Barack Hussein Obama's photo (that's his real name)......the article
said he REFUSED TO NOT ONLY PUT HIS HAND ON HIS HEART DURING THE
PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE, BUT REFUSED TO SAY THE PLEDGE.....how in the
h*** can a man like this expect to be our next Commander-in-Chief????"
The above article was sent to me along with a picture showing Obama
with his hands at his side while all the others honored the flag with
their hand over their heart.Can anybody justify his behavior as
described above?
I was unaware that holding your hand over your heart while reciting
the pledge was a litmus test for loving our country. Don't get me
wrong...it was a dumb thing to do, only because it gets the simpletons
all in an uproar. But does anyone with an ounce of intelligence think
this really means anything?
A love of this country and its institutions is a good thing though. If
this is true, it probably doesn't bode well for him. Pledging
allegiance to ones country isn't really something a presidential
candidate should balk at.


Loving this country is essential. Either refusing to say the Pledge
of Alligiance or refusing to put his hand over his heart is
politically stupid, but really means nothing in reality.


I think it shows that I wouldn't want him to be my president. He is going to Commander in Chief of our armed forces and refuses to say the pledge? I'm going to question why and he would need to answer to be viable I think.
