Election 2012

Obama Unveils New American Flag

Nov. 12, 2012
Tweet

President Barack Obama introduced a new flag today for the United States of America.

At a press conference in Washington, D.C. the recently reelected socialist declared that he had issued an executive order replacing the traditional stars-and-stripes with a new design intended to be  more "progressive and diverse."

The brand new American flag features a green and red color scheme, meant to symbolize Islam and Socialism, respectively. The red portion sports a Soviet hammer and sickle and six French fleur-de-lys, representing the six "important states" of California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, Vermont, and Hawaii.

The green section features the phrase "People's Republic of America'" written in Arabic. Just above the script is a marijuana leaf celebrating America's drug culture.

So Gallantly Scheming...

The controversial content of the flag attracted intense criticism from the reporters attending the event, but Obama was undeterred:

"Look I earned political capital in this campaign and I intend to spend it. I'm not running for reelection again. So I can do what I want, when I want. America's an Islamic, Socialist, 420-friendly nation now. And it needs a flag to match."

Constitutional experts say Obama has the legal right to fly the flag over all government buildings. However, to make the flag the permanent official flag of the United States would take an act of Congress. Such a bill would likely sail through the Democratic Sentate, but face a stiffer challenge in the Republican controlled House.

For Shirley Shepard, a homemaker from Lubbock, Texas, Obama's new power grab underscores the importance of the conservative movement:

"This exactly why we need Republicans in Washington. If it weren't for conservatives like my congressman, we'd be like North Korea by now."

    No funny, absolutely absurd. Crazy people like Victoria Jackson would probably believe this farce of a story. There’s way too much anger out there, perhaps you should reconsider this one.

    I get that it’s all satire… But I am a little bit sick of seeing Arabic script used in all the wrong ways! How hard is it to do some research into how to translate a sentence into Arabic in the right way and how to use the script correctly on Photoshop or whichever design software you are using?

  • DailyCurrant

    You don’t explain how its wrong.

    1) If someone from Lubbock Texas opposes it… its probably the correct thing to do.

    2) Obama didn’t legalize pot. The people of Colorado and Washington did… on a state level (it’s still illegal on a federal level). So for those of you who want to put power into the states (conservatives)…you should be for it on a fundamental level because those 2 states want it.

    It’s good…but it could use a gay orgy and a scattering of aborted fetuses.

    ETA: This is my first visit here. It’s like, “Where have you been all my life, Daily Currant?”

    If people would believe in GOD more they would know they have nothing to fear, I say let people live their life as long as they not hurting anyone and you live yours. I believe President Obama did the right thing, other people have a right in this country as well and we all need to respect them as well. Gay people are nice and fun people although I really don’t believe a person is born gay it’s a choice they make during life and GOD didn’t make them that way but I still love them just the same. Love is every where and not hard to find anymore. PEACE!

    You’re wrong. It’s not a choice and that is a scientific fact.

  • jrtjrt

    Isn’t the phrase ” Peoples Republic of America” the same phrase that is written on Obama’s wedding ring?

  • Chat Pata

    Dude. The Arabic is not used the “wrong way”. It is used the “reverse”. It reads, “Al Sha’ab Jamhooriya America” translated “United States of America” :)

  • Chat Pata

    My guess is, Daily Currant used Google Translate and messed up. LOL

    This is what happens when you learn Intelligent Design instead of genetics in schools.

    The Marijuana leaf may just represent YOUR president’s (my dictator’s) love for reefer, bud, chronic, grass… Whatever pot users say these days. Just saying…
