Comments on: Is There A Political Patriotism Gap?

CBS News' Kathy Frankovic: Barack Obama May Have A Patriotism Perception Problem

[beastof70]

If you doubt this gap exists, merely look at how willing so many who call themselves Americas are to support a self admitted 50%-American as President, when all he''s offered them so far is a lot of "SMOKE and MIRRORS," errrrr I mean "HOPE and CHANGE."

[beastof70]

Of course there''s a major patriotism gap.

On one side you have us real American conservatives.

On the Democrat side you have a bunch of hyphenated-Americans libwads willing to admit being some percentage less American than us. And, the willingness to wear the libwad tag indicates their desire to destroy America as built, including all her traditions.

First we have the planned appeasment tour and now we have the pander tour. I understand the empty suit has taken to wearing that nasty lapel flag pin and endorsing faith based programs. What a hypocrite he is.

Obama is a security risk. Half of his family is Moslem and actually live in Africa. No US government agency concerned with security would grant him a security clearance. He simply couldn''t get one. Electing this guy president would be putting the fox in the hen house.

Dear News Leader,

Please have someone start a petition to the Congress to explore petroleum in the U.S. as soon as possible to stop American people''s pocket pain (or have the issue put on the 11-4-08 election ballot). We, the people, need to speak up to the Government people what we want.

Please don''t let the Government politician destroy the U.S. economy in the name of protecting the earth and the environment, stopping and preventing the wildfire happened in America such as California and Florida etc. each year is enough to save the earth; Help America free from Mideast countries%u2019 "Oil harassment" and %u201Cterror harassment%u201D so America can be continuing as a strong world leadership for freedom for generations to come.

Supporting war on terror with American troop in the Midwest, Iraq war is not a stupid war; it is the way to continuing America as a strong world leadership for freedom. Freedom is not free, protecting & maintaining the freedom has prices to pay just like owning a home. Freedom is people get to say they want to say, freedom is not free, freedom is not cheap but it is worth it.

Thank you for prompt attention and action on this matter


Your loyal viewer,

A Small Town Citizen

Aren''t we all, you know, a little brainwashed?

The President of the United States - Merits Respect - Especially from those who work for him. You can agree or not agree with him, but you do not get people to disrespect him as Mr Obama has.

The United States - The Country - The Government, Deems Respect. You do not go around getting people to disrespect it. as Mr Obama has done.

When the Country is at war, you can not agree with the reasons But you still support you country in the cause. You do not get people to not do that, as Mr Obama has done.

He has lead a campaign getting people to disrespect their President, turn against their government and join and anti war campaign. That is not Patriotic.
Not the proper behavior for a United States Senator.

John McCain Campaigns on GI Bill He Opposed


Posted by Isaac Fitzgerald at 12:53 PM on June 30, 2008.

McCain does the flip-flop shuffle.


Sen. Jim Webb (D-VA), a Vietnam veteran, worked hard to pass a new GI Bill: S. 22. The bill increases education benefits for the men and women of the US military.

Webb reached out across the aisle to Sen. McCain, a fellow veteran, to help back the bill; but McCain refused and in fact spoke out against S. 22.

Of course McCain has the right to express disapproval for any bill he disagrees with, even if it seems strange for a veteran to be against better education funding for soldiers. But what he shouldn''t be doing is touting S. 22 as a bill that he backed now that it has passed (75-22).

Watch as McCain uses the bill that he fought to kill as part of his stump speech at a town hall event, stating:

I''m happy to tell you that we probably agreed to an increase in educational benefits for our veterans that not only gives them an increase in their educational benefits, but if they stay in for a certain amount of time than they can transfer those educational benefits to their spouses and or children. That''s a very important aspect I think of incentivizing people of staying in the military.

Obama is a modern-day Marxist.


Castro and Obama share many of the same values and principles for the country''''s economy:

1. Redistribute the country''''s wealth - Marxism 101

2. Grow the size of the government - Create new departments dedicated to supporting Item 1

3. Blame greedy American corporations for the pains of the US and the rest of the world

4 Increase taxes on those already paying the largest percentage and total amount. The top 1% already pay 39% of all taxes.

5 Nationalize healthcare

6 Campaign on a principle based on appealing to the lower income 50% of the US to despise the rich and convince 45% of the other half that their life is miserable so that once convinced of their doom and gloom, they will support the doomsayer and will want bigger government
