Our flag
Jim spoke about this today. It would be President Obama’s redesign of our American flag to raise campaign funds. Buy one and contribute to his campaign.
In case you haven’t seen it, this is what it looks like.
I don’t know…what do you think?

I won’t swear, so I can’t say what I think.
Now that’s a flag I’d burn.
It’s not a US flag. I have no issue with it. I’ll note 2008 seems to be the first president/candidate to have their own LOGO – the circle “O” with red stripes – that was not anything more than his or her name with a few stars. Heck, one of the Bush/Cheney 2004 logos had a design that closely resembled a US flag next to their NAMES. I do think it’s strange the logo RARELY list his last name (Obama). Romney also has a LOGO now, with the “R” looking like three people outlined in red, white and blue. At least he includes his name in almost every version I’ve seen. It’s all marketing, and matters little except for selling crap to support the campaign I guess.
It looks like?the symbol of a planet devoid of people with only streaks of their blood left behind.??
An empty sun going down into an imprisoned ocean of blood???????? Or is that an inverted crescent moon????? Sorry, vivid imagination.
I personally find this REPREHENSIBLE and disgusting. This ‘person’ who I refer to as The ‘USURPER’ is in my opinion, outright evil… Talk about the ego of Lucifer!
I like this one better: https://store.barackobama.com/obama-print.html?related_referrer_id=1637

I read it: “WE OWE!”?????? How apropos!?? 😉
Actually, looking at the flag SOS referred to, I see a sea of red conservativism and a small lonely corner of liberal blue!
This better applies to my above comment: https://store.barackobama.com/our-stripes-country-print.html?related_referrer_id=1635

The blue area looks like the blood starved part of the heart in a heart attack (which is what the reelection of ?bama would cause the country)!
?
This is fun!
Campaign kitch. Predictable and uninspired. Boring.?
It is troubling that it bears a more than? passing resemblance to the UN flag (replacing the blue and star field) a washed-out, attenuated stripes. What is the message?
These are the products of mediocre graphics artists hired by a gasping, wheezing reelection committee looking for anything that will gain traction. Obama swag. These advertising gimmicks don’t even rise to the level of acceptable refrigerator art. Unmemorable.

Soon to be found at tag/yard/garage/jumble sales and leading flea markets.
Oh, and on late-night TV ads hawking (call 1-888- …NOW) overpriced infomercial junk.

This IS fun!
This is our flag? PLEASE!
Jasper Johns worked the American flag, artistically, in many different ways.

None, IMO, disrespectfully. Unlike . . . Follow the link:

The proud logo of the Obamunists.??A badge of shame after November, but it’s hard to change a good brainwashing with reality.
Or, perhaps, Frederick Church’s, Our Banner in the Sky (1861).

Or, perhaps, Marc Handelman’s 2005 Our Banner in the Sky inverts Church’s flag into an international distress signal.

Artistic treatments of the American flag without being crass.
?
This IS a lot of fun.
As noted on the “We owe . . .” post, the logo in the banner field looks a lot like a corporate logo. Perhaps AT&T’s logo in a different color inverted.

Can you say, RIPOFF?
Looks wash upped to me.
I certainly wasnt expecting to agree with tim when I clicked this link, hah!? I’d gladly pay for shipping to pakistan on a box of ’em, but not the flags themselves.
?
I wonder if these flags in salute of “Our Dear Leader” were made in China ?
Or Indonesia?…..? 😉
Is that the new Regime Flag we’re all going to pledge allegiance too?? Instead of Goose Stepping down Hollywood Blvd, we’re going to Break-Dance?? Really?? Really?
At a time when the American flag is being burned, spat-upon and disrespected, it is fitting that the Obama regime would bring this Peter Max inspired image out.
It just shows Obama’s utter dislike of anything America and patriotic.
now we have this?? http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2012/09/obama-campaign-quietly-ditches-faux-flag.php?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+powerlineblog%2Flivefeed+%28Power+Line%29
the o logo is appropriately empty/void.? the red represents those dragged away against their will–from/toward the right.? hmmm. . .?? would that be irony or foreshadowing?? november will tell. . .
And what about that mustard colored magic carpet he has behind him at press conferences – instead of? an American flag?
