So...... I wonder how many posters on this thread actually have flags? How many have flags that have a pretty little stamp saying "Made in China?" Sometimes I think people are pledging allegiance to the Chinese economy.

Or even proper flag etiquette.

No, flying a dirty, torn, weathered, faded flag isn't "patriotic".

You must be unfamiliar with her work.

Lucky you.

Still won't vote for him, don't agree with his views!!!

Well crap, if that is how we are choosing Presidents then I can't vote for McCain because instead of standing up in Vietnam and refusing to be taken captive, he cowered down and let them capture him and hold him for years as a POW.

See how silly that sounds?

It's awfully easy to fabricate reasons why someone will not be a good President that have nothing to actually do with their ability to do the job. So, instead of doing that, why don't you tell me what views of his specifically you disagree with instead of talking about where he puts his hands when music is playing?

I can't vote for McCain becasue he wasn't born in America. Seriously.

SERIOUSLY? That's your reason? Nothing to do with policy, nothing to do with his voting history...you can't vote for him because his MOTHER didn't deliver him in the United States?

This thread is becoming incredibly irritating

Ooops! I was trying to be sarcastic! Sorry it came across wrong. I respect John McCain for what he went through, and for his service to this country, but I disagree with him too much on certain issues and his personality frightens me. Obama has my vote.

I meant the "seriously" part to people who wouldn't believe he was born in Panama. Not that it matters, really, since the Senate cleared him to run for president even though he wasn't born here.

He was born with his citizenship, just as American as any other American born here in this Country. In a military installation.

Again, I was being sarcastic. I was trying to show that his citizenship is a complete non-issue, just like Obama's flag pins, religion, and place of birth should be non-issues.

I read where you said that but since you brought it up I thought I would post that
