You mean, other than the different colors, typeface, words and the lack of an american-flag themed shield on the chest....

Really, people.

Really, people.
The law implies that likeness that would lead to the assumption that the government approves of the person using it is illegal. From there it is a matter of opinion, but I definitely think that his use of that is misleading, which would mean that it violates the law. He should change it as quickly as possible.

Actually it should be a chicken with a white flag in one claw, the Koran in the other.

As quickly as he changed his opinion on pulling out of Iraq. Or his statements to Israel, or his support of Reverend Wright, or his inability to seperate himself from the church, or ...

Come on people - between his fetish for Coke and Gay White Males he has no time for such silly accusations.
