In Obama's worldview that flag does not deserve to fly at full-staff.

Tried to post this from USAToday earlier but was reminded that any/all GannettGarbage cannot be posted on FR. I did not expect it to show up edited on Newsmax.
The first line of the original piece reads...
With his tenure in office marked by terror attacks and mass shootings, President Obama has reached a sad but remarkable milestone in his presidency: He has ordered the lowering of the nation's flags to half-staff more often than any president in history.
...kinda shocking that the Keynesian agitator-in-chief has lost the pom-pom waving apparatchiks.

I’m so sick of these jerks who lower the bar for lowering our Stars and Stripes.

Flag should be flying upside down since 2009.

The honor of flags at half staff is overdone not only by the President, but by state governors. Flags are half staff so much for anybody and their dog it has become meaningless. Save the honor for the very few who deserve it

We will only know the truth after Obama is out of office. Then —If Hillary is elected—only when she leaves. I believe the truth is much worse than we think.
To: MNDude
Except for our Military dead. Flags didn't go to half staff for the 9 Ft. Hood drowning victims or the Blue Angel Pilot or the Chattanooga victims.
