This is a prime example of the difference between us and them. This flag is insulting to the entire history of everything America has achieved and every strand of historical importance symbolized in the fifty stars where Barack Obama's face currently rests on this crude defacement of the American flag.
This is what we are up against. Looking at the perpetual double standard that exists between Conservatives and Liberals, the left's response would be a far greater uproar if that was George Bush's, or any other conservative's face on that flag. But in this case, this story will likely receive little mainstream attention and most Americans will never even realize that an American flag with Barack Obama's face, instead of the fifty stars representing the pride and unity of our fifty states, wavered over a Florida county's Democratic headquarters.
This insulting flag has finally been lowered at the request of local veterans who had deemed it "a disgrace".
"It's absolutely disrespectful. It's
totally ridiculous. To put somebody's picture there, to me, it's a
disgrace to do that."
