Tempers are flaring over a version of the American flag flying in Lake County. A veterans group says the flag is an outrage.
The flag, which features a picture of President Obama, was taken down Tuesday afternoon.
Korean war veteran Don Van Beck said his blood was boiling.
"I can't describe how upset was because you just don't do that to the American flag," Van Beck said.

Gently remind your friends to prep/hoard responsibly. It IS gonna happen, and you might not be able to get out for a couple of weeks.
So buy that extra case of TP, and beans now and then.

I agree with the Vets. No one’s picture, from that Incompetent in the WH to Reagan or even Washington should have their photo put into the American Flag like that.

The ONLY way this would be even possibly toilerable is if the flag were being flown in distressed mode.....

Did you know the lead singer of Living Colour was the guy In Platoon with Taylor in the fox hole at the end of the movie. A bit of Trivia. Der!

Love the parting shot that the veterans could have avoided all this by just calling them (the DIM county HQ) on the phone.
Apparently it didn’t occur to Nancy and her minions that they could have avoided it by not flying that outrageous rag in the first place.

While the headline above is “Vets angry over American flag featuring Obama,” it saddens me that it isn't “Citizens angry over American flag featuring Obama.”

Where’s that picture of Bill Ayers stomping on the flag? Someone ought to photoshop this flag into that picture.

Let me try this one more time.
While it is quite understandable that our Veterans would be at the forefront in recognizing this affront to our Flag and would fight to protect it, it saddens me that the headline isn't “Everyday American Citizens angry over American flag featuring Obama.”
Don't forget, at the 2004 and 2008 democrat conventions, hundreds, if not thousands of American Flags wound up getting thrown out in the trash. Shame on them then, shame on them now.
