What’s Next, Flying American Flags at Half-Mast on Hitler’s Birthday? Obama Can’t Imagine Why Americans Would Believe He was Born in Africa, but Then Orders Flags at All U.S. Federal Buildings and Installations Worldwide to Fly at Half-Mast for Five Days, in Honor of an African Monster

Was Nelson Mandela secretly an American citizen? But even if he had been, there would have been no good reason for bestowing this honor on him.

President Barack Obama on Thursday ordered flags to fly at half-staff at the White House and public buildings, with the US in mourning over the death of anti-apartheid hero Nelson Mandela.

Obama's proclamation, which also extended to US foreign missions, military posts, naval stations and military vessels, was valid through sunset on Monday.

Look for a push to rename streets all over the US after him. Those streets will probably end up being places people wouldn't want to find themselves after dark, just like the current crop of MLK boulevards.

Already done. Mandela Parkway in Oakland is exactly as you might expect.
