Obama has his entire administration doing it as well.

Was he really in the Oval Office? It looks like a green screen fake on the replay.

I feel hate for one person consistently. In the morning when I wake up and at night when I pray that he gets sick and dies. His name starts with O.

LOL! I wasn't sure if you were just playing with The Man, al baby, or not.

al baby is awesome. I'm a big fan from way back.

I think it's because he carries off the "garbled phonetext" e e cummings thing with such panache...

It’s actually “I’m Not REALLY a Waitress” from the Hollywood Collection. I’m currently sporting “Silent Mauvie” from the same season on my toes.

Probably was fake, and probably taped earlier. We’d never know the difference since the media are complicit.

Check this photo, it appears the chin is different/ wider. Is it the same guy as in previous years?.

She was also on the show Doc Martin, playing one of his string of secretaries. She was an entirely different type of character, sort of a ditzy hipster.

Obama said......'Muslim Americans are our friends and our neighbors are coworkers, our sports heroes. And yes, they are our men and women in uniform who are willing to die in defense of our country,' ....'We have to remember that.'....... If we’re to succeed in defeating terrorism we must enlist Muslim communities as some of our strongest allies"....

Ok....let's remember...... Obama's definition of a Muslim hero and friend.........

Is the gold fringe not indicative of an “Admiralty Flag?”

You act like this is a common occurrence. It’s not but it is uniquely important. I’m glad he’s wealthy because he doesn’t work for the pro-amnesty crowd. We’ve all seen all these politicians cave to special interests over and over until that’s all they do. A candidate who can self-fund is the only answer to that, the only one.

Wile everyone is up in arms over Obama doing what all liberals do normally, I would remind you all that the lesser evil/no matter what republicans that so many here DEMANDED we elect, have allowed and SUPPORTED his actions with their silence, their policy, their voting, their abdication of congressional authority and FUNDING EVERYTHING HE WANTS.

Sure, Blame Obama. He absolutely deserves it. But never forget that it is the supposedly opposition party that empowered every bit of everything he has accomplished.

It’s a lesser evil you know.

Excerpt below from some flag site, seems legit. The gold fringe IS okay as a Presidential flag. (I can see it now: “Hey guys, how can we get this dork to look more presidential?” “I know, we could use one of those flags with the gold fringe!”

THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO PROVISIONS IN THE LAW FOR ADDING A FOURTH COLOR (YELLOW FRINGE) TO THE TITLE 4 U.S.C. 1,2 FLAG.

Title 4 U.S.C. 3 provides that anything put on the Title 4 U.S.C. 1,2 Flag (gold fringe) MUTILATES the Flag, and carries a one-year prison term. This is confirmed by the authority of title 36 U.S.C. 176 (G). The gold fringe is the fourth color and represents “color of law” , and, when placed on the title 4 U.S.C. 1,2 Flag, mutilates the Flag and suspends the organic Constitution for the United States of America, and establishes “color of law”. (Refer to title 18 U.S.C. 242. See Black’s Law Dictionary).

As provided by title 36 U.S.C. 173, and Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 2-1(b), the Flag of the united States of America is defined and described in title 4 U.S.C. 1,2. Civilians must use the title 4 U.S.C. 1,2 Flag (see title 36 U.S.C. 173 and Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 2-7) and when military flags are displayed by Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 2 and title 36 U.S.C. 175.

THE ONLY AUTHORITY FOR A FRINGE ON THE FLAG IS IN THE ARMY REGULATIONS FOR THE NATIONAL (MILITARY) FLAGS ONLY.

The U.S. Attorney General has stated: “The placing of a gold fringe on the National flag, the dimensions of the flag, and the arrangement of the stars in the union are matters of detail not controlled by statute, but are within the discretion of the President as Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy. . . ancient custom sanctions the use of fringe on regimental colors and standards, but there seems to be no good reason or precedent for its use on other flags. . . the use of such a fringe is prescribed in current Army Regulations, No. 260-10.” (See 34 Ops. Atty. Gen. 483 & 485). The only statute or regulation, in the United States, prescribing a yellow fringed United States flag is Army Regulation No. 260-10, making it a military flag.

By army regulation 260-10, the gold fringe may be used only on regimental “colors”, the President’s flag, for military courts martial, and the flags used at military recruiting centers.

“A military flag emblem of a nation, usually made of cloth and flown from a staff; FROM A MILITARY STANDPOINT flags are of two general classes…those flown from stationary masts over army posts, and those carried by troops in formation. The former are referred to by the general name of flags. The latter are called colors when carried by dismounted troops. COLORS AND STANDARDS are more nearly square than flags , and are made of silk, with a knotted FRINGE OF YELLOW ON THREE SIDES...USE OF A FLAG — THE MOST GENERAL AND APPROPRIATE USE OF THE FLAG IS AS A NATIONAL SYMBOL OF AUTHORITY AND POWER” (National Encyclopedia, Vol. 4)

The adornments on the top of the flag pole are for military use only. The gold eagle is for the use of the President of the United States only, and only in time of war. (Or when he is standing as Commander-in-Chief of the military, having declared Martial Law, and suspended the Constitution). The gold spear ball is for military recruiting centers only. The gold acorn is for military parades only. (Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 8).

Colors “A flag, ensign, or standard borne in an army or fleet.” (Webster’s, 1971).

Color An appearance, semblance, or simulacrum, as distinguished from that which is real. A prima facie or apparent right. Hence, a deceptive appearance; a plausible, assumed exterior, concealing a lack or reality; a disguise or pretext. (Black’s Law Dictionary, 6th Ed.)

Color of law The appearance or semblance, without the substance, of legal right. Misuse of power, possessed by virtue of state law and made possible only because wrongdoer is clothed with authority of state, is action taken under “color of state law”.

Right. We must encourage all wealthy people to self-fund and run for office. We will have a perfect government. They will all be wise, unselfish, and brilliant.

If you have brains, but no money for self-funding, forget it. If you have principles and a desire to serve, pound salt. Only rich folk deserve to hold office, provided they self-fund.

Do you have a link for hugh and series and "I'm going to take a shower..." thread?

Give this thread a shot for reference to those. I wouldn't have known where to begin to find them if someone hadn't shared this with me upthread:

I’m aware of a lot of the old references and inside jokes. Just not who started them. It was funny to have the originator check me for the reference. I had no idea!

But how will we stop Congress. You know this little speech gave them the talking points to push the no-fly zone crap.

If (republican controlled) Congress denies it, well it is a nice rock to throw come the election next year.

I think it's the gun control he is really after. That is why there was so much muzzy-fuzzy in his speech.

The muzzy was the victim of radicalization and gunshowloophole thingy.
