He and his staff have a huge ego. I think even his staff fawns over him. This is disrespectful to do, but then again, its the Barack campaign team. Not the first dumb thing they've put out, nor should it shock anyone anymore.
Lots of assumptions there, when I doubt you've ever spent time with him & his staff.

Whatever, I'm SOOO over this election! Is it November yet??

Please don't act like you haven't seen the people that act as if he's the second coming.

The u.s. flag sucks anyway

It stands for oppression of many by the few both domestically and internationally.

Honestly, I haven't... but we're in kind of a political bubble here, so overt displays are hardly necessary. LOL

I only remember seeing people weep when he won, and I shed a tear myself for many reasons - but I've been alive during quite a few elections now, and saw the same around EVERY winning candidate. So no, I really can't see much of a difference with him (except in the virulent opposition).

Probably would be a good idea to ditch the stupid flag, for more reasons than one.

Hey, folks...
It's a piece of paper with a frame around it and a piece of glass in front of it. That's not a flag!

The flag has been used as an art theme forever. Pieces of paper, pieces of canvas and Masonite and wood and metal all have artwork that is flag-like on them.

Know the difference. The flag is the flag. This is not, nor intended to be, a flag.

Ugh! An American Flag with an elephant on it!

And the three stars, what are they?

Let's guess:

Mormon, Mammon, and Money?
