How the fuck does hitting it turn it into rotation?
Honestly, it looks like you just need to find a better flathead and then give'er. That's barely stripped at all.
If you have an impact driver, chuck up a flathead bit and bear down on it to prevent the bit from jumping out and stripping.
Something like this is the nuclear option. It's a hand impact, you strike it downwards with a hammer and that applies a twisting motion. Works great because of the combination of impact and that the same strike is driving the bit down to make sure it doesn't strip out.

I don't know how the rotors are attached to the bearing/hubs in your car, but if they happen to be held in with screws like my car (Honda Fit), get yourself one of these. It'll rotate and push the screw at the same time, limiting the chances of stripping the screw. As for the actual replacement, look up Youtube videos specifically about your car, and pay attention to what the dude says. Try to get atleast two supports when your car is jacked up, as a safety measure. When you've installed your new brakes, look up how to break in your brakes. Oh and one more thing, make sure to mount your brake pads on the right side :)
But most importantly, enjoy it!
Tekton makes a set for about $15, the are worth every penny.

You could always pick up a hand impact driver like this.
Also you could try trying to turn both directions. Sometimes all you need to do is get it moving.
Also you could use a propane torch to heat the bolt, and give it a few heat cycles.
You're garage!
Seriously, this is one of the of the higher value maintenance tasks most people can do at home. It can easily save you $200 and much more if you're also changing rotors. Just use the jack from the car if you don't have a floor jack. The only thing you might need that most people don't have are jack stands (safety first). You might also need some grease for the pins and the back of the pads, but otherwise it's pretty simple tools. You might also need an impact driver if you need to replace the rotors as well (I'm not sure if Yukon rotors are bolted on at OEM). Like this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000NPUJYE
