Hussein Obama ordered U.S. flags at half staff to honor a South African Communist, something he refused to do for stalwart British ally Margaret Thatcher upon her death or for slain American patriot, Chris Kyle.
Share that with all the deniers.

A foreign born communist is not worthy of an American half-mast flag. That being said we shouldn’t lower the flag for Mandela either.

I heard the IRS stopped by his house this weekend.

And after his audit, he´ll get a few visits from the Secret Service, the F.B.I, and he´ll find himself in a tangle with the news media.

An elected sheriff doesn’t take orders from the president. Good for him. Some of us need to be reminded that the president isn’t our boss. He;s not a king.

Nelson Mandela did great things for his country and was a brave man but he was not an AMERICAN!!! I agree totally.
Flying the flag at half staff should be reserved for the loss of great Americans; statesmen and heroes.
Perhaps the flag could be flown at half staff for a foreign national that has done great service for the United States or was a great leader of an important ally. (Winston Churchill who was half American for example)

Obama can only require US Flags at Federal Offices and properties be flown at half staff,(States, Counties, and Cities are free to do as they please). In Mandella’s case the US Flag at half staff is unwarranted and undeserved. But consider the source.

Won’t say where it is, but saw a flag the past few days that is always lowered with Dear Leader orders it, except this time...
