General Bill Gann' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.
Yes, he told us in advance what he planned to do. Few were listening. I was, were you??


The following is a narrative taken from a 2008 Sunday morning televised "Meet The Press'.

From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, Televised "Meet the Press" the THEN Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.

General Bill Gann' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.

The General stated to Obama 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. Or, at the very least, "Stand and Face It".

NOW GET THIS !!'Senator Obama replied:
"As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides". "There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression.." "The anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing."

(ARE YOU READY FOR THIS???)
Obama continued: "The National Anthem 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. In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National Anthem as well as '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, conduct ourselves like the nations of Islam, where peace prevails - - - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist between our governments ......."

This is exactly why our forefathers made the phrase "natural born citizen" as a separate definition of "citizen". Some wanted their team to win so bad they didn't care, the other side was too afraid to offend, only the fringe questioned. The post was the exact reason a President is to be vetted.

Is that quote really right? And McCain didn't use the numerous soundbites from it in his campaign?

I know McCain was McLame and things were very weird during that election, but still ... I'd like some proof that Obama actually said that for the record, or even he was caught saying it off the record.

when subversives gain power, they destroy all those that may eventually go against them, so, the ruling minority has to ignore all law that applies against them and destroy the lives and potential of the majority, and if you notice, that's what was done, and now the minority owns the majority and will not give up the throne, as when in the minority the demand inclusion and when claiming the majority, they tell the majority to stfu and go away.

There is no intent to be fair, there is every intent to win totally by any means necessary, and you, if there is ANY potential of you demanding fairness, or even access, must be destroyed, literally and figuratively

To live is to believe in the power of dreams! To dream is to believe in the power of love! To love is to Know the truth!
The Desire to Be fuel the belief that you Are which ignite the Will to Become which bring back forth the desire to be...
Let it be-come you! It means Stop seeking your higher self! It is seeking you! Stand still in your mind to calm the waters of your mind and then it shall find you, so you can ride those waves together!
your true self lies somewhere between your heart and your consciousness. It is called the heart consciousness,which is the creator, which is you!
The heart create the emotions and our mind evoke its purpose, from which we dream the life we live in order to imagine the nature of reality and finally remember love!

The highest Purpose of our mind is the ability to Forget! Go on and Forgive yourself!
There is no love in truth but there is truth in love!

Unpin this nonsense.

[link to www.washingtonpost.com]

As for the hoax, about 10 days ago, e-mails began appearing asking if "Dale Lindsborg" was a columnist at The Post. The answer is no. A few forwarded his "column," which purported to report and criticize an Obama appearance on "Meet the Press." The bogus report said that Obama disliked the national anthem, had attended flag-burning ceremonies and intended disarmament.

Should The Post have written a story about the hoax? That's dicey. A small item in the Trail political blog would have been appropriate, but that might have given the hoax wider circulation than it already had.
