Obama refuses to pledge his allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands. You don't have to wear the lapel pin, but fricken say the pledge.

Actually, this was not the Pledge. The National Anthem was playing. Why he didn't but his hand on his heart I don't know. Bad move. Sometimes he does, sometimes he does not. You can find the video on the web.

Please show some link or some varifiable evidence that Senator Obama refuses to say the pledge. He doesn't wear the silly pin for a couple of reasons. First Giuliani was the only other one doing it. None of the other candidates do or have. Second he believes patriotism is in one's heart not on one's lapel. Without a link from a reliable source one can but figure it is the right wingnut personal attack BS again.

Does it shock you? He refused (YES REFUSED) to position his quit his center throughout the countrywide anthem and he REFUSED (yep as soon as once more definitely refused) to put on the flag pin. Said it had whatever to do with Ayers. No that is now not propaganda, that is his specific rationalization. Ayers might stomp on his chest if he wore the flag pin. Good factor Clinton and McCain are not that scared of terrorists like Ayers. They each and every wore their pin and so they each and every placed their quit their center throughout the pledge of allegiance and the countrywide anthem.

He does NOT refuse to pledge his allegiance. That is a rediculous neocon assertion.
People don't need to wave flags to be patriotic. And most people don't walk around wearing flag lapel pins either.

Who said he refuses? I know they got him on tape not putting his hand over his heart and he won't wear a pin, but that does not correlate to refusing the pledge of allegiance. You will need to show me some proof please. I don't like the guy, but lets not stoop to liberal idiocy to slam him.

You can't trust a party which spreads false rumors, that is for sure.
This is a false rumor. I guess your party can't start one about Obama having a black child, lol, so you've decided he's un-American because he was born in Hawaii.
Obama was a constitutional law professor. He supports the USA and understands the basis for our government better than any Republican candidate.

You all sure are trying to get a lot of mileage out of that still photo that proved nothing.
