Same thing that went on in his head sitting in Rev Wrights "church" for 20 years. Obviously, he genuinely despises what you'd call traditional, middle American values. Obama has no use for, nor can he begin to relate to, anyone unlike himself. |

Well,that must be satisfying.
Make sure you ignore the facts and continue to grasp at straws. Even when you are wrong,you keep insisting you are right. Silly Jeff

I'll bring that up as an option. Thanks.

No problem. We would be glad to do it - I'll even pick up the flag from him.

You just made my /sarc point - you would be in a decidedly small minority in your home state.

You're joking right?

Nope - sunrise to sunset, afterward it must be lit.
Kevin is extremely well versed in the Flag code / etiquette. Surprisingly how most people don't know much about it - guess it is taboo to talk about in schools today (and the last 40 years) |

Your calculus has an error as you are misdefining variables.

If the flag looks like crap....Per the US Flag Code...
"The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning."
and if he's flying it all winter, I hope he's taking it down at night or at least has a light on it.
US Flag Code
"It is the universal custom to display the flag only from sunrise to sunset on buildings and on stationary flagstaffs in the open. However, when a patriotic effect is desired, the flag may be displayed twenty-four hours a day if properly illuminated during the hours of darkness."
