Beck recently talked about feeling like he can’t fly the flag anymore, and elaborated in a Facebook post days ago:
Last week I got a lot of heat for saying I couldn’t fly the flag another day because I didn’t know what it stood for anymore. I called Colonial flag and had two new flags made. The top is the Bennington flag with a modification from me. Two words we need to relearn. And the lower flag is An appeal to Heaven. In a comment to a fan, Beck explained, “When the people rise up to stop the butchers at planned parenthood, or demand that we don’t cut deals with the butchers in Iran, when we no longer stand with killers in Cuba over Gods people in Israel I will consider flying the flag.”
On the radio today, Beck railed against the “evil” he saw in the multiple released Planned Parenthood videos and how much it damages American values.

Is that a position of his Mormon Church? Seems pretty radical.
We’ll all be forced to fly the hammer and sickle or swastika once the “fundamental transformation” is complete.
I feel the same way - what does it stand for anymore? It’s been totally co-opted.
Way to try to get attention, Glennn.
Maybe you could cry a little, just to drive it home.
And then have a health issue. One that your magic underpants can’t solve.
i have mine upside down since the thursday annoucement, and the correct motto is “Appeal to Heaven” as a verb according to the letter that fist recommended the pine tree flag. which you can’t find.
I’ve thought for awhile that GB is a dork, but I found his reasons hard to argue with. He said that like 250,000 Americans signed a petition for Cecil the lion and only about 22,000 signed one to defund PP.
Also, when I think of the freaking rainbow crap, I also have to wonder if that flag represents much goodness any more.
fist= first
We took ours down for the same reason, a flag had been up in that spot on our porch since 9/11.
I stopped flying the American flag with the homosexual marriage decision. I now fly an Appeal to Heaven flag. America has become totally corrupt and is under God’s judgment.
That’s because those online appeals are useless.
People without brains signed the Cecil the lion petition.
People with brains know that it’s a waste of time and didn’t sign one against PP.
I’m not a big GB fan, but I respect him. I did not know about the “Appeal to Heaven” flag, so if he educates me and millions of others about it, that’s only positive.
I don’t fly a flag, but I do put the flag stamp upside down on the mail that I send.
Why not just go legit, and fly the Jolly Roger?
I will fly my flag August 27 in remembrance of the death of my cousin in the revolutionary war. I will fly it Veterans day also.
Colonial flag owned by Becker head ?
Holy cow! How old are you?
More like a weeping kerchief, much abused.
Holy cow! How old are you?
He was my first Cousin 6 times removed and died 239 years ago.
That’s because those online appeals are useless.
People without brains signed the Cecil the lion petition.
People with brains know that it’s a waste of time and didn’t sign one against PP.

Absolutely correct, an utter waste of time.
During the Bush administration,. I received a request from an on line acquaintance, asking me to sign a petition, demanding that President Bush lower the price of gasoline. How stupid can people get? (rhetorical question)
We have a flag Glenn—Its yellow and has a rattlesnake on it with the words “Don’t Tread on Me” The progressives did all in their power to make it a racist symbol—but it never stuck. That is to fly and with it a new movement—The Tea Party II—the Sons of Liberty.
