For Pearl Harbor, that is. I’d sooner not fly a flag at all than put one at half-staff for a Communist.

Guess he was saddened at the passing of a fellow traveler and fellow African. He has nothing in common with Lady Thatcher. Or us.

Effin’ disgrace, “honoring” a pos murdering commie. I knew as soon as I was driving through the gate this morning that pos had ordered the flags to half staff...
Tomorrow is Pearl Harbor Day...that’s what really matters.

If I had a flag pole, I’d raise my flag to the highest point. Nothing against Mandela, but he was not an American. I’ll save national honors for those that are.

Raise a car tire to half staff.

To me that’s traitorous to lower the flag for an avowed communist to lower the flag for him. If I see a flag lowered I will do my best to remind the perpetrator of just what Mandela stood for.

Did you notice that the muslim in chief didn’t light the White House Christmas Tree with kids from all over the country. John Boehner did the deed. How long before it’s called the Holiday Tree?

I assume the US press and Obama will go into a week of wailing and weeping to show the world how much anguish Obama has because he “cares”.
Maybe O will demand Taxpayers give Mandela a State Funeral in the US Capitol Rotunda along with professional wailers and white flagellants walking behind.

He has nothing in common with Lady Thatcher.
Correction: They were both born citizens of the United Kingdom.

I guess I have to add a few feet to my flag pole.

It should be at half mast to mourn the death of the American economy.

We’re in an age where the POTUS invites Chinese troops into Hawaii. There is much to mourn. Will Obama have to be punished as severely as Zedekiah was? which is a really bad thing for the USA given what that was associated with.

Nothing against Mandela? If you read up on what he was about, you’ll have lots against Mandela.

So true. There is much to mourn such as the president giving a speech on income inequality and no one in Congress calls him out for preaching from the Marxist playbook.
