As Fox News has reported, "An American flag with President Obama's image in place of the stars flew over a Florida county's Democrat headquarters long enough to enrage local veterans who called the altered banner 'a disgrace.'"
Lake County Democratic Party officials took down
the flag, which flew just below a standard Old Glory on the flagpole outside
headquarters in Tavares following complaints by local veterans. But merely
taking it down wasn't enough for several local veterans, who said they fought
for the flag Betsy Ross made famous, not one with a politician on it.
"It's absolutely disrespectful," Jim
Bradford, a 71-year-old veteran who participated in the Bay of Pigs Invasion
told FoxNews.com. "It's totally ridiculous. To put somebody's picture
there, to me, it's a disgrace to do that."
Oh, and here's the kicker... the
Obama flag was made in China! What a fitting touch.
