time for another teachable moment. Maybe Obama could show his BC and other documents. Fire his lawyers and donate a bit of money to this cause.

Does anybody close to Clearwater know of a donation effort. I'll donate

CLEARWATER (Bay News 9) -- Money is so tight in Clearwater that the city can no longer afford to fly the American flag.

The city's parks and recreation director ordered the removal of more than a dozen flagpoles from across the city this week, saying that budget cuts make it impossible to properly care for the flags.

According to Bay News 9's partner paper, the St. Petersburg Times, the city says lighting flags at night and removing them if they are damaged are tasks the city cannot afford to worry about anymore.
