Lapel Flag Pins
Doesn't the media have something better to do than report--ad nauseam--that Sen. Obama didn't wear a flag pin on his lapel? How ridiculous. How many of you--or the media--wear one EVERY DAY? Does wearing one make you more "patriotic"? Does not wearing one make you "less patriotic"? I dare anyone to accuse me of being unpatriotic because I don't wear one every day and don't support every edict that comes from Washington!
If YOU think that wearing a flag on your chest qualifies your candidate for the White House or qualifies your candidate or anyone as a "true American," then, people, this country is in worse chaos than I already believe it is.
Get a grip. Write about things that matter: world peace, health insurance, protection of our borders, education, rampant crime--the fact that our boys don't have proper equipment to defend themselves and that some are now on their third deployment to a War Zone. Write about the issues; speak about the issues; and quit trying to muddy the waters of public opinion!

So true - my son is on his second deployment and I would hate to know how much I spent to provide proper equipment. I believe in what he does - - couldn't handle him being gone if I didn't.... but I don't wear and pin and I don't judge those who don't. The media has to be scrambling for things to talk about if this is considered "news"...
