Stupid poll.

Part of the problem we have in this country is the fact that we even acknowledge stupid crap.

So Move On, Organizing for America & SEIU are going to start funding these schools???

If my tax dollars are supporting the school, then my country's flag flies at the school.

They can go {edit} themselves.

It would have more of an impact (than “beating” them in this poll) if we were to show the American people what these thugs are tweeting, IMHO.

Any public school that doesn’t fly and respect the flag should be shut down immediately.

And if that "party" is the teacher? The Secretary of State (WI) asked my friends to remove the flag from their lakefront property because is "disturbed" another neighber -- retired teacher from IL. The SOS actually told my friend to move his flagpole back "into the woods where it belongs".

True story. He won't get my vote this election.

If we are debating whether to fly Old Glory in our schools we’re in a lot worse shape than I thought. The only people that would be bothered by this are people that have no reason being here in the first place. If you don’t like it get the hell out!

Forget voting on this outrageous poll. Let them TRY to take the American flag out of ANY school on American soil.

If any school administrators need help in making up their minds on this issue, I’m sure there are a sufficient number of Americans who would be perfectly willing to pull an SEIU- type party on their front porch, and remind them of what it MEANS to pledge allegiance to one’s country.

Thanks, but at a million plus votes,it looks like some sort of “vote ‘bot” got to it.

Oh well, just confirms what we all knew that liberals were robots anyway :) I guess Fox needs to start adding captcha verification to their polls.

Wow! The house across the street is used for Buddhist services. The monk there is originally from the Phillipines. A few times a year there will be special celebrations there. Two flags in front of the house. One, a U.S. flag that is just a little higher than the other....as it should be.
