It is still beyond me that this flag even remains available for purchase. It s a clear violation of the Flag Code and disrespectful to the American Flag.

Do you really want to hurt the flag?
If there was one thing Boy George did well, it was making a statement through his appearance.

Change “of a flag” You Can Count On
With all the money that goes to candidates for Presidency, you’d think they could hire a decent graphic artist that wouldn’t have Obamas head coming out of an upside down American Flag. Perhaps this is how someone got the idea for the Obama US Flag?
NBC Nightly News doesn’t know flag etiquette
We can thank NBC Nightly News for this one! Actually, their set decorator to be more exact. This has been analyzed by quite a few people and has acually been confirmed.
