Obama Ditches The American Flag

Barack Obama used donations to refurbish and repaint his campaign plane, and has removed the flag of the United States from the tail of the plane. Reports Bonnie Kapp for Fox Embed:

[T]he plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the Obama “O.” “Change We Can Believe In” and the candidate’s website are splayed across both sides of the fuselage, making this 757 anything but inconspicuous.

This means, of course, that the people of Afghanistan, Iraq, Jordan, Israel, Germany, and other countries will see a plane without an American flag — a plane on which the sole symbol is all about one man. Barack: Afghans and Iraqis won’t be voting for you in November. But they will notice that you failed to represent yourself as a proud American citizen while you are abroad. We’ve noticed too.

Here is an image of Air Force One, with the American flag appropriately displayed:

Here is the tail section of Obama’s plane:

Below is the image of the front section of Obama’s newly repainted plane:

As a patriotic American citizen, I am embarrassed that a presumptive presidential candidate would fail to display a core symbol of the United States of America.

As a patriotic American citizen, I’ve been somewhat concerned about Barack Obama’s failure to put his hand over his heart during the playing of the National Anthem as well as his blather when he was forced to explain why he didn’t wear the popular flag pin.

As a patriotic American citizen, I am deeply concerned that the Democratic party may nominate a candidate who is solely focused on displaying his OWN image and symbols rather than those of his party and his country.

Not only is his plane’s symbolism unpatriotic, it is also narcissistic.

Any bets on when his gasbag fills up so much he floats away into space, never to be seen or heard from again (and his supporters then claim he’s ascended into heaven AGAIN?)

Comment by Maddy | 2008-07-21 15:18:53

I like it (and I hate planes). Would you not have criticized him for having the US flag on the tail for being too presumptuous?

Comment by Ferdberfle | 2008-07-21 15:30:02

The short answer is “no”. The American Flag should be flown on an American aircraft.

Comment by missE | 2008-07-21 15:41:32

The press is on that plane. Obama is on Air Farce One pictured here.

Doesn’t matter…can you imagine Hillary painting a big H on the tail of one of the planes she’s using?

Holy hell would break loose.

obama’s a JOKE! J O K E.

Comment by Pat Knif | 2008-07-28 22:07:05

As someone else said, it’s a wonder he didn’t paint a great big picture of himself on the plane.

“The short answer is “no”. The American Flag should be flown on an American aircraft.”…

….The short answer to that would be “You’re a great big liar”.

Hey genius, did you actually bother to LOOK at a commercial airliner or a private jet before you made this moronic statement?

Why don’t you try Googling “commercial aircraft, photos” andcome back and tell us what you find.

Comment by jcm | 2008-07-22 01:31:43

His LINE is he is on this trip as a US senator – the american tax payer is footing the bill for this trip – so he is doing his advertising on a plane that the gas, the staff, etc are being funded by the US gov. not his camp. – it is not just an everyday commercial airliner.

 

Comment by DontTreadOnMe | 2008-07-24 13:21:23

Hey Josh from Brooklyn:

Try googling “commercial u.s. aircraft, photos” and tell US what you find… MORON!

Comment by Indy | 2008-07-21 15:30:50

Huh? He is presumptuous with his crass new airplane. He is presumptuous to go overseas and behave as though he’s already in office. He presumptuous for not displaying the US flag anywhere on his crass and gaudy campaign plane.

Comment by Indy | 2008-07-21 15:32:13

By “already in office” I mean already President.

 

Comment by terri | 2008-07-21 15:54:18

I can’t remember any presidential candidate campaigning overseas. Guess he’s running for King of the World like Bush. Stupid loony-liberal Democrats think he’s the answer to all the problems Bush created, but he will just make them worse.

Comment by Diana | 2008-07-21 16:13:11

I’m waiting for Larry the Toolbag to show up. I just heard Obama on the radio saying he and Maliki never even discussed a timeline so how could they agree to one? Remember him yesterday going ballistic with his conspiracy theory over the CNN retraction. I hope someone caught it and puts it on youtube. I was driving.

 

Comment by Ted | 2008-07-21 19:50:26

Really? McCain was in Iraq a couple of months ago. He met with local leaders, military commanders, and troops. Just like Obama.

This is typical of the Obama opposition. “He hasn’t gone to Iraq – what a joke.” “He’s in Iraq, what a joke.”

Comment by MEchelle Hates America! | 2008-07-21 22:11:17

And he’s campaining using our tax dollars rather than charging the expense from his campaign funds to pay for this trip. He will just tell you “I’m going as a senator.”

Maddy, you don’t get it, do you? Your boy is turning people off in droves with his compulsive me, me, me. I’ve seldom seen a more self-absorbed personality, housed in the body and mind of an incredibly imperfect person.
It almost seems as though he’d like to do away with the American flag altogether. Wonder why!!
Guess those Arab roots are coming home to roost!

Comment by xax | 2008-07-21 17:51:18

What would be presumptuous about a UNITED STATES SENATOR and PRESIDENTIAL nominee displaying the flag of his country. He’s supposed to be all patriotic now after that BIG SPEECH (any one surprised?) that he gave a few weeks ago. If he really wanted to be patriotic he should have had the whole damn plane wrapped in red, white and blue.

FLIP. FLOP.

You arrogant prick.

 

Comment by elise | 2008-07-21 18:26:23

No, the Flag is not presumptuous. I see them flying everywhere. Now, if he had put his “Presidential Seal” on the plane’s tail, that would have been.

 

Comment by fif | 2008-07-21 19:03:32

Here’s the thing: he represents THE U.S. NOT HIMSELF!! That is the damn problem. It’s all about BO.

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-21 19:22:21

If he is representing himself as it appears he is, then the bastard should pay all the expenses himself.

Comment by geegee | 2008-07-26 02:56:46

He is not using public funds.

Comment by TJ | 2008-08-27 23:53:37

Not using public funds? Those Secret Service agents are paid for by public funds. The rest from US, foreign and Hamas donors.

The plane comes with a flag on the tail. It’s an American plane. International law requires flag of country of origin and registration number. I have typed this slowly so that you can understand it.

Comment by airlinephl | 2009-09-19 20:56:40

no true…the ICAO requires a registration number not a flag. Most Airliners have there countries flag but not GA and biz jets.

Comment by Sarah | 2008-10-14 11:45:03

i think that if you are running for president in AMERICA then you SHOULD have the AMERICAN FLAG on the plane unless you do not support america which is clearly being shown.

 

Comment by tammy | 2008-10-22 07:43:42

I think that if you are working for OUR country you should support OUR country in any way possible. It is OUR flag and should be displayed everywhere to show OUR pride for OUR country. If we don’t stand up for it who will?

Comment by RunningDogLackey | 2008-07-21 17:41:05

Let’s see. You’re pissed when he DOESN’T wear a flag pin, and you’re pissed when he DOES. You’re pissed when he uses a mock-Presidential seal, and you’re pissed when he DOESN’T paint his plane like Air Force One.

Congratulations! You are now officially a bunch of bitter, irrelevant cranks.

Comment by Ferd Berfle | 2008-07-21 17:59:04

You don’t read very well, do you? I’m sure we’d all just like him to behave with a little decorum. The bantam rooster shtick ain’t workin’.

 

Comment by xax | 2008-07-21 18:04:36

Let’s get something straight.
Some people were upset about him not wearing the pin. But you see how fast his holy flip flop “I stand on principals” ran to wear one. So I think you should be more mad at him and not us.

Another thing, you can’t seem to follow a logical sequence. Instead you string events together as if they are relevant when in fact they are separate. The presidential seal and a plane are two different things.
Problem with the seal: we have this thing called democracy where the majority of people have to vote for you. Confidence is one thing, but attaching yourself to an office which the American people haven’t seen fit to ALLOW you to have is arrogant and annoying. i.e. people are pissed.
Problem with the plane: His holy flip flop gives this HUGH speech (again… is any one surprised?) about how patriotic he is. I’ve seen some of his commercials. They are sappier than the kool aid he hands out at his rallies. Reminiscent of quintessential Americana. And then he goes and replaces a US flag on a US plane with his own logo. Can’t you see how this would annoy people, again? He wasn’t making his plane look like AIR FORCE ONE (ala presidential seal), he removed the US flag and replaced it with his own design.

Arrogance. Simple.

 

Comment by elise | 2008-07-21 18:34:50

Listen Lackey. I never cared one way or the other about the flag pin, but he made a big deal about refusing to wear one and now he wears one. It’s more about what it says of his lack of character. Have you seen the picture where he refuses to put his hand on his heart during the Star Spangeled Banner? That was deliberiate also and one would have to wonder at that point he was still trying to keep faith with Rev. Wright. Too much odd about his behavior and it suggests someone who is creating himself as he goes along. Is that a sign of something lacking he is trying to fill in his ambition?

 

Comment by fif | 2008-07-21 19:05:54

He didn’t wear the pin because he didn’t have a genuine sense of love and pride for his country. Then he DID, because he needed to pander to middle America. Same thing with the plane. He does not understand that he is just a symbol for American ideals. Obama represents Obama.

 

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-21 20:16:57

That’s because we can recognize a faker when we see one.

 
 

Comment by susan | 2008-07-21 17:54:59

This may be the straw that breaks the camel’s back! For all the glory appointed by the media to Obama and his campaign staff, they sure do some assinine things, and this one takes the cake! Surely, there must be some other country to live in that you all respect, for you have certainly shown lack of respect for this one, time and time again. Perhaps the country Obama was born in???

Comment by The Real Hope | 2008-07-21 17:58:45

Yes where is that brothel that he was born in? What country was that?

Shows the hypocrisy here. John McWars plane does not even use the colors red white and blue and has McCain.com on the tail.

Comment by Pink Panther | 2008-07-21 18:09:09

McCain didn’t paint over the American flag like Obama did; thus, you are either obtuse or a hypocrite yourself.

Hey, NoBigotry, until you stop becoming a bigot, stop criticizing others.

If you support the racist and sexist obama, you are a bigot.

Comment by JA | 2008-07-21 22:15:17

Looks like McCain must have painted over the flag as well. His plane has mccain.com on the tail.

It doesn’t have to be in large detail on the tail, but itmust be on the plane and anyway, you’re wrong.

 
 
 

Comment by tzada | 2008-07-21 18:30:10

But did John McCain remove a flag? Did McCain make up a slimy “presidential” seal? Obama is making much ado about this trip, while McCain went quietly from country to country. There is a vast difference.You as a sheep that is blinded from Obama self reflected glory I understand that you just don’t get it.

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-21 19:24:31

The symbol on the tail makes it look like a commercial plane from a middle eastern country.

Comment by SalRei | 2008-07-21 23:07:14

This whole line of conversation is really ridiculous. Look around at a sporting events.Most people grew up putting their hand on their heart for the Pledge of Allegiance”, not the National Anthem. But do remove your hat!Do all of you really care about silly things like plane decor and flag pins? None of this has anything to do with how someone will govern this country. How often does McCain wear a flag pin? Who cares. It doesn’t mean anything. If you really care, look up both candidates websites and read their positions on all of the issues. By the way, McCain is the one who practically dared Obama to go to Iraq. McCain traveled overseas earlier this year while Obama was in the primary versus CLinton. That was poor timing on his part. If Obama kept misstating the locations of countries like McCain does (GMA today ….Iraq/Pakistan border) we would never hear the end of it. All of this worry about superficial things is immature. Grow up!

Comment by Kelly | 2008-07-22 01:27:15

Actually, I believe that one is to place one’s hand over one’s heart during the anthem only if there is a flag displayed.

If you think of baseball- the players and fans have theirs hands over their hearts because a flag is always displayed.

 

Comment by s. hall | 2008-07-23 00:15:02

salrei–Don’t you think Obama should show his birth certificate? Do you think its a trivial thing for a man to try to run for President if he wasn’t born in this country? Cause thats the law. Perhaps its you who should grow up.

Comment by d-rod | 2008-08-03 19:33:12

um, he was born in this country. last time I checked, Honolulu was in Hawaii…and I’m pretty sure Hawaii is still in the United States. perhaps you should review your geography..or at least your facts.

 
 

Comment by d-rod | 2008-08-03 19:37:11

a bit rudely said, but essentially 100% correct in my view. to me patriotism is more about actions, doing what is best for the people in the country, not superficial symbolism. I don’t get offended when people at a sporting event do not take off their hats during the anthem…why should we get upset if Obama doesn’t wear a pin? This ra-ra-country stuff is pretty outdated…and pretty much unimportant.

 
 
 

Comment by wants to stay free | 2008-10-22 07:51:25

Atleast McCain puts his hand over his heart and recites OUR national anthem, he also wears his pin without complaint. He supports the war becasue he cares for someone other than HIMSELF.

Well… I showed the plane’s tail image to a friend in the UK and they immediately asked what the “big white hump” was in the middle of the logo…! We both started laughing when she said it ‘looked like a ‘bell end’ (Brit-speak for penis)… HAHAHHAHAHAHAH… Aye… symbolism for his freakin ego!

Comment by workingclass artist | 2008-07-22 07:46:50

Hmmm….sjc-tx…The “bell end”….chuckle….could also indicate the OBAMA VACCUM, or the resulting loss of formerly useful brain matter that happens during cult indoctrination…Or maybe it’s a classic subliminal symbol/tool that activates a kind of white noise buzzing comfort to keep the members in line and remind them of their new ultra purpose as designed by Dear Leader…

It is quite funny how a lot of people say that the Bush administration is horrible and they are ruining our country. Last time I checked the democrats are the ones running it at this time so maybe people need to stop Blaming Bush for all the things they are planning. I find it completely ridiculous that Obama took the flag off his plane and apologized for the U.S. Do people really want a President who could care less about what we need just because he needs to fulfill his ego. And btw him pulling the RACISM card is getting old and it ties into him pulling the American flag off his plane.

You got that right, Fenelon(great screen name, by the way). Thank you Larry, SusanUnPC, Texas Darlin,Charles L. and the whole community of NQ which keeps me sane. Angry as hell but inspired.

Bawak is the Manchurian Candidate/Trojan Horse of Fascism. Not Marxism. Fascism: when the Corporate and Political are one and the same. This great emptiness, this Chicago Swamp Thing is a wholly owned fraud.

The signage on the plane(and who owns that plane, I’d like to know?) IS all about symbolism. You know, about the One…the Leader. The Great Hollow O. It is a message to the Internationl Corporate Nobility(read: the New World Order guys, the Bilderbergers and their greedy, unholy, feudal brethren)that we bought ours, you, too, can do the same. Control the press. Lie, steal, cheat, threaten… It’s of a piece with Bawak’s prancing about getting Foreign Policy “experience” in this tragic, Theatre of the Grotesque. The laughing, billionaire oligarchs behind Bawak are truly dangerous. I rue for the future of our American Democracy if this thug gets anywhere near the White House. This illegitimate pos must be stopped at Denver. If they crown him by acclamation in Denver, we are, as a Nation, in very serious trouble. Think: Bawak’s Civilian National Security Force. Think: Gestapo. Less than 60,000 Gestapo operatives controlled 80,000,000 Germans. It CAN happen here. Easy,the mechanisms are already in place thanks to W. and our corrupt Congress. Never forget that the elites(industrial, military, religious and old,Prussian conservatives)in 1933 Germany thought they could control Hitler…

NO OBAMA EVER!

I think that Global Poverty Act that Obama introduced, has a clause in there giving that right away to the UN. It has passed the Senate.

There are no reporters today.
Definiton of a reporter a person who reports news for a newspaper or broadcasting company.
When is the last time a so called reporter just reported news without bias?
I remember a time when news was reported ,and the people were given enough credit ,that they could make their own minds.
At one time the people did not know which candidate a reporter would vote for.
A reporters job is report news only, not slant the facts to favor one candidater over another.
The end of a unbias press is the beginning of the end of a free country.

Worst Case Scenario….Obama is an effective and typical FASCIST capable of succeeding in completion of the GREAT CON that proceeds to implementation of whatever master plans he and his pals have in mind ( disguised as much needed reform…BLA…BLA…BLAA using classic Goebbles tools etc…..
Typical White Person…I used to be member of the empty suit skeptical camp, Until Uncle Jerry showed up….Now I have progressed into full blown cynicism, as I have watched The Obama campaign employ the tools perfected by the likes of Adolf and the Gang and Josef or Mao and assorted happy commie thugs……( sigh )

The article at the website identified below is called, “Who is Jeanne

There is no reason Obama would have the American flag on his plane. After all he attended that anti American church for 20 years and old habits are hard to break. Besides his plane is not as likely to be shot down displaying his Obama emblem, which all the Muslim world now recognizes, as it is if it has the American flag displayed. The hope of the world has arrived (according to lewis Farrakhan).

I think his mother may have suffered from it too.
Next to the video are the DSM-VI (Psychiatric manual) hypotheses as to what ae the etiological causes of this NPD
One of them is “unreliable and unpredictable parenting”.
I think he may have inherited it from his Mother.

The “baboon” comment by suthrn above is just abominable — abominable enough that you have to think that suthrn is some sort of ReverseBot sent here to make the site look as ridiculous as possible.

Which leads me to an observation about a diary at Daily Kos this morning by sardonyx, listing the most frequent commenters at that site since last December. The heavy presence of fervent Bots in that list kind of confirms a suspicion I had about some of the 2007 arrivals at that site — that they’re paid by the Obama campaign on a per-comment basis. What else would motivate the top Bots there to make, on average, 200 (largely vicious) comments per day? $1 per comment maybe? That’d be $200 per day, $1,600 per week, and a nice annual salary. But, jeez, how tiring it must be to be on a 200 comments/day or 25 comments/hour work schedule.

Comment by AF catfish | 2008-07-21 15:45:24

I noticed a surge in new users at dailykos supporting either Edwards and Obama – all appeared out of nowhere, very talkative right away (never went through the shy lurker phase regular commenters tend to do) all with user numbers 150,000 and up. Makes sense, since Trippi set up Obama’s “cyber war room” and he came over from Edwards’ campaign.

Now the real commenters have abandoned the site. The cyber war room trolls probably don’t realize they’re just talking to each other.

Comment by LB | 2008-07-21 15:52:41

I noticed the same thing back in late ‘07 — 150K+ UIDs. Good point about Trippi. Those guys know how to manipulate the online world and who can doubt they’re doing it again this time? And yes, the “real commenters” did disappear (many to first Talk Left and MyDD and now to here and elsewhere, or just commenting in non-candidate diaries there). Wonder if Markos ever admits to himself that he’s been used (as in tool)?

Together, Bush and Obama leveled the playing field in a way. Harvard, Yale and Columbia degrees no longer carry quite the cache or (supposed) proof of intelligence they once did.

More are hip to the fact that legacies (Bush and Obama both, Obama’s dad went to Harvard) can graduate from those schools just fine; the faculty pulls you through to graduation.

I still don’t understand why Obama didn’t put his hand over his heart during the national anthem. Would it hurt him to place his hand there for just a minute or so? It wasn’t like everyone else is doing it too.
Obama does not respect ANYTHING except his own image. He will use things and people when it suits him, then throw them under the bus when he is done with them.

 

Comment by The Real Hope | 2008-07-21 15:43:02

Obama is not a patriot! He does not love our country folks. The display of the American Flag is an embarrassment for him. This reminds us once again of his refusal to put his hand over his heart whence he recites the Pledge of Allegiance as was evidenced by a recent photo of him standing on the podium next to the traitor Governor Richardson and our beloved true PATRIOT Hillary Clinton! Remember that photo friends?

We cannot expect someone who was schooled in Indonesia during the formative years of his life to be a patriot! Barach’s mother was an ultra-nutwing liberal who taught him to LOVE THE WORLD FIRST! She would have been Queen of the NUTROOTS today had she lived out her life.

This man is a confused nitwit who deserves not an ounce of our respect or good wishes.

Simple: because he’s a nutwing, far-left liberal not schooled here in his formative years. He was raised by a mother who believed in UTOPIA! I can smell it a mile away with this guy. He is a Citizen of the World first. He thinks he’s Thomas Jefferson in Paris all over again.

I totally agree, American before party.

No, I haven’t signed that one but I have signed others.

But why worry? Obama supporters have assured us that when he’s President Obama will overturn such legislation single handed.

Problem is FISA is now legally the law of the land. Does anyone believe the telecomms won’t take this all the way to the Supreme Court?

Who needs the other branches when you can govern by fiat? Under Bush – that’s bad. Under Obama – that’s good.

He already refers to his status as a Senator in the PAST TENSE, he names his plane Obama One….he takes votes and bills from others, of COURSE he thinks he’s already annointed.

He is just an embarrassment to the United STates of America. What is wrong with the media. Are they all going through a 40 year old crisis?? I am beginning to think they are all crazy. I hope his bubble bursts soon.

Come over to this site and help us get the real Obama out on the radar screen!

I thought Obama’s people were so concerned about his security? How does this make sense with that in consideration. Put a bulls-eye on the tail?

As for arrogance? This is not unlike the [un]Presidential seal. Sort of reminds me of dress-up that my sister and I played as kids. Except even as kids we realized it was make believe.

God help us if this crew is ever elected! Where’s my parachute????

Comment by Clinton Fan | 2008-07-21 15:59:10

I thought he was going over to the ME on a CODEL??

Also new to the plane: mesh curtains that divide the press and Secret Service from the staff and candidate’s parts of the plane. While Obama and his staff get first class seating, press and agents are relegated to standard 3 seats-per-row seating. But, staffers advise us that some rows were taken out of the plane to give us more leg room.

He shouldn’t be flying in his CAMPAIGN plane–he really should be in USG transport.

Comment by AnnieO | 2008-07-21 18:17:40

There was also the comment from the press that BO was fed chicken, rice, and broccoli, but everyone else got sandwiches and candy. Let them eat sandwiches!

You know, that Barack Obama LOGO always looked vaguely familiar to me… then it dawned on me… I collect video and pictures of Nuclear explosions. That white in the center does not look like the Sun shining down… it looks like another nuke explosion…

Since he is have a patriotism problem, don’t you think he would at least have a flag somewhere on the plane along with his motto?

Comment by sayitisntso | 2008-07-21 16:15:58

It occurs to me that this trip of Obama’s would never have been possible several years ago. He can take his media pals and prance around after a showy flight on his decorated plane, but without the surge, they’d all be no more than targets.

I am PUMA, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an’ pretend
’cause I’ve heard it all before
And I’ve been down there on the floor
No one’s ever gonna keep me down again

CHORUS
Oh yes I am wise
But it’s wisdom born of pain
Yes, I’ve paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am PUMA

You can bend but never break me
’cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
’cause you’ve deepened the conviction in my soul

CHORUS

I am PUMA watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin’ arms across the land
But I’m still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Until I make my country understand

Oh yes I am wise
But it’s wisdom born of pain
Yes, I’ve paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to I can face anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am PUMA
Oh, I am PUMA
I am invincible
I am strong

I am PUMA
I am invincible
I am strong

Comment by Bell'Artista | 2008-07-21 16:26:46

Considering the nearly unimaginable bloated obesity of obama’s ego, it is amazing the plane can get off the ground.

Has any emissary from any country anywhere ever failed to display the flag of his country before? Ever?
Even at boxing matches the national anthems of all countries involved are sung and everyone stands.
obama’s behaviour here is so over the top and in glaringly poor taste that none but the most callous person who has never been proud of their country before could feel anything other than extraordinary shame at this further example of this supposed American’s phenomenal narcissism.

Nice that he will fly to Israel in that hideous ode to himself…..today I received an email from McCain expressing his condolences to Jews and to Israel:
For Immediate Release

Contact: Press Office

Friday, July 17, 2008

703-650-5550
“I wish to extend my deepest condolences to the families of Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser. When I met the Regev and Goldwasser families in Israel, I was moved by their profound love for their sons, who were kidnapped by Hezbollah in the summer of 2006. Now we know that Eldad and Ehud made the ultimate sacrifice for the country they served and loved. In spite of this tragic loss, Israel and the United States will remain united in their struggle against terrorism. The continuing attacks on Israel by Hezbollah, Hamas, and other terrorist groups supported by state sponsors of terror like Syria and Iran pose a severe threat to Israel. Our democratic ally is under siege, and these two deaths are just the latest in a long line of brave Israelis who have been killed by vicious terrorists. Though we mourn the loss of Eldad Regev and Ehud Goldwasser, we are reminded by this that we must never waver in our support for Israel, and we cont inue to demand the release of Gilad Shalit, taken captive by Hamas and held illegally since the summer of 2006.”

Now this is from a man cut from far finer cloth than the bloated egoist with the plane, a man who understands that the Presidency is not about the President as much as those he serves.
I think o has further shown the caliber of his good judgment and character here…..ZERO

Comment by Diana | 2008-07-21 17:47:44

Thank you for sharing that. They also have my deepest condolences. I’ve lost family members in this war. Two cousins in one day blown up at a checkpoint by terrorists. I just have to have faith and pray that their lives were not given in vain. I know they believed in what they were doing. That one day when our troops have come home that we will have made great accomplishments there. That the Iraqi people will live free from tyranny. That their sons and daughters will be able to go to college, and that they will now prosper as a nation.

He’s the sleeper cell sent to destroy us from the inside out. As unreal and crazy as it seems, how else do you explain this protege of Axel evil rod.

People are dying of cancer and don’t have medecine, children are failing at school, gas is so expesive working class people cannot afford to drive, and the costs of the misguided war in Iraq is 10BILLION A MONTH and you are analyzing a logo on an airplane. GET OVER YOURSELVES AND START THINKING OF YOUR COUNTRY. SHAME ON YOU.

Comment by LB | 2008-07-21 16:41:01

Well Mary, maybe you should have thought of all that before you and yours engaged in race-baiting and then calling the Clintons and their supporters “racist”, no?

Comment by Mary Brown | 2008-07-22 01:20:28

You assume based on what? Prove to me that I ever race baited anyone? Do you ever have a discussion on issues? Do you care at all about people who are suffering? Do you care that we are in debt to the Chinese and the Indians- a debt incurred because the present administration could not pay for the Iraq War? Do you care that soldiers are electrocuted because companies hired by this administration cannot or will not do proper work? You accuse Obama of having a large and self centered ego. I think you do. By the way have you contacted your congressman or Senator about the health issues of returning troops? Have you asked them about shoddy workmanship. You see sweetie I am a military wife. My husband served for over 20 years, two of my sons served and I have nephew in Iraq. So spare me stupid arguments that help nothing

Comment by Peggy Sue | 2008-07-21 17:39:35

And what would your candidate do to solve those massive problems?

Cancer research? Seems to me HRC made that a policy issue, breast cancer specifically. Does Obama have a plan to eradicate cancer. Do tell.

Failing at school? What are OB’s positions? I know McCain wants to give parents a choice between private schools, charter schools and the flawed and clearly failing public school system. Doesn’t make the teachers’ union happy. But that’s the sort of gauntlet you need to throw down to make things happen, to bring about change [the real kind].

Expensive gas? Last time I checked Barack Obama claimed he could get us to energy independence by 2032. Forgive me, but that timetable is a bit hard to accept considering best case scenario he only has 8 years and that he refuses to sanction a “bridge” to get to “energy Nirvana.” We could all be speaking Chinese by 2032.

The misguided war? Yes, I agree to the past; it was misguided, foolish, downright stupid and hideously wasteful in lives and money. Unfortunately, we’re dealing with the present and the future. It’s hard to put lipstick on a pig, but that’s where we at.

The question is, how do we remove ourselves from Iraq without encouraging a bloodbath or worse situation for the US than we have right now? And Obama? From what I hear only the theater would change. A switcheroo from Iraq to Afghanistan. Doesn’t make me feel any safer or thinking we’re headed into anything remotely resembling a peace movement. Get those guys out in 16 months, so we can march them right into Afghan territory. And he’ll get Osama by invading Pakistan? Perfect. Why don’t we start broadcasting that news every day to the tribal areas. I’m sure the tribal chiefs would appreciate the heads up.

Should I mention gun control, FISA, or the NAFTA wiggle wobbles?

Frankly, I and most people here are thinking of country. Country before Party.

Shame on you!

Yes- Obama is against vouchers- yet he sends his offspring to private school. I guess he does not want “just anyone” to go to private school.

 

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-22 02:18:27

Yeah, but he said he’s planning to be president for the next 8 to 10 years, so that gives him a little more time, no?

Comment by wants to stay free | 2008-10-22 09:14:18

the last time I checked you could only be president for 2 terms and terms run in 4 year increments, so if he plans on being in office for 8 to 10 years does that mean he plans on taking that right away from us too? Alone with everything else he plans on taking away. WE will have no rights left when he is done. We will all be his slaves in Obamanation!

 
 
 

Comment by Diana | 2008-07-21 18:20:21

And how much did that logo cost to get painted on that jet that could have been given to a charity that helps in the areas you named. We have a presidential candidate that has gone through over 200 million dollars. 200 million dollars that claims to a be a champion of these causes, and never though to donate a penny of it to show he’s a champion of these causes. He could have brought truckloads of food and driven them around the country passing out food to those in need. Think about the PR that would have gotten him. He could have gone home when 32 children lay dying in the street to address their parents pain. He did not. Think of the PR that would have gotten him. Did he go to Katrina when it happened to help lift his people up? No he did not. Clinton who just had open heart surgery did and stayed. Think of the PR that would have gotten him. So come back down off your pedestal before you fall off.

Just Words.

“As I’ve said about the flag pin, I don’t want to be perceived as taking sides,” Obama said. “There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the (our national) anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose”.

There you have it Capt’n Obamica.

Comment by Lee | 2008-07-31 08:07:47

scott in jupiter,

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 10:39:51

Love is not the word, so please stop assuming idolatry from every Obama supporter. Honestly, every election I feel like I have to choose the lesser of two evils. Finally, I feel like we have better choices this time. Why I support Obama: I think we need to get out of Iran and concentrate on AQ in Afghanistan; I would not like to see the Supreme Court become more conservative; I think we need a new type of diplomacy both in the Middle East and around the world; I think we need to quit giving tax breaks to the very wealthy; I think health care should be affordable but not mandatory (that’s why I supported Obama over Clinton). That’s just a start….

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 10:46:19

Ok, I’ll agree with you on one point. BOBO certainly has what it takes to get us out of Iran.

It sounds like you’re riding on a cloud of hope. Try not to look down.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 13:01:27

I don’t want to see us prosecuting and fining people who cannot afford the payments or who choose to live outside the system. There are many people who choose holistic health care: midwifery, acupuncture, massage, Chinese herbs and other practices not covered by insurance. There are doctors in my area who do not participate in insurance. I think they should continue to have the freedom of choice. I had home births with a midwife for three of my kids. Not covered by insurance (we didn’t have any) but safe and affordable. Most people could and probably should opt in, but I can’t imagine forcing it.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 13:03:38

PS. Actually, I think insurance has mucked everything up so badly that I’d like to see it abolished. But everyone calls that evil socialism, so no candidate will stand up for that.

Comment by Darryl | 2008-07-21 17:25:06

I don’t have any kids. I have a master’s in Molecular Biology. You seems intellegent enough though. Listen. I have been trained to do scientific research and while ALL the canidates avaialable to us flop on issues, I have to tell you, Obama is the worst of them all. He is fooling everyone. I pray for you and your children. This man is the biggest liar I have ever seen in politics, and whats even worse is the press is going along with it. There is tons and tons of documented video tape where he says one thing and then out right lies and says, “I never took that position”. Its one thing to change your mind, but Obama lies about it.

Thats not the scariest part either. The scariest part is that news media is knowingly not calling him on it and that so many people ONLY believe what the news tells them. My college teaching leads me to one conclusion. Democracy is over. This is the same pattern seen throughout history when despots took over a country. All you have to do is pick up a history book and read about Hitler and Musolinni, and the little red book in china with Daoi. This is not a joke and you need to wake up from the dream that the media is trying so very very very hard to sell to you.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 17:32:58

Even though I don’t agree with you, I do appreciate that at least one person here tried to share a genuine opinion with me and didn’t just insult me (though you already did that). I see much of what you say, though I place the blame on Bush, Cheney, Rove, Rumsfeld and others, not Obama. I will continue to read and try to think with an open mind. I hope you will as well.

The story was about Hagee, but I hadn’t heard about the plane and was interested. It’s been a real eye-opener meeting all of you. See you in November.

You do know obama mama is dead?

Obamamama
Thank you for having the decency to know when you are unwelcome. Many of your ilk don’t seem to get their persona non grata status here. Goodbye and Goodnight.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 16:49:17

I was going to leave, but I’m wondering what my ilk is, and how you would know that? The lock-step secrecy here is intriguing. This is still a free country with freedom of speech, right? What are you afraid of?

Comment by The Real Hope | 2008-07-21 16:51:25

Of you. Now go back to Atlantis.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 16:53:47

Are you the moderator here? I don’t understand the Atlantis reference.

Comment by The Real Hope | 2008-07-21 17:39:57

Most people from Atlantis don’t.

we aren’t afraid of you, just afraid of you sloshing kool-aid on us in your drunken state.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 16:55:44

I’m not the one making crazy comments. I’m not drunk and you have no idea what my ilk is or who I am. You hide behind some anonymous persona and insult anyone who might possibly disagree with you. Is that the proud work you do here?

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-21 16:58:14

You hide behind some anonymous persona

Oh, so I assume you must be Obama’s mama…back from the dead.
Makes sense. You have the same level of sensitivity.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 17:06:39

What rude comment did I make? I just now looked at the home page to see what the site was about. I didn’t know when I clicked on the link to get here. Fine impression you guys made. I don’t want to “talk” to you so much, I just didn’t understand some of the crazy “Atlantis” and “Hitler youth” comments. You know, people in the real world have friends who don’t agree with them about everything. I have friends who support Hillary, and those who support McCain. None of them speak to me like that, so I was surprised to hear it. I’m sure your candidate (still not sure if it’s Hillary or McCain) would be proud of your words here.

Comment by Donna Brazile | 2008-07-21 17:07:51

I’m voting for OBush 08!

 

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-21 17:21:02

Unlike Obama supporters, I don’t worship my candidate. My words are my opinions.

It’s funny that you’re saying you don’t want to talk to us, yet you keep talking. Couldn’t resist, could you?
Maybe you should spend more time with your friends “in the real world” since it’s obvious you can’t take the opposing viewpoints here.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 17:28:50

Actually, it was my intention to leave but I was intrigued by the intensity of the response to my visit. I was curious which candidate this was about, but blown away by the rudeness to a stranger. I can take opposing viewpoints, is that what you call these personal insults? I don’t see anything else. And by the way, I don’t worship any candidate. That’s just another insult you made to someone you know nothing about.

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-21 17:36:44

Good. Then I’m sure there’s no need to make your candidate proud or try to use it to inflict guilt on people who don’t agree with you. I read the comments. If you’re worried about manners maybe you should go back and read your own words.

Compare yours and mine, DoroB. I believe I was the most polite today.

 

Comment by LB | 2008-07-22 06:59:18

Hint to why you’re offensive here:

“obamamama”

Interpreted here as: “I love Obama”.

Reaction here is: We despise Obama. Ergo, you’re in the wrong place at the wrong time. Try Daily Kos.

Understand a little better, now?

 

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 11:19:34

Sure, I understand that you disagree with me. The venom surprises me. I had seen fairly nasty comments on other blogs, but never experienced such unwarranted hatred before. When confronted by a gang of bullies, you can either run or turn around and stand your ground. My instinct was to turn and stand up to you all. Maybe just one person can see that I am not a “bot” to be despised, but a real person who doesn’t fit your handy stereotypes. I know, I’m idealistic, but I’d rather be that than blindly despise anyone who disagrees with me.

 

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 11:30:51

it’s very apparent in the last few weeks that the tactic of the BOBOwenie hoard has been to morph in fine upstanding citzens that only want to discuss the issues and they are aghast that Hillary supporters are anything but civil. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha …save it for the tabloids sweets. We have been insulted. We have been accused. We have been censored. We have been banned. All this was done by you BOBOweenies in your mindless quest to have BOBO as the Dem nominee. You playing dumb about that is just another way to insult us. It’s funny too because if it’s true that you’re ignorant of the recent past, it demonstrates how clueless you are and if it isn’t true it shows us how despicable you are. Either way, in November I’m not voting for either one of those two choices

 

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 12:18:20

I am what I am, like Popeye. Not clueless or despicable. Not part of a horde, just an individual. I didn’t do any of the things you say. I just voted, caucused, went to my county convention, and occasionally post my comments on a blog. You lump us all together, why? I’m not dumb or playing dumb to not be what you claim. I try to stay informed and watch/read the news. I am truly sorry that so many good people feel betrayed and cheated. I think that’s a shame. I am curious who you will vote for and what you think we can do to fix this mess.

 

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 12:26:18

Yup, you’re an individual… that took sides. The second you did that your individuality became part if a group. Own it. This Pollyanna thing you have going is getting old. If your going to preach to someone about civility go preach to your own. LOL but if you do that they’ll eat you alive. We’ve been there . We know.

 

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 12:37:26

You should feel sorry for my family. They’ve had to put up with the Pollyanna thing a lot longer than you.

I know I should have left a long time ago, but I guess I just wanted you and DoroB and the others to see that you shouldn’t just lump people together and hate them blindly. I would love to see that energy put to good use.

We all took sides. That’s what happens in an election. Not everyone who voted for Obama disrespects Clinton. You don’t have to hate us all.

I will leave now, WildChild. You are right, I’ve had my say. Good luck to you in the future.

 

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 12:44:08

the age old mistake of the fringe: believing people oppose you because they hate. LOL you just showed us your true face little BOBOweenie. You will do well on the fringe.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 11:10:40

Mary is the person blogging above, not me. If I were sensitive, I would have left after the first insult.

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 11:20:41

You should have been a hillary supporter. We’ve weathered more insults then we can count.

(Comments wont nest below this level)

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 11:29:46

I think that’s true. Women are still not treated as they should be. I have three daughters and I appreciate what Hillary went through this year. She has opened doors and busted through ceilings for my daughters and all of us. She is courageous and smart.

I have been a Hillary supporter for a long time, as well as Obama. For me, it was a choice between two good candidates this year. Much of the ugly politics was practiced by the media and surrogates of many types, but blamed on the candidates. I am sick of the nastiness.

 

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 11:45:09

great, then I suppose you wouldn’t mind spending time over at Huffy Poo between now and the election practicing what you preach with the rabid BOBOweenies that populate that site. You can spread the good word…save a few souls. Oh, and please link the posts back here so we can see you are a person of your word because we’ve heard just about everything from your side and we’re not buying anymore.

 

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 11:51:25

I’ve seen the haters who support Obama, too. Nothing to admire there. But I don’t hold it against Hillary or McCain when random people are ugly on their behalf. Same goes for Obama. I guess you are referring to Huffington Post? I’m not really all that familiar with all these blogs. I generally stay over at ABCNews, where both sides argue. And yes, I get slammed there occasionally, too. Everyone does, no matter what side they are on.

 

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 11:56:53

I didn’t think you we’re going to practice what you preach. But you can’t say I didn’t give you the chance.

 

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 12:08:32

As I did you. It was very interesting meeting you.

By the way, I do “preach” the same thing over at ABCNews. I love stimualating, intelligent conversation but don’t like the insults.

 

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 12:11:07

Sorry sweets, I preach free speech. It’s the same thing I practice. There is no conflict in what I do.

Me neither. See, we have something in common.

I’m interested in hearing opposing views. You can learn from people you disagree with. I don’t hate you because you don’t like my candidate. That would be ridiculous. My name is Louie Bond. Does that change anything? I have nothing to hide. What garbage have I spewed? If we all just talk to people we agree with, how do we learn and grow? All you have done is waste an opportunity to get your message out to someone who was willing to at least listen.

 
 

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-21 19:49:24

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 17:19:51

I don’t believe my candidate is perfect. That would be foolish. I’m not ashamed of supporting him, though. Why does that make you hate me?

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-21 17:25:27

I’m not even for your candidate and I’m ashamed that he calls himself a Democrat. Do principles mean much to you? Things like 4th amendment? Obviously not that much if you can still proudly support him.

Hate you? Don’t delude yourself.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 17:35:57

I guess I wouldn’t be that rude to someone unless I hated them. I actually don’t agree with Obama’s FISA vote, but he is still more in line with my beliefs than McCain. Who is your candidate?

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-21 17:49:25

Nice tactic-calling other people rude when you’re the one who was rude. Look at your own words.

And Obama’s beliefs are?
I can tell you what they were. He used to believe in things like public financing and opposing FISA.
Go ahead and count on his beliefs. He’s still in line with your beliefs…today.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-21 18:11:11

After being called drunk, a welfare mother, deluded and some other weird things like “Hitler youth” and “Atlantis” that I don’t even understand, I think I showed some restraint in my response. What I really don’t understand is why you don’t answer when I ask sincerely who your candidate is. Seems like that would be a better way to convince me than by attacking me and my candidate.

Comment by dgr | 2008-07-21 19:56:45

Our Candidate is ANY one, and I mean ANYone, but Barack Obama. You see, it is all about Obama. Just ask Obama. Ask him about the people he did for in South Chicago. Their rat infested unheated apartments that are falling apart, and that his cronies, the ones he brought the goods home to ~ in the form of taxpayer money ~ you see, it is all touchy feely in Chicago, “you do for me, I do for you” – yeah, Barack Obama’s friends, and by association, since it was after all Government money he steered their way, political pals, his contributors, and advisors; >gasp< all that money went to those persons to keep that housing rehabilitated and maintained, well gee, I am hyperventilating, go and see for yourself. I can’t take it anymore, he turns my stomach typing _all about him_. He is a wonder. A real work of nature. Watch the video on this page, at the Boston Globe website

I see you couldn’t resist this website’s “rudeness.”
Your restraint is a tool to highlight your so-called feelings of victimhood. It’s not going to work because you were the one who started the insult, and then piteously complained about others’ responses.
I don’t feel the need to answer your question or the need to convince you, but be assured I will never support someone who flagrantly threw so many liberal causes under the bus.

I’m tenacious to a fault, I’ll admit. I don’t feel victimized or piteous. But can you truly not see a bit of ganging up and unwarranted ugliness on here? Have we really sunk that low? I like to think that there is still decency underneath the teeth you all bare at me.

 

Comment by WildChild | 2008-07-22 11:48:06

So, you never answered whether you lowly trollscum are considered part of the 2,300 “experts” helpers and minders it takes to keep the corporate diapers clean while they’re trying not to shit their pants worrying what fool thing Obama will mangle next.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 09:25:19

I have no idea what you are talking about. I’m just a regular person who isn’t interested in demonizing candidates whether I’m for them or not. Frankly, I like Hillary and McCain, think they are good people motivated to help their country. I’m glad to have a better choice than usual, both in the primary and the general election. You guys seem to be awfully angry, and I can’t really understand why. I guess I hung around to try to figure it out. My browser went down yesterday, so I checked back in this morning. Glad I didn’t miss the “lying sack of paid troll in a fat mama dress” comment.

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-22 11:28:21

Do you really want to understand why?
Who wouldn’t be angry when their votes are only counted as 1/2, when the candidate they voted for possibly will not have a presence at the convention, when the votes for their candidate were taken away and given to the one they didn’t want, when the so-called candidate of hope and change made personal insults and false attacks taken from the right-wing play book, when the candidate of hope used the African-American community to get votes and sympathy but repeatedly snubbed them? Of course you wouldn’t understand. None of the trolls understand.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 11:36:08

As a Texan, I can tell you that our primary system is already being worked on for next time. That’s what I think needs to happen. I’d like to see a vote count equally no matter where it is cast. We all need to work together to fix the broken system so that we don’t wind up at each other’s throats again four years from now. I saw shameful attacks on both sides, and little talk about issues. That hurts all of us and our country. Florida and Michigan were an absolute mess. I can certainly put myself in your shoes and understand the pain and anger you feel. I just prefer to work for change than sit and fume. You and I may very well have siimilar visions for this country, but we’ll never know if we can’t get past the primary.

Comment by DoroB | 2008-07-22 11:51:30

And by getting past primary, you think we should all just get over it. Sorry, these are important issues. If by fixing the broken system, the people with no power should just give in to the powerful, it does nothing to change the status quo. I see no effort on the side of Democratic elites and the Obama campaign to address any of these issues, but I see a lot of calls to “get over it.” And by “working for change,” you enable Obama to continue stepping on liberal values, disregarding principles, and insulting women. You are helping to continue the status quo.
No one wanted to talk about the issues more than Hillary during the primary, so don’t use that excuse. Your argument that you saw attacks on both sides is a glib way to gloss over Obama’s lack of principles.

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 11:58:43

Not “just get over it.” Democrats in Texas (both Clinton and Obama supporters) are meeting to change our primary system. How is that giving in? I don’t think the primary system was fair, so I am working to change it. Don’t you want that, too? This needs to happen in every state and within the DNC.

Freedom of speech? What are you babbling about. This is not a government site.

Your ilk is that you repeat a tired script. Your ilk always promises to leave and then stays. No one here cares what you think or do.

You merely provide a springboard for discussion and support that “you people” are just nuts.

Also, if you notice, each thread is dedicated to a topic. So, if people will not bow down to your demands, then find a thread or subject area where you can contribute.

You started out snarky so what sort of response did you expect?

Most people here disagree about many issue and we do not insult each other. I realize you have stayed to feed your ego. Why don’t you just relish in the accomplishments of your children who hopefully do not feel the need to be a cranky poster on a blog.

“Yeah, my mom is a cranky blogger lady.”

Comment by obamamama | 2008-07-22 10:25:24

“No one here cares what you think or do.”

Really? You speak for everyone who posts on this blog? I find that hard to believe. I’m not cranky in the least, nor afraid of your harshness. You seem proud to not insult those who agree with you, but it doesn’t seem like much to be proud of. I only spoke about my children when asked if I was a welfare mom. I have every right to be here, the same as you. I actually find it funny that you think freedom of speech only exists on “government sites.” Your America is a lot less free than the one enjoyed by someone of my “ilk.”

Comment by wants to stay free | 2008-10-22 10:00:09

you just want to be the center of attention and I hate to inform you but OBAMA has already tried that. You want to take all the attention away from the issues and focus on yourself. It’s very old. you want everyone talking to you not looking at the real issues at hand….. come on people just ignore it and get back to what really matters.

 
 
 
 
 

Comment by wants to stay free | 2008-10-22 09:20:08

I didn’t realize that being a proud american was spouting craziness! I thought that was the biggest issue. If Obama WAS a proud Americn there wouldn’t be an issue. He can only support his own ego, and he must have worked out an awful lot to be able to carry such a load of BS.

I know it has been somtime since I looked at FAA reg’s, but I believe the flag indicating country of origin MUST be displayed, along with the N number, somewhere on the tailtt.
Especially, since this trip was involved with conducting state “official” buisness.

HA! I am up here in the breeze minding my own and all of a sudden what do I see?

Faster than a speeding bullet bull shitter
More powerful than a locomotive “stink foot”.
Able to leap tall mounds of flip floppery in a single bound.
It’s a bird, it’s a plane , it’s BOman.

GET OVER YOURSELVES AND START THINKING OF YOUR COUNTRY. SHAME ON YOU

.

We are thinking of our country. Thats why WE are not voting for Obama..

Comment by The Real Hope | 2008-07-21 17:47:33

Shame won’t work here. We have already been beaten over the head by roaming hoardes of Obamatrolls. What has not killed us has made us stronger.

Comment by The Real Hope | 2008-07-21 17:54:52

Yes America must die according to the Obamafascists.

America is not “bilingual” enough; America is not non-white enough; America is not Muslim enough; America is not multi-cultural enough; America is not guilty enough; America is not un-christian enough; America is not ashamed enough; America is not non-materialistic enough; America is not Afro-centric enough; America is not humble enough; America is not American-Indian enough; America is not anti-Israel enough. AD INFINITUM not enough!

I’m not going to vote for an anti-American man who is ASHAMED of his country! PERIOD!

America should not be America according to Rev Wright, Michelle Obama and Barach Obama.

Actually I am glad he has removed the american flag from his plane and replaced it with the “This Way to your Hopium Fix” symbol.

The less they associate iconic symbols of this great country with this piece of poopfraud the better.

He doenst deserve to be anywhere near an american flag.

The flag is on the plane, just smaller. BO put his tiny flag beside some numbers just above the rear windows.

McCain put his larger waving flag beside the words “Reform, Prosperity and Peace”

Comment by Catherine | 2008-07-21 18:13:40

Obama’s narcisism coupled with his distain for American symbols that include the flag have been significant patterns guiding this man’s entire campaign. How many times does Obama and his wife have to tell voters he has no respect for America before the average voter, including those young voters who may as of yet fail to understand what democracy REALLY means, “gets it”? The rampant disrespect for our nation, its laws, values, and DEMOCRACY has been pervasive yet we still have citizens who somehow think this individual is going to represent our nation at home and abroad in a favorable light. Impossible for any person with half a brain, including myself to understand.

I’m actually starting to wonder about the symbol. Where did it come from and why is it so important to him. He acts like its his lucky charm or something.

 

Comment by Josh from Brooklyn | 2008-07-21 18:52:58

Now I’m not one to criticize too much, but the writer of this blog is a liar and a moron.

First of all, the two planes in the pictures are clearly different planes.
One is Air Force one, and OF COURSE it has the Flag on it’s tail, it’s the President’s plane.
What the writer fails to mention is that a majority of commercial planes have their logo on the tail, not the flag, and most private jets have nothing at all on the tail.
Nice try geinus.

Comment by Nette60 | 2008-07-21 20:03:04

Air Forc One is used only by the President. Not a racist.

 

Comment by mahaska | 2008-07-21 20:04:19

Well duh, dimwit. He’s on an airfield. clean your glasses and look in the background. Oh my, planes and omg, they are all different.

 

Comment by Zee | 2008-07-21 23:41:53

Then explain why Obama himself named his plane Obama One.

He is sneering at Airforce One and yet WHINING his sniveling ass off about the New Yorker cover.

“I’m actually starting to wonder about the symbol.”

It represents his campaign. Which is why he put it on the jet he uses as transport for the campaign.
Just like any commercial airliner would.
Really not that hard to understand.

 

Comment by Josh from Brooklyn | 2008-07-21 18:59:37

Oh, and John McCain’s plane?

No Flag.

Just the name “John McCain” written vertically on it.

Barky needs to ask Mike Dukakis how well shelving the flag works out for a candidate. And he was ahead by 15 points at this point.

He is the candidate of change. He’s changed his position on every issue, and now he has to redecorate his airplane, also. This guy is the Mitt Romney of the Democratic Party. I guess he feels he has money to burn, with his “new” public financing to go with his “new” politics – reminds me of my kids when they got their first paycheck.

Comment by The Real Hope | 2008-07-21 21:56:46

He’s the candidate of change all righty. He should change his entire being and then leave the planet. He’s an illegal alien as far as I’m concerned. Can we call the Milky Way Alien Police Department and have him seized and arrested for trespassing! First Indonesia, Now America, Next The Milky Way! He will stop at nothing!

 
 

Comment by stacy | 2008-07-21 20:02:34

The plane he was using before starting in March, at least according to this picture:

http://weblogs.baltimoresun.com/news/politics/blog/2008/03/barack_obama_gets_new_campaign.html

seemed to have the American flag on the tail and he did use that plane to travel around the country- so I guess you would say that when he flew in his previous plane with a painted flag, he was appropriately patriotic, but now that his campaign symbol has replaced the flag (it’s probably just an unpatriotic coincidence his campaign seal is red, white and blue, right?), he is no longer a good American?

Usually it has been knob-heads like Karl Rove and the hypocritical right-wing that took part in these character assassinations based on the most narrow, limited and superficial definitions of patriotism- but I guess that’s changed and some on the left have adopted the lame tactic…

 

Comment by Cat in NJ | 2008-07-21 20:03:46

The flag that was removed from the plane’s tail is currently under Bill Ayers’ feet.
And under Josh’s, too.

Comment by Dave A., Is That You Trolling? | 2008-07-21 22:50:57

A troll on this site wanted to know where McCain’s country flag was since international law requires all planes come with country flag. WildChild pointed out where McCain’s American flag is located on his plane.

Where is Obama’s American flag located on his plane?

I just read it cost $300,000 of campaign funds to repaint the plane. WTF has happened to the DNC? It’s strictly the “BarkyObama and BrazileNut Show” now:

“Coordination between the Obama campaign and the House and Senate leadership is so weak that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) – who will chair the Democrats’ convention in August – didn’t know of Obama’s decision to move his final-night acceptance speech from the Pepsi Center to Invesco Field until the campaign announced it on a conference call with reporters.”

Even Oblowme’s corporate logo is unoriginal as he lifted it from Pepsi.

I guess he was afraid that Coke, the Democrat soda’s logo would remind voters that he’s a crackhead.

Oblowme: the corporate brand.

Comment by Dave A., Is That You Trolling? | 2008-07-21 22:32:14

McCain didn’t paint over the American Flag like Obama did. Can you understand the difference?

Maybe you do not understand the difference since you obviously support Obama.

He is 50% white 44% Arabic balance a wee bit Afro. If we started saying i am Dutch American and i want Dutch month people would go crazy.It’s time for eeryone to just say i am American period.
