Study: U.S. Flag Only Boosts GOP or Time for Left to remove

User avatar
Comrades,

this does not speak well for Papa Obama and our dreams to build a Progressive utopia

Just a brief exposure to an image of the American flag shifts voters, even Democrats, to Republican beliefs, attitudes and voting behavior even though most don't believe it will impact their politics, according to a new two-year study just published in the scholarly Psychological Science.
What's more, according to three authors from the University Chicago, Cornell University and Hebrew University, the impact had staying power.

-We must, effective immediately, remove the flag from our events.

-We must fight in court the placement of the flag in any public places
with the argument that it infringes on people's rights

-We must hide behind our favorite causes to complete this mission- it is for children; it is racist; it offends the lower classes

The flag must go, so our Progressive dreams can live on

Image

But what can we ever replace it with....?
We need to start a "grass roots" movement to replace with something
that is more befitting Papa Obama and our goals

Perhaps, a few suggestions

Comrade Neotrotsky,


Fear not-- We can still convert the Flag into an icon inducing independents to favor our Progressive Agenda instead of the ReichWingers by reviving the Obama Anthem, which YouTube/Google failed to realise was included among the videos on an account they terminated through their misapplication of political corretness, but that video is still alive and viewable (albeit in the cursed wmv format developed by the cursed capitalist tool, Bill Gates) at https://politicalxray.com/ObamaAnthem-HQL.htm.

How the %$@#!% are we supposed to PROGRESS if we keep having to go over this???
So...are you going to denounce yourselves, or must I do the honors?

Geez!

Your message rings true, Comrade Neotrotsky. It is often so that the flag can remind people of their own selfish desires. Removing the flag is a good start, but we must go further! In the book Predictably Irrational the author tells how the mere mention of money changes how people act. You can of course guess how the Capitalist subliminal message works on the weakminded voter: he gets confused and forgets to vote correctly.

I humbly suggest that we replace "money" with carbon credits, foodstamps and special drawing rights. We must also remove the word "money" from all progressive dictionaries. May I remind you that this is not without precedence, as we have in the past already managed to redefine what is "money" (just ask Chairman Bernanke). Now that the word is meaningless we can safely work to remove it. I have already begun correcting the dictionaries at the local library. Also rest assured that any "money" sent in the post will be accidentally misplaced from now on.


Image I would not recommend Predictably Irrational, except as a study in the insanity of game theory.

How can this symbol of freedom's failure be allowed to obscure our view of The World of Next Tuesday? It cannot! It MUST not! It reduces progs to tears of frustration wherever it is seen by them, even on postage stamps. I like the idea of Dear Leader's confident, brilliant face on flag but images shown here are much too wimpy. We must use one that has him looking upward, toward our bright socialist future.

Good points all around but remember, when the Obamacard is in full effect, we will have no further need of money.

Based on Laika's idea, I make this back in '09:

Damn straight. And I can't get a single flag manufacturer. I wonder why?

Anybody get Bill Ayer's take on this?
One of Obama's closest buddies...and an unrepentant expert on the care and feeding of the American flag.

Comrade Raum,

One mustn't forget this most important accessory to compliment our Dear Leader Flag™.

My wallet already redistributes most of what is put into it to my wife and daughters...

Has the Dear Leader (PBUH) perfected this design?

User avatar
Comrade Tovarichi,

Indeed he has. He has raised it to an art form. His 'hand' is always in your pocket.

User avatar
Such GLORIOUSNESS! I was proud to mail in my taxes, but why bother if Dear Leader can get it directly? I must have one of these wallets so that I may re-distribute the money I was providing to the Unionized U.S. Postal Service, we can bypass them and roll that amount straight into an entitlement program and it will be even more efficient than Direct Deposit!

Dear Leader's awsomeness and wisdom grows more awsome and wise with his advanced years!

Comrade Tovarichi,

We must NEVER allow our thoughts to even wander out of bounds into the territory of thinking that was an entrepreneurial KAPITALIST who came up with this Obama Wallet™, not only to make a statement, but also to profit from the sales.

To do so would fall under the category of "Thought Crime" and would land us not only a very severe denunciation, but several YEARS in the Gulag™.

This is Dear Leader's special wallet for us Proles to show we are more equally patriotic with our contributions to the redistribution of OPM. We wave our Obama Flag™ while we proudly remember his 'hand' is in our wallets.

HAIL OBAMA!

entrepreneurial KAPITALIST ? WHERE? I shall pay short attention to such! Image I need only 9mm of jacketed hollow-point re-education at 1400 feet per second...

The problem with the flag is that it is a symbol of something bigger than the individual. I know that we're all progs here, and all equal in Lenin's eyes, but the real reason to be a prog is the absence of personal responsibility. The flag implies America which implies something bigger than we are which implies personal responsibility.

Why do you think that Dear Omoron killed manned spaceflight?
