Okay. Thanks for clearing that up. I didn't watch the video and thus didn't know.

I still hold to the point that most of the people that talk shit like that, never end up voting anyway. Voter turnout is always so low in the inner city because (from the people I've talked to, who actually know something about politics) they feel like no matter who gets in office, they'll just end up getting shafted anyway, so they feel like why should they bother?

But I don't want people to think that because one douchebag says some dumb shit that it could possibly represent the way an entire group feels.

Thanks SmootSmack for helping to make my point.

And D, all I said that if Obama had a "vast amount" of supporters who felt that way, not "all". I know that he doesn't have everybody feeling that way that support him.

I'm going to try not to get too emotional here, but this kind of crap just gets my blood boiling. But, Howard felt damn comfortable "thug muging" in front of the camera with his boys, and showing his ass. If he or anybody else feel that strongly about this country, then please do us all a favor and just leave. Just get your unhappy, disrespectful ass out of our country. It is called a visa Howard, and I would even help to pay for it.

All this talk about Obama not wanting to wear a flag pin, and not putting his hand over is heart (or stomach) during the National Anthem should give us all a little pause for concern. He is a freaking U.S. Senator. And this man wants to be our president. Not if I have anything to say about it.

Like I've said in privious threads, this man Obama has questionable people that he associates with, and who support him.

Totally agree. Good post.

Howard is a disgrace the way he went around and made an ass of himself.

About Obama, I just find it odd that this is a senator not following the code.
http://www.stpeteblue.com/Flagcode.htm
"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. Persons in uniform should render the military salute at the first note of the anthem and retain this position until the last note. When the flag is not displayed, those present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed there."

So he's either really stupid, or really ignorant. How can you run for president and do such a thing?
Although his stance on 3rd term abortion is even a stronger reason not to vote for him.

United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10

Note the use of the word "should", and the omission of the word "must".

As to the "3rd term abortion" nonsense, I'm quite certain that Obama's stance doesn't require a 3rd term abortion for those facing such a dilemma -- just that the option should be there, and not a matter for the federal government with which to insert itself (if you'll pardon the expression).
