faith and Flag Alliance." The title is used on Fox News clips, for example, to apparently give her some reason to be on TV as a commentator. But I can find no evidence of this group having any existence beyond Ms. O'Donnell. (Of course, prior to that, O'Donnell was the president and founder of S.A.L.T., her anti-masturbation group. It is also unclear how many members SALT ever had, there is some evidence it had a few members.)

The very name "Faith and Flag Alliance" screams out like some kind of demand to repeal the First Amendment.

* Google news archives hits for "faith and flag alliance" currently yield one result, to a transcript of a March 2008 appearance on Fox News.

Just more ridiculous stuff.
