Democrat Party Headquarters Flies US Flag With Obama’s Face On It

There are a lot of things that I never thought I would see in my lifetime. I never thought I would see women boasting and celebrating their experience of being impaled by a vacuum hose – and then have their baby and womb sucked into a canister, to be dumped into a medical waste dumpster. I never thought I would see so-called men proudly french-kissing and groping one another in public. I never in my right mind thought America would have a Communist leading our nation. I never thought that the first person of color elected to occupy the White House, would be as loathsome and base as this person has turned out to be – who is surpassed only by his wife and Nancy Pelosi for commonality. And it is for darn sure that I never thought there would come a day in America, when the face of an avowed socialist would replace the stars that represent the 50 states on our National Flag, with the face of Barack Obama.

That’s right, Obama’s face replaced the stars on an American flag flying over the Lake County Democrat headquarters in Tavares, Florida. A subscriber to my daily alerts brought it to my attention, I have included the full article below. But back to the point at hand – no president in history of the world, save those who coin money with their images on it, have had their faces displayed on their national flag of their country.

Nancy Hurlbert, chairman of Lake County Democrat Party, claims the flag was a gift. She said: “We are proud of our president, we’re proud of the United States, and we felt it was time to display that.” Fortunately, severalveterans did not see it that way. They protested the abomination that the Democrat Party was flying directly under our National Flag. While the Obama national flag was removed without incident, Hurlbert did threaten the veterans with arrest if they stepped on the property.

Not only was the flag in violation of the federal flag code, Obama’s face on the our national flag is an affront to the men and women who sacrificed their bodies and those who gave their lives for our flag to fly proudly over our nation. It was the blatant single-finger salute to those who gave their lives for our freedoms – the very same freedoms that Obama has said he wants to strip us of.

For those of us who were born here or who are here legally, and value what it means to have freedoms guaranteed us by the Constitution – this is the latest assault on our nation by socialists. That they were brazen enough to publicly display and proclaim their allegiance to their envisioned “national republic of Obama,” is emblematic of his narcissistic socialism destroying our nation. He pledged to his followers that he would “fundamentally change” America and his arrogant, haughty wife is proud of the country now that she can comport herself as a queen at taxpayer’s expense. We reluctantly stomach their presence, as we work to remove them and their kind from from public office – but, we will not stomach them desecrating our flag and defecating on the memory of those who paid the price for people like Obama, to not be treated as they treat would be dictators in Communist countries.

Please read the following article, and when you are finished, if you share my outrage take a moment to write, call, fax, email, the Lake County Democrat headquarters and the White House. Please do not threaten or use vulgarity, but let both Obama and this Democrat headquarters know that this is America. We are one nation under God, not under Obama and we will not forget their desecrating our flag, by putting his face on it, come November. Please share this rant and this article with all of your social network friends and email contacts. Ask those with whom you share this to forward it to their friends. This needs to go viral, we need to bring this to the attention of every true Patriot. Your help is needed.

Dems entangled in Obama flag flap

President Obama’s face in place of stars on an American flag flying at Lake County Democratic Headquarters in Tavares irked a group of veterans on Tuesday, who found themselves engaged in a verbal confrontation and the threat of police action when they requested the flag be taken down.

The matter was resolved peacefully when Democratic party officials removed the flag.

The Obama flag had been flowing for two months underneath an American flag before it was noticed by theveterans, who argued that it was a desecration of the flag and in violation of three codes passed by Congress about displaying the American flag.

“We were given this as a gift,” said Nancy Hurlbert, chairwoman of the Lake County Democratic Party. “We are proud of our president, we’re proud of the United States, and we felt it was time to display that.”

Leesburg veteran Jim Bradford recalled he did a double take when he saw the Obama flag with red and white stripes for the first time over the weekend.

“When I saw the picture on the flag, I thought this is wrong,” he said. “I really hate seeing the flag not being respected, and to me this was not respectful.”

Bradford took pictures of the flag and sent them, via email, to friends and veterans groups.

“The general reply has been this is not right,” he said, adding politics has nothing to do with the issue.

“I really don’t care what party it is. If it had been a picture of Romney on the flag, I would have done the same thing,” Bradford said.

Korean War veteran Don Van Beck of Tavares spearheaded the veterans‘ visit to the Lake County Democratic Headquarters, where he was joined by a dozen veterans and media on the front steps of the Main Street building.

“There are laws against desecrating the flag,” Van Beck said, right before he read out loud the federal flag code, public law 344, section 4G to Hurlbert: “The flag should never have placed upon it or any part of it, any marks, insignia, letters, words, figures, designs, picture or drawings of any nature. We would like to ask you to take it down please.”

Hurlbert told Van Beck that she wanted to look up the code first.

“Well, we’re here. I’ll take it down for you,” the veteran said.

“No, this is private property. You’re not allowed to touch anything. I’ll call the police,” Hurlbert said.

“I wish you would,” Van Beck said. “Would you call the police?”

“No, no, no. This is private property and I’ve given you the benefit of the doubt. I said I would d
time and we’ll check it out.”

“You’re in violation of the code,” Van Beck said.

“And I’m saying we’ll check it out,” she said. “Thank you very much.”

Van Beck gave Hurlbert a POW-MIA flag to be installed in place of the Obama flag and offered for theveterans to put it up. Once again Hurlbert reminded Van Beck that he and the other veterans were on private property and if they touched the flag, she would call police.

“It would be nice if you showed respect for our flag,” said veteran John Masterjohn, who voice disapproval for Obama.

“God bless America and our president,” Hurlbert said. “You guys have a wonderful day. Thank you very much.”

The veterans debated their next move before Hurlbert and another volunteer resurfaced to the front yard and began taking down the Obama flag.

“We didn’t know it was in violation and so now we are taking it down,” Hurlbert said. “If somebody had just called ahead of time, we could have avoided all of this.”

Van Beck said he did try to phone to Democratic Headquarters on Monday and also Tuesday morning, but did not make contact with anyone.
Yet, he was pleased with the outcome.

“I’m very happy,” Van Beck said. “I’m sorry it had to come to this … You don’t desecrate the flag, especially for the veterans who fought the wars and died for it. In dictatorships, they have a picture of their dictator on some of the flags, but we haven’t arrived at having a dictator, yet.”

And he never wants to see that happen.

Passerby Ralph Smith applauded the removal of the Obama flag, which he felt was in “bad taste.”

“I’m sure Nancy understands that now,” he said.

Daily Ed. Quotes

ON RESPONSIBILITY

Education is too important to be left solely to the educators.” – Francis Keppel

This note was written by a home schooling parent who lives in my area. I had to post it here because it’s refreshing to hear from homeschooling fathers for a change.

Why I Homeschool my Children

by Keith McCoy on Thursday, March 15, 2012 at 12:25am ·

There are times when things hit you. And I mean ton of bricks from the sky, Mike Tyson in his glory days, knock you flat on your ass.  This evening is one of those times.  The, for lack of a better word, rant, I am about to unleash is one of those times.  It will offend some, enlighten others, and confuse some more of you.  And some of you will applaud it. I think very few will applaud it.

 

Almost 4 years ago Keri and I decided to remove our oldest 2 children from public education. We wrestled with the decision and sought the council of educators, homeschoolers, family and friends.  At the time they were our only 2 children and quite frankly, we were done. So I thought.  I was becoming increasingly displeased with the system as a whole but I was not on board fully with the decision and I have second guessed myself since we did it.  We have used various homeschool groups, online courses and co-ops.  And every time we shift we go over the same argument.  What are they supposed to know, how do I teach that, etc. etc.  Then this evening I found clarity.

 

ALMOST EVERYTHING I LEARNED IN SCHOOL WAS, OR IS NOW, “WRONG”

 

Pluto is not a planet, eggs are good for me (aren’t they), immunizations don’t prevent disease, my desk won’t protect me in the event of a nuclear attack, JFK may or may not have been killed by a lone gunmen or the mafia on behalf of Cuba, the founding fathers were racist, and sexist and they may or may not have meant “All” People.  The government is not my friend, and neither are the police.  The IRS (a non government agency that has better black ops teams than most third world countries) is not above the law. We did send weapons to the Middle East and funded terrorists. We did enslave the Chinese in World War II while we fought against a guy for enslaving people (but he killed them). I can start a sentence with the word “Because”.  It really doesn’t matter what kind of shoes, hat, shirt, or car I own and no one cares how many cassettes I have because now they are paperweights. There is no cure for cancer, or any other disease since 1950 and politicians are not to be trusted.  Period. These cannot be disputed and they were all part of my schooling.  I will not subject my children to that.

 

There are constants, yes.  2+2 = 4 and 2 x 4 = 8. Unless you work for Wall Street in which case 2 +2 only equals 4 when I deduct the principle interest over the long term….whatever. 2+2 = 4 ALWAYS.

 

My children learn life skills that they need, such as how to work in society and interact with people. How to earn a dollar, how to coexist in a 1200 sf house peacefully with 4 siblings and 2 parents who love each other (been married 14 years). Recycling their school lunch of pink slime will not save the environment; learning to live with less and appreciate the very fact that you have something, instead of constantly pining for more will instill the character that will have my children, as adults, leading yours. They learn all day, every day, and they learn things that no school can teach them. They build stuff, create, DO things with their own two hands and from the intuitive thoughts in their own mind. Not following your watered down directions. There is nothing that is not at their disposal.  You Tube, Khan Academy, Family in City Government, Family who went to wars, iTunes U where hundreds of k-12 to University courses are available for free.  Holy Shit, they are free thinkers!?!? And they are dangerous.  This causes me as much pride and satisfaction as it does cause for frustration.  And sometimes they screw up.  They don’t fail.  Because failure means quitting.  If you never quit moving forward you cannot fail. They are not A or D students. They are simply students. As I am, my wife is, and my three toddlers are.

 

“But homeschooling is hard.” Yep! It’s probably the most personally challenged I have ever been.  These are my children, my legacy, I want them to do better than me (ego). Until now I have allowed outside influences to cause me to second guess myself and my children’s intelligence. No more. “I can’t homeschool, I don’t have time”  Bulshit! you have time for pinterest and facebook and time to know whatever bullshit the Kardashians are into this week? Then you have time to balance your checkbook with your kid. You have time to help them make dinner (not let them help you). Have them watch an hour of the Khan Academy for every hour of Dora.  ”Homeschool kids are weird” Yep! They don’t know how to relate with your child who only wants to talk about video games/cartoons/jersey shore/sex or whatever other poison MTV and Disney are spoonfeeding them this month. I am perfectly ok with that.

 

I used to think that people thought we were lazy for homeschooling. In reality it is the antithesis of lazy to say I will be solely responsible for your well being. I will educate you and clothe you and feed you and protect you and discipline you.  I will not send you to an institution designed on the principles of the prison system that segregates and demeans you and tells you what you can or cannot do, how to dress, what to read or say, and that will reduce you to the lowest common denominator. Unless you live in a wealthy neighborhood of course, or some philanthropist builds a charter school in your area.  All children have a right to a quality, open, free education.   And if you have the internet then you have all the resources you need.  Lazy is letting your momma lay out your clothes for you every morning.

 

I say this with the utmost respect for those working in the teaching field.  Because without you there would be millions of students without a place to learn.  You pick up where parents have left off.  You give tirelessly of your time and your energy to raise other people’s kids. And you are underpaid and undervalued. Please don’t think because I have chosen not to use your services that they are not of great value.  Some of my greatest inspiration are teachers, John Taylor Gatto and Howard Zinn among them.

 

So if this rant has offended you, I aplogize, as that was not my intent.  I needed to put this on paper (and I mean needed) so that when someone asks me why I homeschool, I can simply refer them here.  We all have our paths to follow, and their are no right or wrong ones to choose if that is where your heart takes you.  And finally, I know where mine is taking me.
