Just when the flag pin issue was dieing down, it seems Barak Obama has some explaining to do about a revised presidential seal on his website that shows an American flag being pierced by an arrow.
First picked up by by Freeper "prayforpeaceofJerusalem", the logo also shows what appears to be an American Eagle in retreat and a rising moon.
"I don’t know how to begin a thread, yet...and am not confident enough to do so anyway, but please, some of you, bring attention to he fact that Obama’s logo, as seen on his web site, http://www.barackobama.com/images/bg.jpg shows an arrow or spear through the stars and stripes of the USA; the flag is depicted torn; an eagle is turned away from and is departing from over the flag symbol; a moon is rising over the USA stripes in a dark night; and above the frame, top right, the curve of the wings of an eagle are depicted from the rear, as it is seen lifting, to fly away."
An enhanced version of Obama's logo:
The original presidential seal with Eagle holding the arrows:
1. It’s not a flag.
2. It’s a shield and banner.
3. The banner is draped and twisted OVER the arrow.
Obama’s “Eagle” looks more like a vulture to me.
It looks like the eagle is laying an egg
WTF???
Now, I’ve seen everything!
Someone better save that image before they remove it.
I could be wrong, but I think the spear is really the flag’s staff.
But it’s no secret that he won’t wear the US flag pin; won’t cover his heart during the National Anthem; and already thinks the God-fearing are “bitter.”
That’s plenty to be suspect about!
Actually, I think it’s kind of cool.
...in an evil, ‘1984’ kind of way.
Retreating eagle, pierced flag, over a setting sun or rising moon-—just perfect for our new BHO government.
Yeah, I don't necessarily think there is a whole lot to this story. Maybe the real kernel of truth is that we have a presidential nominee who's character automatically puts such issues under close scrutiny.
Way to go Team Obama!!
Cost of Flag Lapel Pin: $2.19
Cost of 30 Second Media Buy on a Major Network: $355,000
Cost of Foundering and Incompetent Candidacy: PRICELESS!
You're dead-on right, and that's scary.
Where in the writings of the Founding Fathers is any indication that they thought the President of the United States should be seen as a Messiah?
Anybody want to ask George Washington, arguably the most humble of American Presidents, his opinion on that?
LOL :)
What do you think that moon-thing is?
B.Hussein Obama sure is desperate to use the Presidential Seal but the one he has come up with is imo an insult to the Original seal. Maybe one of his terrorist supporting friends designed this logo of his.
At worst, there is some malicious meaning. At best, it’s just weird and weak looking. It kind of reminds me of some of the kooky stuff Dennis Kucinich had (and might still have) on his website, cartoony type stuff.
This is nothing big, but anyone who buys that Obama truly loves America is ill.
teapot tempest.

yeah, this is bizarre and scary and should be publicized out there. The “shield” or whatever below the “eagle” looks like the Dome of the Rock over waves of sand. Just really ominous. What say you?
As for that white thing in the center, remember: In the 7th-century Arab pantheon, Allah was the Moon God.
You’re completely right. It is an arrow piercing the American flag, maybe the eagle too, and upon the whole a full moon is depicted rising. This is not a very patriotic design.
Weak is right. After using a few Photoshop filters to sharpen the lines, I concluded that it's not a flag, and the artist had little knowledge of eagle anatomy and no clear vision of what he was trying to say.
