Man,
This guy has a HUGE ego... As part of a month-long aircraft makeover, a painted American flag was removed from the tail of Sen. Barack Obama's official campaign airplane and was replaced with the presidential candidate's trademark "O" symbol.The refurbished 757 was unveiled to members of the news media today, 41 of whom boarded the craft and took off to meet Obama in Amman, Jordan, where the presidential candidate will stop as part of a Middle Eastern and European tour. Obama traveled to the Mideast earlier this week on board a separate airplane. Fox News blogger Bonny Kapp, traveling on Obama's new airplane, reported: "The North American jet that flew Obama and his traveling crew around for much of the primary season was refurbished with new seats and power for each passenger a must on the campaign trail. And the plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the Obama 'O.'"

I was driving along east 38th street the other day, just west of Emerson Ave some fella had a tent type structure set up next to the street at the entrance to a gas station. He was selling Obama stuff! he has lots of different t shirts and flags and such for sale. Now I wonder.......is Obama getting a cut? |

I guess we shouldn't be surprised that he holds the importance of his campaign icon above the American flag, if he doesn't even feel the need to wear a flag pin or hold his hand above his heart when the national anthem is being played. I don't think that's "mean" to say about a presidential candidate--these are basic, routine things the potential leader of the country should be doing to respect the country, and he's obviously not doing them, which should be a red flag to all those who think he's a good choice be president. People need to be way more worried about this arrogant jerk than they are.
Powderfinger--if I were running for president of a country, I would begin by having an image of the flag of that country on my car and all other vehicles...
