Barak Obama: "I pledge allegiance" ... not?

Barak Obama ... no respect for America's symbols?

(SWAC Girl, 10/23/07)

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

Barak Obama ... no respect for America's symbols?

Democrat Presidential candiate Barak Obama stopped wearing an American flag pin on his lapel weeks ago ... and yesterday, as all the other candidates stood at an event and placed their hands over their hearts for the national anthem, Barak stood with hands clasped -- no hand over heart. If someone is going to be the leader of the United States, there are certain things I expect them to do especially showing respect to the American flag, a symbol that members of our armed forces fight and die for, and that many of us fly on a daily basis to show our love for this great country. We are at war ... we have young men currently fighting under that flag. Why would anyone want a President who has no respect for America's symbols?
