Obama Explains National Anthem Stance

Sun, 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST

General Bill Ginn USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain why he doesn't
follow protocol when the National Anthem is
The General also stated to the Senator that according to the United
States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171... During rendition of the
national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those
in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag wi th
the right hand over the heart. At the very least, "Stand and Face It."

Senator Obama, live on Sunday, states, "As I've said about the flag
pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides," Obama said.
"There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression.
And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs
bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less
parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing.'
If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.

"We should consider to reinvent our National Anthem as well as to
redesign our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my
intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to
our Middle East Bret hren.& nbsp; If we as a Nation of warring people,
should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace
prevails. Perhaps a state or period of mutual concord between our
governments. When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement
to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of
enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a
Nation have placed upon the nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the flag for many personal reasons.
Together, she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in
the past, many years ago. She has her views and I have mine".

"Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of
the United States and I have put aside my hatred. I will use my power
to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path of
hope. ; My w ife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First
Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America."

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you heard it right. This could possibly be
our next President.

Thats part of the problem Eric,there's a lot more to Illinois than Chicago

From what I've observed Sen Obama has distain for American patriotism. Can anybody explain away the way he posies while the National Anthem is played. I could go on but let's tackle one issue at a time.

1) President Bush had NOTHING to do with.

2) Absolutely and he's a VETERAN. I'm sure your going to dig up a picture of him picking his nose now. Don't be fooled buy a picture when you need to see the whole movie.

3&4) Of course there are thing's I'm not happy with but if it's Bush or Obama ,myself
I'll take Bush ANYTIME. He's a vet and knows the sacrifice.I'm a Viet Nam Vet. What is Obama going to do WHEN not if Iran comes on line with a nuke ?

I'd vote for Bush in a heartbeat over Obama.

Given the sorry state of this country right now, I wouldn't support Bush over anyone.

This is another one that's been totally debunked.

It's the same old BS rehashed. Writing about a phoney story again doesn't make it any less phoney, just a new version of it.
