Capture the Flag? Politically Speaking

The Naval Delta or
Letter "D" Flag


On the Philly weekend edition of the METRO Sept 17-19, 2010, an opinion by Tom Foreman, a political voice of CNN, wrote an article called, "Capture the Party Flag." Using a metaphor from a classic military game, Foreman essentially said that the Tea Party hi-jacked the invisible 'Change Flag' from Obama.

According to Foreman the Tea Party is waving the 'Change Flag.' Thus any political group out of power will naturally wave the "Change-Delta" flag to unseat the power that is. I suppose the Delta flag is essentially a subversive flag?

Sometimes change is good, sometimes change is bad. No matter what when political power changes, it will immediately be good for some and bad for others. But in my opinion, everything always changes, for the better in the long run, "from a certain point of view," as Obiwan once said.

Contrary to using the Iconic Greek Letter of Change "Delta"
Delta is not necessarily an advocate of Change

US-Okinawa Flag 1952-1972

One more thing.... a military guidon version of the delta flag was used by the Occupational Authority of Okinawa. After WWII Okinawa remained under US control for 20 more years from 1952-1972. It seemed that Okinawa was going to remain a part of the US. They even switched which side cars were to drive on, the dominant right side. Change was certainly in the air in both Japan and the US during the US-Okinawa Delta Flag period.
