President Obama Campaign redesigns American Flag



 Obama Campaign Redesigns American Flag

President Obama’s re-election campaign has re-designed the American flag … and it’s already making waves.

A new campaign poster wipes out all 50 stars on the flag, replacing them with Obama’s logo. The campaign is putting the flag up for sale, hoping people will dole out $35 for their own copy.
Reaction has been streaming in, including that of Fox News Radio’s Todd Starnes, whose Tweets haven’t concealed his own feelings on the poster:

In a recent Fox News Radio article, Starnes discussed the story, as well as what his listeners have had to say in response:

The Obama campaign is now selling copies of an American flag painting that replaces the 50 stars in a blue field with the president’s campaign logo. Critics are calling the artwork creepy and un-American…

…Reaction on social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook has been overwhelmingly negative.

“This is so offensive,” one reader wrote. “I don’t know why I’m shocked, but I am. This stoops to new lows.”
 
Another reader offered this assessment: “Once again, very shameful. This is a disgrace.


“And just what was wrong with the flag with the stars and stripes?” a Facebook reader wondered. “Why must Obama create his own flag?”
