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.

I think I would have torn it down and burned it...burning the flag is legal right?....the leftists and commies get away with all the time....

if pubs were smart....ha ha what a joke....this would be part of the campaign...

That is a flag I would be happy to burn. Wrap it in as many Korans I can find and just light it up. Extra gas, just like my dad squirted on charcoal. Light me up some Roman candles, bottle rockets and M-80s and we could have ourselves a party.

It’s not an American flag. It’s not even made here. Fake as 0bama’s COLB.

Forget the jibber-jabber. That Obama flag violates at least a couple of federal laws regarding US flag display.

I really, really like how you think...

I can't believe anyone would be stupid enough to display such a piece of crap anywhere on American soil.

This should be an event. A Memorial Day Sunday pork bratwurst, weenies and s’mores evening. I could go for that.

Somebody had the lack of intelligence to design this and get it printed.
Someone else had the lack of respect to actually print the darn thing.

The flag was made in China according to Fox News.

There are FR posts from just a few years ago in which MANY Freepers screamed in defense of their right to burn and desecrate Old Glory.

Where are they today?

...I don’t even recognize this country anymore. :(:(:(:(:(

What absolutely shameless fungi!

There are many, many fine folks who are lifelong Democrats who must, at some point, snap awake to the fact that their once-great party has been hijacked by America-hating dark forces.

I also believe (perhaps wishfully think) that there must be many Dems among the leftie "news" media who observed the far, far left spiral (and not like where it's leading), and might have the nerve to write some truly detailed exposés in time for the election).

What say you, McCain? Is there still ‘nothing to worry about’ with 0 at the helm?

McCain, like Obama, does not find much use in the Republic’s constitution. He does not see treason as a threat; he sees it as “progress” that they are getting aways with it.
