    A couple thoughts:

    1) It was the national anthem, not the pledge of allegiance there fool.

    2) With that singing, I would have probably put my hands over my ears instead of my heart.

    3) I can't remember the last time I put my hand over my heart when standing for the national anthem. You act like he was sitting down talking to someone what it was being sung.

    And here he is leading the pledge of allegiance in the Senate (with his hand over his heart):

    We get it Spin, you don't like the guy and wouldn't vote for him if he was the only candidate running. At least act like an adult and bring up current events or relevant things.

    Haha you are a funny one. You can't be serious :) Have you checked out his posting history? I consider myself fairly open minded and i'll pretty much listen to whatever anyone has to say, even if i don't agree with them. I've tried so hard to see things from his point of view, and no matter how hard i try, I can't seem to get my head that far up his ass.

    I've come to the conclussion that you have a massive man crush on Senator Obama. He is all that fills your thoughts and words, and now that you know you can't have him...you're taking your anger out in the forms of slander. Not cool. I'd like to boink Scarlett Johannson, but you don't see me making endless threads about her in the "Horse Whisperer" do you?

    thats a good thing.
  • Anyone who can ever be described as one who "refuses the pledge of allegance" is, in a small way, my personal hero.

    Spinbrett, where is your thread about Obama not wearing a flag pin? You know, the symbol that is so sacred that isn't supposed to touch the ground, be used on t-shirts, or anything along those lines.

    Who the fuck was singing? OMG! How could you not laugh at her?
    What a tool.

    Sorry Obama lovers, he looks like a jack ass, running for president and not holding his hand on his chest.
    You freaking learn that in kindergarden for christ sake!



    He does not have a prayer to win. Not a prayer

    Of all the reasons not to like Obama, I don't understand how this would be anyone's deal breaker.
    If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.

    refused?? it looks like he didn't do it

    refusing would mean he was asked and said no

    if you continue to post nonsense, at least use proper grammar

    :rolleyes:

    Thanks. That made me chuckle. I almost peed myself, actually.

    Call me wrong, but I've always thought the proper way to salute was to stand at attention for the national anthem, and put your hand over your heart (as if you are pledging something, afterall) for the Pledge.

    yeah i've seen it done both ways. some of the older crowd will put their hands of their heart, i think most people just stand at attention though.

    I refuse to too!

    wtf, pledging allegiance to a FLAG??? Sorry that's not how I roll.
  • It's like talking points on here sometimes.

    My 4th grade teacher was a pacifist, She didnt put her hand over her heart either.

    It's laughable what people will dig up to make a big deal.

    but this isnt some kindergarten teacher, this is someone that wants to be president. Obama also refuses to wear the USA flag pin. Why want to run a country you dont even like?

    Hehe...so in other words the founding fathers should have worn union jack pins? And, as I assume that you're not wearing a USA flag pin right now, does that mean you don't like this country?

    Your logic here is ridiculous.
