Democrats Desecrate US Flag With Obama's Face
(ACN Staff) Fox News' America Live reports that the desecration of the American flag by a local Democratic headquarters outside of Orlando caused an outrage among a group of patriotic citizens and veterans. According to the report, filed by Trace Gallagher, veteran Jim Bradford initially took notice of the flag (pictured below) which shows Barack Obama's face in place of the stars in the upper right hand corner of the flag, flying below the American flag at the Democratic party headquarters in Lake County, Florida outside of Orlando.
Outraged, Bradford, went home, looked up the U.S. Code and returned to the headquarters accompanied by an unspecified number of veterans and members of the media.
Approaching the chairwoman of the Lake County Democratic party, who was manning the headquarters at the time, Bradford informed her that the "Obama flag" was a desecration of the American flag, even going so far as to give her a printed-out copy of the U.S. Code, and asked that she take it down.
Public Law 344: "The flag should never have placed upon it or any part of it, any marks, insignia, letters, words, figures, designs, pictures or drawings of any nature."
In response to Bradford's request, the chairwoman of the Lake County Democratic party, clearly agitated, informed Bradford that the party headquarters was private property, refused to take the “Obama flag” down and threatened to call the police when Bradford pleaded with her and offered to take it down for her.
The "Obama flag" was eventually removed and the chairwoman later issued a statement to the media which read: “We were given this [Obama flag] as a gift. We are proud of our president, we’re proud of the United States, and we felt it was time to display that.”
In recent days, Mr. Obama has repeatedly apologized to Afghan President Hamid Karzai over the proper destruction of desecrated Korans, but don't hold your breath for an apology from Mr. Obama on this incident.
