I don't wear one everywhere I go either. But the difference is I am willing too, are you? Obama is not.

Is that a joke? So I am not a true patriot because sitting here in my sweats I don't have a flag pin stuck to me? Seriously? A true Patriot WILL wear a flag on their clothes at all times? Are you wearing one now?

I don't wear any kind of jewelry, including pins, so that means I am not willing to wear a flag pin either. I also think it's dumb to put my hand over my heart when the national anthem is being sung.

Who made up that rule? I am not willing to wear a flag pin to prove to a bunch of elites that I am as patriotic as they are. That is absurd.
In fact I would say wearing a flag does not prove 1 ounce of patriotism. Anyone can wear a flag. That's like saying holiness standards proves someone is Holy when we all know inside they can be messed up.
I don't judge whether someone is a patriot or not because of a flag pin. What marketing genius came up with that? Whoever it was is making bucks selling flag pins.
It reminds me of the Christians that have to wear a cross just so you know they are true Christians....there are a lot of crips and bloods in LA that wear them too...despite selling drugs, robbing people and killing people.

It's not a requirement and most people that I see at games and such don't do it. It's when reciting the pledge of allegiance that it everyone usually does it...except JWs

Re: Fooled by Barak Hussein Obama
During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform should stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Men not in uniform should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. -- United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171.
http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/h...1----000-.html
TITLE 36 > Subtitle I > Part A > CHAPTER 3 > § 301
Prev | Next
§ 301. National anthem
How Current is This?
(a) Designation.— The composition consisting of the words and music known as the Star-Spangled Banner is the national anthem.
(b) Conduct During Playing.— During a rendition of the national anthem—
(1) when the flag is displayed—
(A) all present except those in uniform should stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart;
(B) men not in uniform should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold the headdress at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart; and
(C) individuals in uniform should give the military salute at the first note of the anthem and maintain that position until the last note; and
(2) when the flag is not displayed, all present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed.

NO, you miss my point. No, I am not wearing one. The difference is I am not ashamed to wear one.
It is not a matter of do I have one, or IF I had one would I be willing to wear it. But a man that is running for the highest office of our land saying he will NOT wear one, gives me great cause for concern. However, they are much more evidence of things I am more or just as concerned about.
To ME he is saying he doesn't believe not support our nation!

Prax I think you are missing our concerns here. Don't judge him by your own actions. You may have a valid reason to not want to wear the flag, but hopefully you don't want to burn the flag. And MY opinion of Obama, I'm not sure he wouldn't be just as happy to burn our flag.

We went from "not wearing a flag pin" to "refuses to wear one" to "being ashamed to wear one"...don't you guys see yet how this works?
There are FAR BETTER reason to NOT vote for a man other than he refuses to wear a flag pin. That is rather petty IMO

I don't think it is petty at all. But I do agree with you on there are definitely other issues that are just as sobering.
