The blogosphere is abuzz over conservatives' charges that a logo being used by the Pentagon's Missile Defense Agency looks very much like a fusion of the Muslim crescent moon and star and the Obama campaign logo. Some folks even detected a similarity to the Iranian Space Agency logo.

Subject: The new logo - what gives
I did not know that the Missile Defense Agency was owned by the Obama administration but your new logo says that it is. Seriously, that POS Obama is doing everything he can to weaken the US military, why the kiss-ass logo? You should have a new one ready for 2012 when every communist, socialist, and world government type is going to be booted out.
here are the responses:

Sir-thanks for the email. The design has been used for almost three years on our recruiting materials, and we haven't substituted it for our official logo. If you go to mda.mil and look at our news releases and fact sheets, you will see our official logo. Thanks Rick

This design was developed three years ago for use on a variety of recruiting materials at universities, job fairs and other recruiting venues. It has not replaced the official Missile Defense Agency heraldry prominently displayed on our website as well as on all Agency news releases, fact sheets and other information materials. It also has no connection to any political entity or campaign, and was developed well in advance of the 2008 election.
Again, thank you for your email to the Missile Defense Agency.
Uniformity and conformity is useful in a state-run idiocracy.
IOW, Bush’s Fault!!!
I do not believe that explanation.
Hitler rising from the ashes.
When I clicked the link to the article, the Post still had the story, but had substituted a picture of a Hillary meeting, unrelated to the story. It does not show the logo!!!
I clicked on the “slide show” of Hillary’s meeting, and found three slides related to the story, but no logo! LOL!!!
Is this happening to anybody else?
