'Meet the Press' Interview with Senator Obama, when he was asked
about his stance on the American Flag and National Anthem.
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 played.
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 with the
right hand over the heart. At the very least, 'Stand and Face It'
Obama 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 Brethren.
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 a nd 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 wife and I look
forward to bec oming our Country's First Family. Indeed, CHANGE is
about to overwhelm the United States of America .
I, for one, am speechless.

FROM ONE OF THE MANY RESPONSES
The reality is that no matter what we do and what we say and how much
facts we pour on these dens headed, frozen and warped minded morons,
it would bounce back and nothing registers. They are facinated by his
empty hollow talks and despite his stance on flag burning, that they
perhaps enjoy it, the low lifes still want this teflon candidate! As
we all know, if he wins is based on three things:
Race Card+Massive Arabs money+ Massive Voter fraud!!. then these
morons deserve what they get. Meanwhile we will burn with them! It
seems like we are getting closer to ordering our Tubans, Chadores and
Burkas!!
