Obama Removes American Flag from His Plane

Obama Removes American Flag From His Plane
Barack Obama recently finished a $500,000 total overhaul of his 757. And as part of the new design, he decided to remove the American flag from the tail.

What American running for President of the United States would remove the symbol of his country? And worse, he replaced the flag with it with a symbol of himself.

top Tail of Obamas planeTurns out this email is true – but with an explanation. While the airplane was complete refitted inside and out, the flags were replaced from stylized trademarked company logos that were North American's airlines commercial markings to the red white and blue Obama "O" campaign logo. The standard square flag by the registration number remains (see below).

Obama could have replaced the stylized flag logo which he could not use due to trade mark issues with a standard rectangular American Flag. This was obviously poor choice on his point considering how much mud has been slung at him about his patriotism.
