Can You Pick Out the Flag Gaffe on Obama‘s New ’Julia’ Site? We Did

The Obama campaign’s new “Life of Julia” tool has led to no shortage of mocking parodies of the faceless, fictional female guided through life by the president’s programs.
The efficacy of Obama’s policies — and the hardships “Julia” would befall under a Romney administration — are certainly up for debate. One thing that’s not? Whoever created Julia and her world really should have brushed up on their flag etiquette.
From “The Life of Julia,” age 25:
Julia’s college graduation podium is flanked by two flags — the U.S.’s and a generic “U.” The American flag is to the would-be speaker’s left, while U’s is on the right. So what’s wrong with that?
From the U.S. Flag Code:
When displayed from a staff in a church or public auditorium, the flag of the United States of America should hold the position of superior prominence, in advance of the audience, and in the position of honor at the clergyman’s or speaker’s right as he faces the audience. Any other flag so displayed should be placed on the left of the clergyman or speaker or to the right of the audience.
Yikes. Pretty embarrassing flub for a national presidential campaign. Good thing it’s only the first one.

A country so exceptional that millions of people are in a queue to come and have the privilege to be welcomed as a citizen of the USA!!! The tragedy is that so many people here do not understand this is reality! Because of our sacred freedom we have allowed Leftist and revolutionaries to wash our children brains indoctrinating new generations with a fake history in biased education programs.

Posted on May 5, 2012 at 3:58pmDisenlightened, I think you hit the nail on the head. THAT is the kind of woman this administration and its followers hope Julia grows up to be. A total failure, not looking to the gov’t for help, but so dependent on the gov‘t that she can’t help but vote for more of it.
Yep, there is definitely a war on women going on, but I don‘t quite think it’s the conservatives waging it…
And Uranium Wedge, I hear what you are saying, but I have to disagree. It’s small things like this that 1) erode our society 2) make people stop caring about protocol and tradition and 3) serve as an indicator for just what type of people we are dealing with. Things like the flag displayed in the wrong place or equal to a liberal university flag or with Obama’s face on it may seem little to some, but not to those who bled and died for that flag. It’s the one thing we all should hold most sacred, and anyone who doesn‘t take the time to make sure it’s given it’s rightful honor should not be the leader of this great nation and the #1 representative of that flag.
And I agree with many of you… the name Julia is NOT an accident. Thank you George Orwell.

Posted on May 5, 2012 at 6:13pmForget the flag, The text of that stupid picture is an out and out lie: If Julia already has her student loans, the rates will stay where they are. It is only new loans that would feature increased interest rates.
But even that is beside the point. Someone needs to be asking why colleges increase their tuition 8 to 12% a year when the inflation rate is nowhere near that. Hint: the answer lies in the fact that government is involved in the education business with guaranteed student loans.
When I went to a state university 40 years ago, it cost 230 dollars a semester. Now, it’s nearly 5,000 dollars. That’s an increase of 21 times over. Yet wages and prices for everything else have increased maybe 5-8 times since then. As long as government keeps dumping money into secondary education, the prices will not be competitive and will continue to skyrocket.

After about 2 minutes, she finally deduced that I was to get 4 $1.00 bills and 75 cents. My wife told me I should tap on the window and inform her that she owed me .25. I told my wife I would pay .25 to see how dumb our kids are today. I’m sure that if I had asked her to text me in 2 seconds flat she probably would have.

2. GOD know what that purpose is
3. We will NOT thrive if things are given/handed to us
4. No human being can control the world, the people, the nature, the events – regardless of how many people they slaughter while trying to ‘do good’.
5. Obama needs to be removed and put in a mental hospital (as do the Cass Sunsteins, the Valarie Jarrets, the Axelrods, the entire group of Marxists/Communists/Muslim/Anarchists

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 4:56pmlooks like on Obamanation’s flag the Ol Stars n Stripes lost a few stars too! Ahh but what’s in a number eh? 20….50…..57….all the same to him…of course the less of those pesky “states rights” he has to deal with the better, so 20 stars might just be wishful thinking!

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 7:12pmMore true words have yet to be spoken. The only thing I worry about is if it looks as thought there is no way he can win with out cheating, he will proclaim marshal law and then look out. We will all be in trouble then.

Posted on May 5, 2012 at 2:07amIf Obongo declares Marshall Law before Nov, then it is the admin that will be in (big) trouble, not the people. I seriously doubt he can do this (short of a disaster far worse than anything we’ve seen before) since Lincoln himself during the hieght of the civil war (when the outcome was still very much in doubt) did not suspend the election of 1864.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 4:54pmwhy would a communist anti-American and non-American such as obama be expected to know anything about our National proud RESPECT for the Flag that millions of Americans have died for, like, also, where to put his hand when the Anthem is played, and the Allegiance is said, and how to behave when the Flag is displayed — and like no sneering in agreement at “ALL THIS FOR A D*MN FLAG…” etc etc.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 4:54pmShouldn’t the American flag also be higher than the University flag?
Report Post »USNRET04
Posted on May 4, 2012 at 6:06pmThe U.S. Flag Code allows for flying flags at the same height. For flag poles of the same height, the U.S. Flag should always be in the senior position (the flag’s right – on the left as you are viewing it).
On a separate and personal pet peeve of mine, no company flag, including a college flag, should be flown on the same pole as the U.S. flag.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 4:53pmYou got them good blaze. This is definitive proof that President Obama and his minions are american hating comunists that will stop at nothing to undermine our country.
When you post stories like this it just hurts the blazes credibility as a news source. Talk about nit picking. How about some in depth analysis on todays job numbers or the future of the economy.
Too anyone who writes back “Why did you read the article then?”, this is my resposne. If i go to a restaurant I like and expect to get great service and quality food and don’t what do I do? I leave a comment for the manager so hopefully next time my services is better. This is my way of telling the blaze to get better stories and don’t feed me crap.

I just think this is a stupid story and feeds into a narative that liberals love that we are somehow ignorant fools that follow men like Beck or Limbaugh blindly without questioning the stories they present us. The larger story should be the Julia advertisement.

Report Post »No this shows you exactly how much thought, preparation and research Obama and crew actually put into their messages, Findings and statistics they are spewing on the American public. True Presidential material it merely shows his ineptness of his administration and himself. The office does require some decorum and professionalism.

Posted on May 4, 2012 at 4:52pmThe Obamas hate the flag and all it symbolises within our nation; hence he gives the superiour positoin to the generic university (socialist teaching mills) flag preeminance over Old Glory.
