This act requires the POW flag be flown next to the US flag on Federal properties. This angers Demorats who had been replacing it with the LBGT flag recently.

Thank you Mr President! He understands what we want....

It's certainly appropriate that the POW flag be flown aside the US flag at Federal properties. We agree on that.

What I find irritating about the source of information provided is that the bill to make this happen was bipartisan, yet not presented that way by an obviously biased source of information which conveniently omitted this information. And I'm not a Democrat. I just don't like fake news.

Um, replacing it? Please cite an instance of anyone replacing a POW flag - which, incidentally, I have NEVER seen flying on a federal flagpole - with an LGBT flag. (Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever seen an LGBT flag on a federal flagpole either.)

Not against flying the POW flag. Just questioning your assertion that LBGT flags were replacing POW flags. There is, in fact, no reason I know of why they can't both be flown.

So the govt wants to fly a flag in honor of the troops that were left behind in one of its illegal wars it should've never entered into? Strange times.

I have never seen LTGT flag flown at any federal building, so I am not buying it that they were replacing some other flags.

Nothing against the POW flag, although there isn't a single American POW held anywhere in the world.

It is very misleading to say a bipartisan bill would somehow "anger Democrats".

In short, the source is pushing partisan propaganda.

Yeah, especially when the Senate Bill was sponsored by Elizabeth Warren of all people.

Another freebie for the President. Bi-partisan bill and he has no choice but to sign it or he looks a fool
