Down Flag
Following the devastating earthquake in Haiti , the United States rushed in to help - with money, medicine, and manpower. To date, we've already given over $179 million in humanitarian aid... but Barack Obama has just ordered all U.S. installations to take down their American flags, lest we be seen as an "occupying army" rather than "international partners."
It is patently appalling that a president of the United States would consider our flag to be a symbol of militaristic takeovers and colonialism, especially when serving (to a greater degree than any other nation on Earth) a humanitarian purpose.Additionally, who would think we'd want to occupy Haiti ?! No other country giving aid in Haiti has lowered its flag. But then again, no other country has a leader who is offended by their own flag

Just another horrifying example of an OBAMANATION!
I don't understand the American Flag as always meant a safe haven for the oppressed, those in need. The only people who are offended by our flag are people who think they have a right to oppress others, take what they want for thier own need. If Oboma is not proud of the flag of the country as swarn to defend maybe he doesn't need to be president.
