WASHINGTON – The White House reportedly is set to announce a redesign of the American flag.
Reports from sources close to the White House say that President Obama felt that the American flag, “like the Constitution,” was old and needed updating.
Here’s what the new flag will look like:
The administration is supposedly ordering all government buildings to begin displaying the flag on August 4th, 2012. That’s the President’s 51st birthday.
“The old flag has become a negative symbol around the world and many people in other countries are often burning it in protest,” said an aide close to White House insiders. ”The new flag will be a symbol of hope and change for the world and the White House believes that there will be far fewer flag burnings across the globe with the new flag.”
The Administration feels that President Obama’s face immediately makes a person think of the best parts of America: equality, fairness and respect. “President Obama’s face is more unifying than 50 stars,” an aide to a Democratic operative said. “Out of many, one.”
The President is reportedly planning on making a speech at the official unveiling of the flag. In the speech, he intends to apologize to the world for the negative symbol that the flag has become. ”Our new flag is one that will bring the world together, in harmony, peace and love,” a senior aide reportedly told WWN.
The flag is already being flown outside the Capitol Building:
There are some houses in Lake County, Florida that got an “advanced copy” of the flag – and are proudly flying it.
But tempers are flaring over the new version of the American flag. A veterans group says the flag is an outrage. Korean war veteran Don Van Beck said his blood was boiling.
“I can’t describe how upset I was because you just don’t do that to the American flag,” Van Beck said.
The White House appreciates Van Beck’s position, but his views will not stop production of the new flag. The Federal Reserve has reportedly already set aside $300 million – so every man, woman and child in American can have a flag.
The Administration is also planning to sponsor an official “American” basketball sneaker:
America, America…
this is hogwash! The shoes have the picture on the wrong side! It should be on the sole so we can walk on his face! uuggghhh…I'm sure this is an untrue story but so many people believe this garbage!
Why would they put his anus on the flag, oops my bad.
his face and ass look the same…
This is a joke, right?
THIS IS WRONG, ITS THE STARS THAT MEAN ALOT SHOWING WHAT HAS JOINED AMERICA. OBAMA HAAS GONE TOO FAR.. CHANGING IT TO HAVE HIS PICTURE ON IT IS COMMUNISM AND DISGRACEFUL.
That is the pic that should be on should be on rolls of toilet paper.
this is bs!! the flag has stood for almost 300 years and now you want to change it??? what has obama done really? he hasnt helped the debt, or the economy. sure he got minimum wage raised, but that was a waste of time because everything else went up with it!! so far he hasnt kept a single campaign promise that i can see…leave the flag alone!
Ummm? You. Are. A. Idiot.
They would NEVER put BLACK MANS face o the American flag!!!
You are a brainless, stupid idiot. I bet I could build a web page right now and put on there that the world was going to end tomorrow and there will be lots of pain, torture and grief, you and all these idiots on here that believe everything they read would kill themselves and their families tonight so as not to endure the pain, torture and grief. It is easy to put anything on the Internet even an idiot like you could do it…lmao

Geeze, you and CJ both need to go online and order some more gray cells. The story is a fake, a joke, a prank, an April Fool – just like you both.
I can’t believe that some people that have posted this on facebook and commented here actually think it’s real. Are there really that many ignorant hicks with internet access in the south?
its Really nice, weeklyworldnews.com u doig good job………….
this is aryan http://www.7puls.blogspot.com
Is American flag really changing?
NOT some people…. A LOT OF PEOPLE.. Will believe ANYTHING THEY READ/SEE SMH!!!
And it was terrorists that guided planes into the WTC.
Are you stupid hillbillies serious? You actually believe this!? You are 100% what is wrong with America! Holy shit!
you all must be stupid!!! just thinking that peoples think that any news from "The weekly world news" is based on truth IT SCARE ME. Boy, go get a brain please!
That's funny. The Weekly World News, a trusted and reliable source for current events…
Bawhahahaha!
Next week they will come out with a story announcing Whitney Houston and Donna Summers will rise from the dead and form a duo called "Soul Sisters!"
If this is real, I say Obama is either insane or planning to do a Hitler.
That was my thought too. He doesn't realize that we all aren't that stupid. There will be a war right here in the good old USA….Against him. How is that hope and peace thing working for you….His campaign motto should be "Me, mine, all about obama".
Uh, Stacey, maybe you ARE. This is a satire site and you swallowed the fakery full-bore.
Heck, it works for Fox 24/7 so why not here.

I'm with the American Nazi Party and even I think anyone who would believe this needs a brain transplant.
They're actually not too far off….

Fuck Obama, fuck the Flag nd Fuck you all.
I for on will proudly burn his flag the minute I could get my hands on it he is a disgrace to this country and the world. in short a first class MORON
AMEN AND I WILL SUPPLY THE MATCHES gladly. MY husband died for our flag that has been a symbol of our country since 1814. also my past ancestors have fought and died for this country –
. we are a military family. THIS should be the last straw. Come on America is this all you think of our nation? Our flag stands for so much but not to be made into a thing like that just because he wants tp show the world what a moron looks like
If you are a military family please apply some "military intelligence". You're so hateful you fell for a joke story designed to reel in crowds of gullible right-wing types who can't fact-check worth squat.
Would you put it past this moron? I just heard on the news this morning he designed a new campaign flag with his symbol where the stars are, and bloody looking stripes where the real stripes should be. Our flga should not be messed with!
yes this man is as evil as satan himself. im a christian and i cant believe the ignorance of the people to have put this man in office.they call him an amature but he knows exactly what he is doing. we need a revival in america that is our only hope.on the night of the election i woke up in the lats hours and i heard in my spirit that this manwould be called the son of the sun. i didnt know what that meant it took one year for me to find out that its a term for pharoah.only god can deliver us from another dictator like hitler. people check more into his back ground before you vote.
So I take it you weren't happy when the Reagan/Bush campaign did the same, huh?
You and the 2 Bible-thumping clowns who agree with you are so overcome with hatred that you don't even recognize a satire when you see it. Please go back to watching Fox and stay off the web.
It'll be a cold day in hell when they pry my rifle from my cold dead fingers before Obama changes our flag. 30 year US Army Infantry Veteran.
