This photograph was taken in 1920 by 13-year-old Francis Moore of Ogden, Utah. Give it a caption, o, witty ‘ninnies!
(Political flavors okay, as long as they’re not mean-spirited.)
The scoundrels on the left hand of God resort to patriotism once again.

Wait. I guess it should really say, “I am not a goat!”

Who you calling a flag waving old goat? I resemble that!

It’s the Obama Administration’s environmentally-friendly way of disposing of outdated American flags… and their poles.
