Obama says he won’t wear a flag pin because he’s like too good for it or something. Disdain for patriotism certainly isn’t going to hurt you in a Democratic primary, but this still worries me. I just noticed something about his name: Barack Hussein Obama. Not very American sounding, is it? Come to think of it, do we even have proof he is an American? I know one place you won’t find that proof: his lapel.

B. Hussein Obama needed the room on his lapel for his big, shiny “U.N.” pin.
The secretary-general of the UN made him take it off. He said it hurt too much when Obama tried to put his head up his ass
So he removes his US Flag pin yesterday, gives us a few days to relax, get used to it, and then walks into the next debate wearing a kifaya.
That’ll be nice.
i found osama bin-laden.
he’s been hiding out in chicago all along
his alias: Barack Hussein Obama
The thing is, I understand in theory what he is talking about — patriotism is about more than putting a flag pin on. But as one of Senator’s Obama’s constiuents, it does not surprise me. He is very much the yuppie liberal. And that is what turns me off.
Note — though I guess I am still a yuppie (I just turned 40) I come from a different background than most of my neighbors (most of whom LOVE Obama).
You know, I could care less if he wears a lapel pin or not, his pin wearing choices are not what bother me about him, it’s his lack of experiecne and the constant mumbling from his foot being in his mouth that bothers me.
Heres a quick prediction for ya: 2008 will be a Clinton/Obama ticket for the democrats.
[What bothers me is when not wearing a pin becomes a statement. -Ed.]
Shillery will only have two choices for running mate. Osama–er, I mean, OBAMA (sorry, small typo), or the Silky Pony. She’ll have a better chance of winning with the Muslim than she will with the fa–, er, I mean, the pansy.
It doesn’t really bother me all that much that he doesn’t wear a flag pin. For him TO wear one would bother me a great deal more, as he constantly tries to undermine the nation.
The man is just dangerous. And, if by some gigantic nightmare, Shillary wins the POTUS election, AND he’s her VP, we’ll see him running for POTUS a few years later. And by then, no one will be able to say he doesn’t have the experience…
Hillary will run with James Webb.
Actually, if it takes a lot more than wearing a pin (only a libtard would think it doesn’t), wearing the pin would be such a tiny and insignificant tanginble thing you wouldn’t think it’s a problem. It’s just to appease his anti-American base. It is also, if you read his words, a slap at everyone who wears their patriotism on their sleeve. An idirect Phony Patriot slam, if you will. It should piss you off, as Frank said, because not wearing it is his statement; not a fashion choice.
I think he doesn’t want to wear it because, to liberal “men”, those lapel pins can be so darn heavy! Plus they’re pointy on the back & can give them big ouchies, the poor dears.
I only had to hear what the minister of his church preaches (while Obama continues to attend and not denounce) to know this guy is no one I want holding the highest office in the USA.
The democratic ticket will be: Clinton and Clinton
Is it too late for GOP luminary, Larry (I’m assuming a new stance) Craig, to throw his hat in the ring? I mean, it’s time the GOP fielded a candidate who fights for his convictions – or is it BECAUSE of his convictions? Whatever!
Hillary will run with James Webb.
Clinton/Webb?
As in..
Webb of Deceit?
Webb of Lies?
Webb of Destruction?
It does seem to fit, yes?
A libtards failure to have pride for their country is a clear sign they could never serve it.
Patriotism is the highest form of dissent.
Uppity Negro!
I predict that Hillary needs to “nail” down the lesbian vote and will therefore choose a rather large, butch Janet Reno type as her VP running “mate”…
