Obama disrespects national anthem
Just in case anyone was thinking of voting for this jerk, check out the article below (and the video). While everyone else on the platform holds their hand over their heart during the national anthem, Barack Hussein Obama refuses to do so. Apparently he thinks as much of our national anthem as he does of our flag, which he refuses to wear on his lapel . . .

Re: Obama disrespects national anthem
Honest to god, who really cares? Honestly, how many of us actually do this?
If the best you can come up with is this, then you're grasping at straws big time.

Re: Obama disrespects national anthem
btw, that rendition is much more disrespectful to the flag than what Obama did. And if you look at the crowd, how many of them did it?

If you look at the other officials and dignitaries on the platform, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM is holding their hand over their heart. I couldn't care less what the riff-raff is doing--but I do care what a guy running for president is doing. Anybody who wants to be president but cares so little about our national anthem has no business holding the office.
But then maybe Obama shouldn't be blamed. After all, he did attend a Muslim school when he was a kid and they probably didn't teach him about the importance of the U.S. flag or the national anthem. Whadda ya think?

Re: Obama disrespects national anthem
Clearly, we need to send the flag guy after him.

Re: Obama disrespects national anthem
Well if it's any consolation to you conservatives, he does appear to be quietly signing the words to the song. Come on now, be serious. Out of all the things to attack a potential presidential candidate on you go with this? Let's play a game of "How low can you go?" shall we?

It's just the faux outrage of the day. There will be millions more where this came from. Anything to distract us from talking about anything of substance.

Only a liberal would say that disrespecting the national anthem is a matter of no "substance."

Liberals have been raving about how intelligent Obama is, and yet the guy isn't even smart enough to put his hand over his heart and avoid a potentially controversial debate about his patriotism. Now that's brilliant!!

Maybe it is. Maybe he's hoping you guys will swift-boat him on patriotism. Maybe it's a trap he's setting for you and your ilk.

Now THAT would be brilliant. Commit some stupid faux paux that riles up average Americans everywhere and then have the entire thing played over and over again on national TV, further reminding everyone that you were educated in Muslim schools and your middle name is Hussein and you refuse to wear the American flag on your lapel . . .
Uh, huh. Like I said, "brilliant."
