Sorry Osama, I mean Obama, maybe you just don't know American flag etiquette:

U.S. Code collectionmain page faq index search

TITLE 36 > Subtitle I > Part A > CHAPTER 3 > § 301Prev | Next § 301. National anthem (a) Designation.— The composition consisting of the words and music known as the Star-Spangled Banner is the national anthem.

"This is so irritating," Obama said when asked about the photo in Muscatine, Iowa.

Grow a spine.

I'm a lot more concerned about Barack Hussein Obama political ideology than his lack of American flag etiquette.

Seems like we are swatting at the gnats rather than breaking out the can of Raid to kill off these socialist cockroaches

So his Grandfather didn’t teach him everything patriotic correctly—what do you expect, he was probably some sort of Arab goat humper...

During the national anthem you sing.

Did he even sing? Hard to tell for sure in the youtube version, but it looks to me like he wasn't singing either. I don't mind him not singing, but I do mind him saying he was if he was not.

From what Ive seen his grandfather didnt teach him much of anything, except how to flounder and pander.

He was giving testimony. You know where you hold your testicles to affirm or swear that your “testimony” is true. Or so Latin class taught me.

He's got a little problem with basic human anatomy, it would seem.

"My grandfather taught me how to say the Pledge of Allegiance when I was 2," Obama said, his annoyance obvious. "During the Pledge of Allegiance you put your hand over your heart. During the national anthem you sing."

Get a thicker skin, Barack, you maroon. You're wrong and you don't even know it.

Interesting. When I was young and in school I was taught the same way as Obama. Hand over the heart for the Pledge but not the National Anthem.

I see from looking in my handy copy of the United States Code Annotated that 36, section 301 a & b were revised in 1976 and 1998.

I wonder if this was what they changed?

Do you have a link to the story? Your links all point to the excellent Cornell University Law page.

The dumb bastard doesn’t know or respect American tradition, this person cannot win this election or even be Vice-Pres. I can hardly see straight.

He would have been better off to have claimed, “I’m so patriotic that the sight of Old Glory stirred my manhood...I covered my chubby for the sake of the children.” Clintonesque fabrication meets AlGore on Rolling Stone cover imagery.
