In a column for Townhall.com, action star and conservative activist Chuck Norris calls on tea partiers to stop using the modern American flag as a means of protest against the current administration. And if you insist on using the 50-star flag, well, you can buy a tea-stained one for just $73.50 to show "solidarity with our Founders."

The american flag is not the porperty of any US administration but for the country as a whole. I dont think the founding fathers would be very happy about it.

I suggest you fly some revolutionary flag in lieu of your 50-star flag over the next year. Post the 13-star Betsy Ross flag, Navy Jack or Gadsden flag ("Don't Tread on Me") or any representation that tells the story of Old Glory and makes a stand for our Founders' vision of America.
(If you insist on posting a modern USA flag, too, then get one that is tea-stained to show your solidarity with our Founders.)

Yet another Anti-American sentiment that the right wing will eat up.
Hey guys, remember that saying frm the last 8 years you loved to use so much? Love it or leave it. Bye, Chuck, and take the others with you.

It's anti American because he advocating something other than the American flag.
Of course, patriots know that the 50-star flag truly represents one nation under God and our Founders' republic, but modernists simply don't get it. So what do you say we make a statement by flying a different flag and educate our neighbors when they ask us, "Why are you flying that flag instead of the contemporary Stars and Stripes?"
