So how can Obama overcome the faux lapal pin distortions?

He is absolutely right, but the media is distorting this so badly. Very similar to the swift boating of Kerry

The more I see, the more disappointed I am in the American public for their stupidity. After 7 years of war, reckless spending, and errosion of standard of living, how much more stupidity is the public going to exhibit. I thought they had learned their lesson in 2006

1. Put on a gigantic flag pin. n/t

2. I have no faith in the people

the people in this country are fucking pathetic morons. This will never go away now.

4. This pseudo litmus test about what is patriotism is why we are in an illegal/immoral war

[monmouth]

3. He should totally ignore them and if questioned, should just say

the media should focus on important issues and discredit them for the juveniles they really are..

6. That is what Kerry did, and I don't think that will work. Perhaps combining what you said

with insuring that he doesn't forget to wear the pin will let it fade. I doubt fox will let it go know, and other pseudo news stations use faux as a lead

I hope people use critical thinking this time

5. Wear an American Flag as a cape???

It works for professional wrestlers.

7. Unfortunately, if he does that ...

... it may become the new standard by which we measure patriotism. ;(
