I pledge allegiance, to the flag, of the United States of Obama … huh?? Again???

**Posted by Phineas

I thought it was pretty creepy the first time, but now you can buy your very own Barack Obama flag from Barack Obama himself!

Obama dear leader flag — The Great Banner of Dear Leader?

And this can be yours for only $35!

L’Etat c’est Obama?

Jim Geraghty has sometimes called Obama “Our Munificent Sun-King.” Whoever knew Obama would agree?

Most of us.

Suggested reading: Go to http://washingtonexaminer.com/obama and read “The Obama You Don’t Know”. It’ll scare the commiecrat out of you.

I really didn’t think I could HATE this POS POTUS any more than I do, but I can’t believe this! What an arrogant jacka$$.

If he gets elected again, he will probably build arenas for everyone to go and worship him. I despise this POTUS more than any other elected during my lifetime.

HE MUST GO!!!

This is creepier than the man himself!

And Drew, you forgot the “crescent.”

This comes close to violating US Code regarding the flag. Probably enough wiggle room to let his handlers and lap dogs avoid discomfort. This truly is pretty creepy. But, should anyone have the bucks to spare, would it be OK to buy one and burn it as an exercise of free speech?

It actually makes perfect sense.

Francis Bellamy, the author of the Pledge, was a former Baptist minister who preached that Jesus was a socialist and advocated income taxation, central banking, nationalized education, nationalization of industry, and other tenets of socialism. His challenge was how to replace the federalist view of the country (where states and individual rights were sovereign) with a nationalist one that would pave the foundation for a central socialist government.

The “one nation, indivisible” wording was especially important to Bellamy for achieving his vision of socialism through a consolidated, monopoly government. He even considered adding the the socialist bywords, “fraternity and equality”, but knew that state superintendents of education on his committee were against equality for women and African Americans.

Re-education of the public would prove difficult. But if American youth could to be taught “loyalty to the state”, it would pave the way for the socialist utopia that was described in his famous socialist cousin Edward Bellamy’s ‘Looking Backward”. The place to start would need to be primary education. The public schools could be used teach blind obedience to the central state. They planned a “National Public School Celebration” in 1892, which was the first national propaganda campaign on behalf of the Pledge of Allegiance. It was a massive campaign that involved government schools and politicians throughout the country. The government schools were promoted, along with the Pledge, while private schools, especially parochial ones, were criticized.

Students were taught to recite the Pledge with their arms outstretched, palms up. This was the custom in American public schools from the turn of the twentieth century until around 1950, when it was apparently decided by public school officials that the Nazi-like salute was in bad taste.

If you want to see what the original vision of indoctrination looked like go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellamy_salute. If that doesn’t give you pause…

Add the face of the leader to the flag and your socialist state is ready to go. Too bad “under God” in the Pledge is the last foothold of religion for Christians in the public schools, so otherwise patriotic conservatives are compelled to support the kind of government imposed indoctrination they would ordinarily be railing against.

Personally I’m waiting for the Barack Obama action figures – you know, the ones where he’s wearing the special ops fatigues and gear just as he did when he killed bin Laden.

@Tex–I was thinking the same thing when I remembered a T-shirt that was popular in the ’80’s showing Buckwheat from “The Little Rascals” in commando dress holding a weapon with the inscription “Buckbo”, an obvious take-off on Rambo.

Hmmm. It closely resembles those bloody fingerprints on the post at the U.S. Embassy in Benghazi. And yes, O really is that stupid.

@Carlos–The sickle is the only crescent-shaped figure on an old Russian flag.

@Drew – I was thinking more in terms of bowing and scraping to every imam that happened to walk by, and to all the despotic politicos in Arab countries…
