A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words, Who Shows Respect for Our National Anthem?

Photobucket Photobucket

 

United States Code, 36 USC Sec. 301, states that during the playing of "The Star Spangled Banner" (United States National Anthem) when the flag is displayed, everyone except those in uniform should stand at attention while facing the flag with their right hand over their heart.

If the flag is not displayed, people in attendance should face the music and respond as if the flag were present

I don't think the great Obam, ever read that part(s)?
My honest thoughts on that man, is he is part of the typical liberal, hate American first crowd; always dissing the country; finding all wrong. Not pride, no love. He went to the Rev. Wrights church because he's a believer in that evil ideology.

He will not win.

I THINK PALIN IS TERRIFIC!! :))

Very sad.
I wish that people would at least attempt to fein education before they begin spreading the same old messy lies around the internet. To still be trying to push the "he wont salute the flag" line after all this time, I have to wonder what you have been doing for the past year? I mean seriously... This is an old smear and it has been thoroughly discussed.

Sad.
Sad.
Sad.


Maybe you can try calling him names or something. You guys love that. Make up some more wacky insults about him mom or something.

Sheesh.

This link discusses all of this stuff:

Gee CY, on Snopes it says it's TRUE.

He doesn't respect this country enough to place his hand over his heart during our National Anthem.

No, he didn't break any laws, but if he wants to run this country shouldn't he be the epitome of respect for it?

Cy,

Snopes affirms the photo and event and even ABC news reports his non-salute gesture.

It's never bad form to reinforce the lack of respect for ones Flag and Nation.

No need to makeup things about Obama, his missteps are documented on tape, video, photo or in his book for the most part.

Read it all. What's your point? He didn't put his hand over his heart. I ALWAYS do that. It isn't hard and if you want to represent me as my President, I expect you respect the flag and the country you propose to lead.

Any questions?

No questions.

I am glad to know that you hold your candidate to such a high standard. Surely John McCain has never done anything... or not done something... that might cast doubt on his convictions.

I mean... if he had... we all would know about it right?

...and we would surely all condemn him for his poor judgment.


heh

Careful how high a bar you set man.
Your guy may not pass his own test.

I believe that McCain has great respect for the flag and his country.

I have NO doubt of that. I do doubt some of old Mac's policies though.

Disagree with his stance (so far) on illegal immigration and on the fairness doctrine and some of the other legislative things he's been involved with.

However, I do not doubt that he loves this country and what it stands for. I have serious doubts about the O-man's love for this country.

I just can't picture Obama putting his life on the line for his country.

O-man didn't get that message.

Somebody needs to tell Palin the heart is on the other side.

Obama went on TV yesterday in a pathetic attempt to win the arguement that he has more experience than Gov. Palin.

He attempted to compare his "oversight" of his campaign to Gov. Palin's terms as Mayor.

How pathetic this fool is.

He stated that his campaign has a 21 million dollar budget a month and over 2500 employees and that Mayor Palin had a 1 million dollar a month budget with only 50 employees.

He must think the American people are morons.

When you compare Obama's "experience" to Gov. Palin you find that she managed a 1.025 Billion dollar annual budget and has over 77,000 employees as Alaska's Governor. That is Billion with a "B" folks.

Obama is nothing but a self serving liar and a complete moron.
