Funny for a while all the Obama haters out there screamed about how un- patriotic Obama is for not wearing a flag pin on his lapel during the campaign.
Interesting though they are very silent now about that....hmmmm I wonder why? Could it be:



What do you know...no flag pin. Well I am in no way going to question McCains patriotism. I think he has proven that...but I do question the stupid childish games this election is showing.Funny little neocons

Maybe he is doing it as a symbolic way to distance himself further from Bush & Cheney.

Your thread kind of goes hand in hand with my thread from last October:
Barack, Don't Forget Your Nazi Party Pin...

Not two sides of the same coin, but both parts of a larger discussion.

Obama was the one that brought attention to it, saying it was his way of being patriotic. Thats when people started calling him on it.

Anyway, McCain has done more than enough to prove his patriotism. No flag needed. He probably just forgot it, or maybe it fell off?

I agree that he as more than proven his patriotism...just pointing out to all those that started calling Obama on the pin thing that the whole thing was stupid to begin with....it is just hypocritical. I hate all of this stuff on both sides we see.....The thing that made me really roll my eyes were all of the fake fainters during the beginning of the campaign on both sides.....it has become a circus.

Uh, it wasn't the pledge of allegiance. It was the star spangled banner. So, that just tells me it was passed onto you, and you are spinning it as truth.
