Apart from the muslim thing, the video raised a lot of valid points.. such as... Jeremiah Wright, che Guevara's flag, his refusing to wear an American flag, not holding his hand over his heart while the national anthem was being sung... etc.. (Even if he feels he has legitimate reasons for it, the national anthem thing, and the flag pin thing show an astounding lack of judgment, since he must know full well that many Americans would find his behavior on this to be offensive)


These are legitimate issues that deserve consideration. Not to mention his association with former domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, legitimate questions about his true feelings regarding Israel, and other issues I'll not get into right now. The fact is, this guy has more baggage than a 747. Its just a question of how of this is going to become widely known, and how much the media will sweep under the rug.
Did Obama say with his own mouth that he refuses to wear a flag pin? And did Obama say with his own mouth that he refuses to salute the flag? See a polemic can make anyone look bad if done the right way. They took an isolated event where the camera supposedly catches him not covering his heart...does he do that all the time? Did he forget? I don't know.

The truth is that right after 9/11 I had a pin," Obama said. "Shortly after 9/11, particularly because as we're talking about the Iraq war, that became a substitute for I think true patriotism, which is speaking out on issues that are of importance to our national security.
"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."
On Thursday, his campaign issued a statement: "We all revere the flag, but Senator Obama believes that being a patriot is about more than a symbol. It's about fighting for our veterans when they get home and speaking honestly with the American people about this disastrous war."
