    Obama's Dictator Flag.

    ROFL!

    Did you see the whole Ohio State Flag being Obama's new Dictatorship flag?

    Too funny.

    I don't mean to get all forum cop, but is it that hard to pull together a link?

    You know you've gone pretty far over the fringe when Michelle Malkin is talking you down.

    I'm relatively new here, but from what I understand our flag WAS created as a tribute to Obama. Well, it was more of a prophecy really.

    "In days yet come, the one known as 'O' shall arise. He will be of many races, and yet of none. He shall commune with animals and plumbers, yet they shall know him not. And yea, in these days, the 'O' shall reign triumphant, for his will be an iron fist, and a great empire shall be no more."

    This prophecy came in the mail with my new car title. I just assumed 'O' stood for Oprah, but since she's really more related to Chicago, it could be about Obama.

    On another forum one of the girls came up with this... Including it here for the rather loose references to a dictator.

    That's actually a pretty cool looking flag, and it's from Ohio? Who knew.

    I said the pledge of alliegance in the general direction of this one while growing up. It is the only state flag to not be a rectangle. Despite multiple tours of the State House, I cannot recall off hand of the "O" is short for Ohio. Regardless, its pretty boneheaded to not fact check something that obvious.

    P.S. If you don't mind my asking, what part of Ohio are you in Robert?

    I can't help wondering, if America wouldn't actually do better under an Obama dictatorship...

    See? You let the Europeans into the discussion and next thing you know you have royalty and titles. I stand with Washington and Jefferson, sir, and we will have no nobility in these United States!

    I didn't know dictator was a title. Usually dictators are called something like president or something.

    They're very concerned, but not very smart.

    I was thinking more along the lines of North Korean style worshipping.

    "Great Leader", "Great Father" or something along those lines. See above.

    Just because one sends dissidents to prison or gulag's doesn't mean one has to be rude about it.

    I hope you're not talking about all of us Europeans, because I am not particularly concerned.

    No, I meant the right wingers looking for something to whip themselves into a spit-flecked frenzy about.

    I would hope that if he is elected, that I could come before you one day and say, "Hey, there was no need to be alarmed, I was wrong."

    Because I care about the United States of America and what future we may have much more than I care about being right or being wrong, having my candidate win or having my candidate lose.
    Wow, what a resigned tone the conservative rhetoric has taken since four years ago.
