Obama and the Pledge

I received and e-mail today with the following picture and tag line:
Senator Barack Obama, Governor Bill Richardson, Senator Hillary Clinton and Ruth Harkin stand during the national anthem.


Barack Hussein Obama's photo (that's his real name)......the article said he REFUSED TO NOT ONLY PUT HIS HAND ON HIS HEART DURING THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE, BUT REFUSED TO SAY THE PLEDGE.....how can a man like this expect to be our next Commander-in-Chief ?? Better yet, how can any true American support him?
So I did some checking... According to this article at About.com this is not a photoshopped picture but they do go on to say that he does do it at other times. Also that article links to Media Matters (John Podesta's group) which goes off on when Hannity and Colmes talk about this. All that being said, and if he did or did not say The Pledge, the picture speaks volumes for someone who is in the running to be the next President, doesn't it?

What can be said of Obama except that I suppose he is consistent, he won't wear an American flg pin either. I just wonder why someone who has so little regard for national pride desires to lead that nation.

Great post Ordinary.

And Beth, an insightful comment. Why does Obama want to be President? There is an agenda at work somewhere in there and anyone backing Obama better do their research before filling out that hanging chad - I mean ballot.
