a fringe benefit of that job is getting laid a lot

But, but..........don’t you need to know what you are doing? Obama would follow any advise given him by Soros and friends and wouldn’t know if they were right or wrong. This guy is the worst for this office at this time.

Please! You must not question the patriotism of this fine, upstanding global citizen!

[tobyhill]

Obama, “please inflate my head like you would your tires and tell the world I'm a Patriot”. “I know I voted against funding the troops and have friends that like to bomb the Pentagon but Patriotism is not my deeds but what I, the Messiah, says”.

[Maelstorm]

The core to patriotism is wanting your country to win the wars it fights. Cowardice is not patriotism.

George W. Bush has bent over backwards to be a ‘uniter” as he promised eight years ago. All he has gotten is ridicule and partisan attacks. His lack of response has been frustrating but he has not been thin skinned. BHO is just the opposite... Given the climate that the Democrats have created if he is elected his term will be the most divisive in history. He can't take the heat and will be totally ineffective if elected.

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama defended his patriotism today

[Martin Tell]

I have recently seen bumper stickers of a big "O" with a peace sign in the middle. I suppose it might work for those too young to remember Vietnam-era traitors and just think the peace sign is a fashion statement.

Of course it also works for commie traitors (probably the target audience).

[tobyhill]

To call one a Patriot when the deeds don't match is a lie, to call one a Patriot when the deeds do match is an honor.

Any vet that believes Obama is crazy or stupid.

Obama hates the military, like the Clintons. They believe China and Russia are “fellow travelers” who will do us no harm.

We know that China and Russia thinks of Obama, the Clintons, Pelosi, etc as “useful idiots.” I pray for the future of my children under Obama and the Dems.

Prediction: something horrible will happen if he is elected. Not to Obama, but to the USA.

Obama talking to veterans is like a jellyfish talking to eagles...

After a cursory glance at the lives of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, I remain convinced that a "community organizer" is the perfect hybrid of sreet thug and scam artist. His personal connections to convicted slumlord Tony Rezko tell me everything I need to know about that dirtbag.

How else could Obama finance a million dollar house if it weren't for dirty money? The black racist has never conducted an honest day of hard work in his entire life.

[calex59]

Well, yeah, all his military service,uuuhh, well maybe not that, all his wearing of the flag pin,uuuuhh, well maybe not that either. Ok, all of his holding his hand over his hear while the national anthem plays, uuuuhhh, wait he didn’t do that either. Hmmmm, I guess his patriotism is a trifle wanting.

RE: "most leftists “love” the USSA that they envision"

I did not search for a source but that's exactly what I've heard audio of Hillary saying. Exactly. Other lefty pukes have similarly qualified their "love" of country.

[WilliamofCarmichael]

What the heck are we suppose to think?

He tells a seven-year-old that he wants to make America what it could be then changed that to what it had been. "The country sucks, kid. I'm gonna fix it."

He tells 200,000 German utes that America has committed all manner of crimes against the world's peoples and environment; but he loves the bitch and wants to make Her a great country.

He seems to be unable to say something nice about America and then shut up.. there's always a but.

As a Citizen of the World, what possible use could Obama have for Patriotism except to garner a few extra votes
from those who want to demonstrate their "tolerance" by voting for a candidate with no discernible accomplishments?

You’re not in such good shape when you have to defend your patriotism to vets over and over and lie about your vote for infanticide to Christians over and over.
