Someone on Twitter Noticed a Similarity Between the Flag They’re Peddling on Obama’s Campaign Site

…and a recent, horrific tragedy.

The campaign calls the $35 print (if it’s still on the website IT IS as it was getting some opposition as of last night) “Our Stripes”.

Appropriate, no?

   The Dems love to scream about a supposed Republican War On Women; it seems a stronger case can be made for the Democrat’s War on Americans.

   “Democrat’s War On Americans” — how very true.

   It’s one thing to use the stars and stripes for a campaign – that’s pretty much everybody ever – but it’s a damn sight further to replace the stars and stripes with your own brand, as if you were the only point to having a country in the first place.

   This annoys me no end, even without the gruesome coincidence with the bloody finger smears of our murdered diplomats.

   Oh, and PS – the New England Revolution may well have a case of copyright infringement. The Obamanites even used the same reduced number of stripes.

   (For the record, somehow the Revs flag doesn’t bug me… maybe because the flag motif isn’t so team-specific. A ball is a ball, and they kept the stars.)

   It wasn’t a tragedy, it was an atrocity.
