This man is an idiot. He succeeds in displaying his liberal arrogance and haughty pride. It’s as if Mr. Eason believes that he is the state and is therefore entitled to judge who should and shouldn’t be honored by the state.
RALEIGH – L.F. Eason III gave up the only job he’d ever had rather than lower a flag to honor former U.S. Sen. Jesse Helms.
Eason, a 29-year veteran of the state Department of Agriculture, instructed his staff at a small Raleigh lab not to fly the U.S. or North Carolina flags at half-staff Monday, as called for in a directive to all state agencies by Gov. Mike Easley.
When a superior ordered the lab to follow the directive, Eason decided to retire rather than pay tribute to Helms. After several hours’ delay, one of Eason’s employees hung the flags at half-staff. ~newsobserver.com
Naked liberal prejudice and hate.
This tells you how much liberals overvalue their own personal political opinions. Normally you wouldn’t fail to honor the death of those you merely politically disagreed with.
