Okay, I just read this article(s), and my blood pressure is about through the roof.

A veteran of three wars who was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor is now facing an unlikely enemy — his neighbors.
Col.
Van T. Barfoot, 90, has raised the Stars and Stripes every day at
sunrise and lowered them every day at sunset since he served in the
U.S. Army. But on Tuesday he received a letter from the law firm that
represents his homeowners' association, ordering him to remove the
flagpole from his Richmond, Va. yard by 5 p.m. on Friday or face "legal
action."

Col. Van T. Barfoot, a local Medal of Honor winner, is under the gun from his Henrico County community's homeowner association.
In a five-paragraph letter to Barfoot that he received yesterday,
Barfoot is being ordered to remove a flagpole from his yard. The
decorated veteran of three wars, now 90 years old, raises the American
flag every morning on the pole, then lowers and folds the flag at dusk
each day in a three-corner military fashion.
But B.E.V....where does Obama fit into this, I don't read anything about him?? You can bet.....at the end of this story.....the person who first brought this issue up against Col. Barfoot is an Obama supporter/voter. Bet on it.
Now for the Judas in this: I was going to say the Coates & Davenport law firm in Richmond whom is ordering Barfoot to remove the pole by 5 p.m. Friday or face "legal action.." I imagine Coates & Davenport espouse common man virtues in their ads to the community in general in Richmond, but for the sake of the dollar, they took on and put forth this case...in the name of justice.....for the dollar. But I would like to know....WHO...started this insane, un-American act of non-violent hate towards Col. Barfoot. WHO is the coward(s) that hides behind a law firm......find that person and you'll find an Obama voter.
