Is this guy insulting the collective intelligence of THOUSANDS of us now?

________________________________________________

However, Rick Lehner, Washington spokesman for Missile Defense Agency, laughed off the notion in an interview with WND today.

“I think it’s just people who are just,” he hesitated for a moment, “different.”

Lehner laughed at the comparisons and said, “I don’t know where they would even begin to come up with something like that. It’s ridiculous.”

He said the logo was designed for use on recruiting materials three years ago, and that the official Missile Defense Agency logo features five colors and says Missile Defense Agency Department of Defense.

“That’s our official logo,” Lehner said. “The other one was just developed for recruiting materials years before the Obama campaign. We’re trying to attract a younger workforce because we want to get kids out of college. Instead of using the official shield, a company that the agency hired in Washington, D.C., to do recruiting stuff developed that logo.”

He explained that the white, eight-pronged explosion signifies an intercepted missile.

“That’s why we have a star,” he said, laughing. “It’s really not a star; it’s a flash from the interception of a missile.”

Lehner said the agency redesigned its website “about 14 or 15 months ago” and used the recruiting emblem for a more contemporary look. The official logo is still featured in the bottom left corner of the website, though it is much smaller and less prominent than the recruiting symbol.

As for any link between the Missile Defense Agency’s recruiting insignia and an Islamic crescent or the Obama campaign logo, Lehner added,((( “I don’t understand why people would make that connection.” )))

I cannot phantom how after being the DC spokesman for many years , can he NOT realise what that logo looked like, come on now!

Mayhaps he doesn’t know a damn thing about the leftie that created it?

From now on we'll try to be the same.

Uh, maybe because you designed a visual logo that *looks* like those things? Visual imagery IS a voluntary choice, you know.

A misdirect cover story is just that a cover story. BS. It is clearly a variation of Obama’s symbol. Acorn has a cover story as well.

Do you buy into it? Not I.

They are brazen and flaunt it.
