AVARES The Lake County Democratic Party removed an American flag depicting an image of President Barack Obama at its headquarters this afternoon after several veterans complained.
"That's a complete desecration of the American flag," local veteran Donald Van Beck said.
The controversial flag had been flying under an American flag on the same flag pole. It has an image of Obama in the blue section where the stars are normally located. A similar flag was available for sale on eBay for $12.95.
Today, half a dozen veterans arrived at the party headquarters in Tavares and Van Beck asked party chair Nancy Hurlbert to take down the flag.
She responded that she would research the matter and wouldn't take it down immediately, prompting Van Beck to say that he would take it down. However, Hulbert said they would be trespassing on private property.

There. Fixed it.
Democrats are so disgusting.
WTH????
What kind of sick joke is that?
My how we've lowered our ethical, moral and patriotic standards. I remember back in the '60's when my dad was FURIOUS because this flag was too close to ours.. Believe it or not, this flag caused controversy back then.. Now you have a flag the same colors as ours with our president in the blue field and there probably won't be much controversy about it (except for here).
It all points back to the fact that because 0bama is black he is shielded from criticism for his actions by a weapon known as the 'race card'. This ongoing phenomena has done more damage to America than any other single event, disaster, war, uprising, depression.., you name it. One of the reasons we need a new president is IT WILL BE ALLOWABLE for him to be held accountable for his actions.. 0bama is not, for the aforementioned reasons.
I can relate. I know exactly what you mean.
Don’t worry. I put PLENTY of flame retardant on our flag up top before I Photoshopped the flames down below. LOL
Truer words were never spoken.
It doesn't make sense for democrats to do this.They know how the Obamas and their friends hate the American flag.
vaudine
Wow, didn’t think they’d be the brazen in an election year. Sure, in 2013, I could see them flying Obama flags over vet organizations.
This is awful. I hope the vets pull the defaced flag (that’s the correct term), and burn it.

Cults of personality. It never ends well.
Where’s the blood pressure and barf alert? OMG, Is that Mussolini’s twin? Oh, yes, it’s the Liberal God.
Any leader that has his face plastered onto a national flag of the nation is a despot, tyrant, dictator and an elitist, egomaniac leader!!! Obama, the traitor and destroyer of these United States of America, fits the bill perfectly!!!! Wake up, America. You are asleep at the wheel!!!
