After a short stand off between a group of veterans and the head of the Lake County, FL Democrat Party, an American flag that had been altered to depict an image of Barack Obama in the space where the stars are normally located was taken down.
The Lake County Democratic Headquarters in Tavares has been flying two American flags outside their office. The first an American Flag and the second the altered flag.

Don Van Beck, executive director of the Veterans Memorial at Fountain Park asked that the altered flag be removed, explaining that it was in violation of federal flag code. He offered a POW/MIA flag to fly in its place.
Nancy Hurlburt, the Democratic Party Chair for Lake County, said she would research the issue but didnt take the Obama flag down immediately, prompting Van Beck to declare that they would take the flag down for her.

Funny, I haven’t seen this in the West Palm or Miami media...the same media that drools to report any problem with Florida Republicans.
Local media is where some of the worst bias is found....they leave out SO much, and include the most blatant moments of adulation to Obama you’ll ever witness.
" Hey, Obama. Wanna go down the fruit cellar with me---say hello to mother?"
A spectacular series of posts, ETL, which should be in video format as a campaign ad for the Republican nominee!
Thanks for all the consistantly excellent posts you provide us.
Thank you for posting the video...I am so proud of our men! Stood their ground and won! Wahoo
LOVE IT , I’m getting one.
The other day I was on my way home and stopped off to get gas.
Anyway I saw an old pick up truck and two men got out of it, they were about my age.
I noticed that the driver had two obama stickers on it,m strange they should be driving a pick up when they vote for a guy which wants us to drive electric golf carts I thought but then again the obama voters have never been that bright.
Once inside I noticed the driver had a shirt with obama face on it and it said I stand with the President.
Well me being me and finding that this could be one of the most ironic things I have come across for some , a man supporting obama getting gas with high gas prices for an old pollution pick up
Anyway I said “You stand with him , must like those high gas prices, and people losing their house whole kids are put into more debt”
He ignores me and so I was right in front of him and his pal while they got their two beers for the drive home and a case once they got home.
I said”why on earth would you support a guy which wants you to drive a small golf cart etc.
He pretends to ignore me and I suppose when there are only two of them and only me then the odds for them to say something is small as they need to be at least 10 of them to take one guy on.
I can only hope that these kind of dopes wake up and quick because people like you put the info out there and these idiots seem to not understand what they’re supporting
I get on the computer and go to FR and the first thing I read is this. I just love starting my day p*ssed off. Can we please get this bastard out of the White House in November. His minions(a follower devoted to serve his/her master relentlessly) are creepy. Only dictators have followers like that.
YES!
and to make matters worse, it’s a creepy dictator like photo.
Bingo!!!
There are reasons we don't have massive Mao photos or other types of Communist hagiography. This is America, a country of laws and not of men.
I hope President Obama understands that and this was just a crazy idea by local politically tone-deaf Democrats.
“Inside each left wing lunatic resides a little communist dictator.”
Bingo! And don’t you know that when they were in elementary school they were the class “bossies” - just as Obama reportedly was?! I’ll bet every one of us to this day remembers the names of those kids - whether 5 years ago, or 60 years ago!
LOL!
I would find it creepy for someone to fly a flag with any living political figure on it even if there were no stripes or hint of it being similar to the American flag.
This needs to go viral on the Internet. Every Veterans’ Group in America needs to be made aware of this desecration.
I’m putting both of those quotes on Facebook.
If only indeed. /sigh
Flag burning is the correct method of disposal.
Excellent.

Correct me if I’m wrong but would I be correct in saying that neither Hitler, Stalin, Lenin, Mao, Mussolini nor any of the Korean nutjobs ever went this far?
Or...
Barack Obama, President-for-Life of the Peoples Republic of Himself
