Okay, this is definitely a Skunk Works theory...

There has been recent 'news' about Barack Obama not wearing the little flag pin on his lapel anymore, because to him it represents a 'false patriotism'. At first I thought it was just a political news story about nothing really important.

But now I am not so sure. I cannot really figure out how the idea popped into my head, but I think what Obama is talking about is maybe even darker than we know.

Here is a link to a goole image search regarding Nazi Party Pins. These pins were worn in the same location, and in the same 'patriotic' manner that the American Flag Pins are worn today. The FLag as a Symbol, is Bush's swastika.

Here is movie review from 1997, of the the film Schindler's List
In simple terms this critically-lauded film is the story of Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson) and his battle to save a few Jews from Auschwitz. A contrasting viewpoint is that we are presented the eternal battle between good and evil in the broadest possible way -- focusing on the practical genocide of the Polish Jews by the Third Reich. The reality is that Schindler's List manages to combine these themes brilliantly, with several others, while never losing track of the story or descending into sentimentality. Schindler is a German who came to Krakow with nothing but his charm and plans to leave with trunks full of money; his morals and allegiances are dictated purely by this desire. To this end, Schindler insinuates himself into parties and smoothly talks business with the Army officers taking some leave (wearing his Nazi Party pin, of course). In contrast, the Jewish population of Poland is being forced into the major cities such as Krakow.

Notice how it mentions how Schlindler talks business with Nazi's while wearing his Party Pin. From my memory of that film, Schlindler was one of the Germans who was nazi because everyone was nazi, and wore is pin only to do business.

I don't know, I don't have more evidence yet. But even on this level, I think that there is something there. Today, while flipping channels, the NFL pregame shows were on Fox and CBS. On CBS, all the of the commentators, Dan Marino, Shannon Sharpe, and who ever else it was were all wearing American Flag Pins on their left Lapels. On Fox, no pins. Why are they wearing the pins on CBS, but not FOX? I don't know, maybe because CBS, the network with the all seeing eye as a logo, once had granddad Prescott Bush on its board of directors, years after he was a director of a bank seized for trading with Nazis... Grandaddy Prescott seems like he was a bad man...
Link to threads here at ATS with Prescott Bush CBS as the search term.

Perhaps someone could get screenshots of todays NFL shows to compare?

I dunno, the whole 'pledge allegance to the flag' ideal makes me feel a bit ill right now. I love America, but I don't like being coerced in to Nazism, and I think that being a patriot is okay, but confusing patriotism with jingoism is very bad.

Barack Obama was saying something more than "I stopped wearing the flag pin" when said that he stopped weaing the pin...

I quit flying my flag after we invaded Iraq. I will not fly it again until January 20, 2009. I don't think you have to wear a piece of jewelry to prove that you love your country.

Obama loves his country just as much as I do and as much as I assume speakeroftruth does.

Speakeroftruth, Hillary Clinton is not a socialist. She is not popular with the left because she is a corporatist and a hawk, she is no liberal, much less a socialist. Barak Obama is not a liberal, either.

As far as socialism goes, this country has moved so far to the right that free public education is now considered communist. It's time we moved back to the center.

Errrr

So your saying it was an evil act for Nazi party members to wear their pin? .. I don't get it.. I know the Germans killed Jews, Catholics, yada yada, but what does this have to do with pins? .. Party loyalty is a rational act for anyone, even if they did loose the war.

So because American law makers wear American pins we must be just like the Nazis?

Flawed logic.

Um, no...

I wasn't saying that the act of wearing a flag pin was evil
(insert any other straw man argument you want...)

What I am saying is "Perhaps Barack Obama is bringing attention to himself for the act of taking off the pin for reasons other than just to bring attention to himself. That the use of the pins is akin to the Nazi Party members wearing their party pins blindly with the evil around them, that much of what is masquerading as Patriotism in the United States today is actually Jingoism"

I then make a pop culture reference to the Movie Schindler's List, where a Nazi Supporter uses his pin to 'do business' in order to save Jews. Maybe I do this to gain sympathy for the meme "Barack, Don't Forget Your Nazi Party Pin... "

Then I pander to the 'conspiracy nuts' with an eyewitness (no pun intended) account on Sunday Oct 7, 2007 where the CBS (Amero-Nazi aligned to some) network sports puppets were wearing flag pins, and the Aussie Owned, NWO FOX sports puppets were not.

Any other questions? Perhaps you were reacting to the sensationalism of the thread title. Perhaps if you recommend a better one, a mod could change it.

I was commenting on the observations I made that the propaganda use of flag pins is akin to the propaganda use of Nazi party pins.

Well I don't know about the Nazi's pins and Obama, but I had seen some head lines about it a few days ago.


Barack Obama Stops Wearing American Flag Lapel Pin

Snip~~

"I decided I won't wear that pin on my chest," he said in the interview. "Instead, I'm going to try to tell the American people what I believe will make this country great, and hopefully that will be a testament to my patriotism."
