I'm going to be sick.
Honestly, NPR and its reporters hate America.
That person is an idiot, that person is a leftwing propagandist not a journalist
“That person is an idiot, that person is a leftwing propagandist not a journalist”
That person is an a-hole!
From Wikipedia:
On February 27, 2004, Shapiro and longtime boyfriend Michael Gottlieb were married at San Francisco City Hall.
Wish these America haters would just move to Russia and leave us alone.
Pray for America
They’re discussing it as if they were actually nonpartisan. :)
At the political and tea party meetings I go to, we pledge allegiance to the US flag, then the Texas flag; then we have a prayer.
Since we are paying her salary, she could pledge allegiance to her employer.
When I was in High School, I found it a privilege to stand and cover my heart. I felt I was honoring my Dad, my uncles, and all other veterans who had defended America. When I was in Boot Camp, the flag was placed at half mast due to the Embassy bombing in Beirut, and I thought, “here we go.” and I mourned the killing of other American servicemen that were just like me. When I was over in Europe, and I saw the American flag, I really got a sense of the power and freedom it stands for, even in a free Europe.
I guess what I'm saying is 1) you can't force people to respect the flag/anthem if they really don't feel it themselves, and 2) maybe it takes the realization that America is something special and the flag/anthem is something special and unique that some people just have no life experience to realize that. Or I suppose, they could just hate America and showing respect irks them to no end.
Ultimately, I'm glad idiots like this out themselves.
You nailed it!
FYI:
He freaking works for NPR! He’s not some “independent” guy from another country. He should stand for the pledge that supports the flag of the country that pays his salary!
I pledge allegiance, to the nothingness and everything for which we stand, and to the socialist mob for which we stand, many tribes, under no particular god, with dwindling liberty and crony justice for all.

Fags like this clown should be paid with Monopoly money. I can’t stand the thought of these asshats walking around with “United States Of America” and “In God We Trust” in their pockets.
If the Republicans win, NPR needs to be defunded immediately. The organization is riddled with scum like this. Let them get their money from the Taliban.
When I worked in the media, this came up a couple times a year ‘in-house.’
While there is a ‘PURELY” philosophical arguement to be made about impartial observers and all that, the bottom line is this. To entertain the idealism of impartiality, one must by definition place themselves ‘above’ the issue in question.
And that is where the egotistical Bs of the average reporter comes from.
Secondly, the mere thought that a group of liberals who redefine partisan politics daily being ‘impartial’ about anything is so beyond absurd that it is but to laugh.
men marrying men is just so unnatural and sicko...
and the same for women with woman..
they are all AMERICA HATERS...
