CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS

Vote NO on FOX to banning the flag in America VOTE !!! This is disgusting, to put it politely. Your help is needed. This is just sickening. Only 72% have voted on the FOX poll to NOT ban the flag in school and something like 21% voted YES, to ban it. What is going on in this country?? Read below.

Fox is running a poll about whether the flag should be banned in schools in order not to inflame Hispanic students.

The poll is being sandbagged by SEIU and we should mount a counter action if you agree with me that the flag should be taken down for no one.

Moveon.org, funded by George Soros, Organizing for America , and SEIU, "Service Employee International UNION", have been twittering today to go to Fox Poll and vote to BAN the Flag and right now it is still working (21%).

It's time to SHOW THEM WHAT TRUE PATRIOTS BELIEVE!!! GO HERE NOW:

VOTE.........and then pass it along, on your own Email lists!

I CANNOT believe this is even up for any kind of a vote.
What is happening to our country. I think of the brave men and women fight for out flag today along with veteran’s of WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet Nam, et al.
To even entertain such a vote is DISGUSTING!!

The second selection: Yes. The safety of students comes first.17.23% makes no sense at all. How in the heck does the American flag harm anyone? If people protest it, they should move to wherever it is that "their" flag originates (and quit attempting to dictate what we do in "our" country).

I would like to know who at FOX even entertained the idea of submitting such a question.

How about a question whether the Mexican Flag should be banned from display in the US. Since the Supremes have ruled burning the American Flag is Fee Speech, how about burning the Mexican Flag?

No. This is a lame decision. Teach the kids what the flag means, instead of banning it.77.11%

Yes. The safety of students comes first.17.23%

Not sure, but of all things to ban, the American flag would seem the least ‘incendiary.’0.19%

Other (post a comment)5.47%

Total Votes: 3,481,914

"Vote NO on FOX to banning the flag in America VOTE !!!"

This is just a guess on my part ... but I'll bet you could have passed on telling us HOW to vote, and it would have come out well anyway.

The question is ridiculous and an insult to every veteran and person that has served our country and defended the flag.
Especially those who died defending the flag!

For the same reason Horowitz posts articles about 10 reasons to hate palin and then you have to click on 10 different pages to see them. Ad-clicks. Its all about the clicks.

The poll in question is from May of last year and yet here we are clicking on it and reposting it months later.

That is the same percentage when I voted just now almost 30 minutes later. Poll not moving very fast.

***Sure is troubling that 23% of the voters think it’s OK to ban the flag.

May be to prove to the politically correct that they are off base. We must ask these people, what would we carry during the Olympics. What would fly on our navy ships. What would fly on the White House and the Capitol, what we would lay on our fallen soldiers. If we get rid of that, we would have to get rid of our national anthems. What would be the point? This country is in a meltdown of making sure we don't offend anyone, while everyone else is trashing the US because we don't enough. I am so disgusted.

So we have 17.23% who are so disloyal and unpatriotic they care nothing about America, the country that has provided the foundation for everything they have.

That 17% no doubt contains a large number of Obama voters.

I watched Saving Private Ryan last night with my Son, he’s 13, it was his 1st time, after the movie I told him I was sickened that our corrupt government is nullifying the effort of those brave men. I held my tongue and didn’t say half of what I really felt, I did however feel sick all night thinking about it.

Are you f’ing kidding me? What we should do is burn the Mexican wetback flags and replace them with the ONLY flag that should be flown or displayed. Freedom of speech to me is BURNING MEXICAN FLAGS AND ANY FLAG THE LEFTISTS WANT TO FLY. (I used capitals on purpose. This thought to ban the American flag is probably an idea our idiot president's handlers had to distract us from other things happening and coming out of the Anal Office.
