Anybody seen that photo floating around showing Obama and Michele both with their

left hands on their hearts during a Pledge of Allegiance?

Oh God, please tell me your kidding?!?!?!?! :doh:

I didn't think he could be that dumb. But none the less, look how they are standing, and look how they have their hands. It's like it's painful for them to be doing this. UGH

My bad,....I just went by an E-mail and the photo. By the way ..I don't see any Marines in the picture.

This one is real

O K... Now I see the whole picture. It all makes sense now.

Good job on the scam though. Goes to show me.. don't believe everything you read. Or see.

The pic with him during the National Anthem....I hate to admit it but sometimes I find myself doing that also. The only time I truly show respect is at the Pledge of Allegiance. I think that the National Anthem has been demoralized because of sports. If I am wrong...prove it.

I have never seen anybody really respecting the Anthem or waiting for the song to be over

before the clapping starts and you hear " play ball" before the song is actually over.

That is true, I have been to plenty of games where people are acting like the National anthem is going to kill them.

I'm no fan of Obama, but it truly disgusts me to see the lengths people will go to slander someone in an already difficult position. And it is also a testament to people's intelligence level, and motives (racially charged?), to blindly believe this crap.

 

Additionally, there was propaganda being spread from the Republican camp of how Obama was using his support for the Haitian people as a way to garner popular approval. As the leader of the free world, it is his duty to help those nations less fortunate than ours. What did Bush do when we Americans had our mega-disaster (Katrina)?

Very well put Ben

Not only Politicians. Look at your movie stars and entertainers. They would rather send aid to foreign countries than their own. A few besides Willie Nelson support the US.

Very true, I had this same conversation at work yesterday. These people only care if there is an international photo op for them. We have many poor & starving Americans. But that does not make headline news.

Well said. I'm at the point that I just assume all the nonsense I see online about Obama is fake. At least when people were making fun of Bush, regardless of whether you liked him or not, it was kinda funny. (I'm particularly fond of Bush Vs. Zombies -

).

Obama has many faults and has made some very questionable (if not down right wrong) decisions, but all the photoshopped pictures and fake stories have reached a ridiculous level.
