Flag removal from the Obama campaign jet: the FULL story

Did you receive a host of e-mails about the flag removal from the tail of Obama’s campaign jet? Me too.

Is the story true? Well, yes and no. The flag removal story is half-true. The huge American flag was replaced by his own logo but a very small flag was put back on the plane

Most of the “big name” web sites didn’t get to the bottom of the story and only showed the large American flag replaced by Obama’s personal logo.

What they didn’t show is the American flag placed on the side of the plane

As shown below the Boeing 757 chartered from North American Airlines originally had a huge American Flag on the tail of the plane.



The huge American flag on the tail was replaced by Obama's personal logo. A new tiny flag was placed on the side of the fuselage, near the back of the plane next to the registration number as shown in the photo below:



Does that mean I have changed my mind about the arrogant Barack Hussein Obama? Not at all! By replacing a huge American flag with his own logo, he has proved just how much he loves himself. He loves himself more than the country he wants to govern.

By the way, John McCain does not have an American flag on the campaign plane he is chartering. The plane didn’t come with a flag and he didn’t add one.



Even the usually reliable Snopes didn’t get the entire story the first time.
