it got people talking about him. He's the patsy to the Clinton campaign. Hillary can't look like a decent leader if she doesn't beat a supposedly worthy opponent. He's the John Kerry in this election, he's being sacrificed for the god Hillary's ambition. That's all

Well I also heard this and came across it once before,the thing that struck me was that he is in the running for president but still feels he doesn't need to SHOW patriotism,but that its okay to speak about it,that to me is just plain odd.He certaintly doesn't have my best intrests in mind if he feels a flag pin will somehow demean him.Sorry it just came across that way to me even after I heard his own speech.

It's a non-issue. I myself ran into members of the "Petey Patriot Platoon" after the attack on America. One lady was wearing a vest festooned with flags and other pins and demanded to know from me where my "red, white and blue was". After I showed her my ID card she shuffled away with her head hung low. Another man came up to me at the car wash, after removing three U.S. flags from his car, and wanted to know where my flag was. I showed him my ID card and asked him if he owned those flags on September 10, 2001. He apologized to me and walked away.
The Senator's majority leader (Harry Reid) always displays a U.S. flag in his lapel. Fifteen years ago, in correspondence with me, he considered military personnel to be "government employees".
If these politicians want to make an impression on me on the topic of supporting the troops, they can make a donation to one of the three military-based charities dealing with the real concerns of those troops.

It is his way of saying he does not believe in the American, but that he has a better plan
