Since when have only 3055 Americans died in the Iraq war? Is this otherwise commendable display being organized by nitwits?

I second the low count. Also, 3000 "represent[s]" 3055? Why not just buy the extra 55 flags? You protest with the supplies you have, not the supplies you wish you had?

You love Obama so much, what about the war on Afghanistan and all the people killed and mutilated over there? The war that Obama wants to "win"?

Gosh, people. Like sociological accuracy ever mattered a damn—this is art.

Okay okay, so I got the shot from their website. More people have karked it since then. Apologies.

And if somebody just asked me to defend a specific Obama policy, you're barking up the wrong tree. I like him because he's good looking and smokes, and he's not Hillary Clinton. I've got absolutely no idea about his policies.
