I don't want to be so cynical. Some one just tell me this is BS. Just received this email. even I don't want to believe it.



WAKE UP AMERICA!!!






Been around before but worth circulating until he's
A part of the rewritten history books!
I forward this as received, but without comment.

Yes, he told us in advance what he planned to do. Few were listening.




The following is a narrative taken from a 2008 Sunday morning televised "Meet The Press'.




From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, Televised "Meet the Press" THE THEN Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.




General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.




The General stated to Obama that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171...




During rendition of the national anthem, when the flag is displayed, all present (except those in uniform) are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Or, at the very least, "Stand and Face It".




NOW GET THIS !!




'Senator' Obama replied:




"As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides".. "There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression.." "The anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing."




(ARE YOU READY FOR THIS???)




Obama continued: "The National Anthem should be 'swapped' for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing'. If that were our anthem, then, I might salute it. In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National Anthem as well as 'redesign' our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we, as a Nation of waring people, conduct ourselves like the nations of Islam, where peace prevails - - - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist between our governments ...."

When I become President, I will seek a pact of agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation, have placed upon the nations of Islam, an unfair injustice which is WHY my wife disrespects the Flag and she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past".




"Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put my hatred aside. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path..My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First black Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America "




WHAAAAAAAT, the Hell is that???




Yes, you read it right.




I, for one, am speechless!!!

Nothing new.

What to expect from a globalist pig? Really, it's OK.
He will get his. The sleeping giant snores no longer.

I think Bon Jovi's "Living on a Prayer" should be our national anthem.

Ok, I'll tell you it just isn't true. The whole quote is balony and Barry never said it:

Always check the source for inflammatory quotes attributed to leaders that fail to contain a link to the original report. This same bogus stuff went around during Bush II (the sequel) and it serves no useful purpose. Ignore

It certainly didn't ring true. If he HAD said it, it would have ruined his chances for winning the election.

You all know my feelings about the anthem. It's the worst example of America & Americans ever - a stolen melody with lyrics that are peppered liberally with question marks.

It should be replaced with something more relevant, more meaningful, & more exemplary of this country...& something that the general public can SING without stretching their vocal cords!

If that's the case...then why do we need an anthem at all? For that matter, why do we need a president anymore? America is sophisticated enough that it could actually run itself without Congress or exec. (We still need the judicial...)

t's worth recalling, again, President John F. Kennedy's use of a German phrase while standing before the Berlin Wall. It would be great, his wordsmiths thought, for him to declare himself a symbolic citizen of Berlin. Hence, Ich bin ein Berliner. What they did not know, but could easily have found out, was that such citizens never refer to themselves as 'Berliners.' They reserve that term for a favorite confection often munched at breakfast. So, while they understood and appreciated the sentiments behind the President's impassioned declaration, the residents tittered among themselves when he exclaimed, literally, 'I am a jelly-filled doughnut.'
