Careless or Uncaring?

While I am not an Obama fan, I know for myself, sometimes these pins are hard to get on straight. Unless he has his mother/wife/daughter/press secretary dress him, it’s not always easy to get a pin on straight. I have a collection of pins (including various flag pins) and they often put the back part on in a strange way or hard to handle. After a while you just give up, and sometimes the pin ends up kind of slanted or not exactly where you wanted it placed on the lapel or jacket. As much as I would like to call him out (and I do), in my opinion, I would have to give him a pass on this one. I am curious to hear what others will say about it.

“Careless or uncaring”?

Answer = yes.

Bronwyn,

I am sure I can get really more bothered by other things involving the POTUS. But I think the thing is that once he starts grating on a person, EVERYTHING about him grates.

It clearly shows a lack of interest in the flag, as if he put in on in a huff (not really wanting to–because I remember the flap over his not doing it before). He’s a spoiled, lazy child.

That’s the SINKING SHIP symbol. Appropriate for it to be on Obama’s chest in that position.

Can’t stand Obama but can’t get worked up over this. I’ve had pins rotate on me before even though they were straight when I started the day. There’s more than enough other stuff to criticize 0 about. If anybody saw today’s USA Today–2 big headlines:
http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2009-10-21-WMD-threat_N.htm
Report: White House neglecting bioterrorism
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is working hard to curb nuclear threats but failing to address the more urgent and immediate threat of biological terrorism, a bipartisan commission created by Congress is reporting today.

Watchdog excoriates execution of TARP
A Treasury Department watchdog is warning that a key $700 billion bailout program has damaged the government’s credibility, won’t earn taxpayers all their money back and has done little to change a culture of recklessness on Wall Street.

Not sure I see the outrage here. Pick your battles – this isn’t one of them.

I suspect the flag has a pointed pin with a round clasp type thing that holds it on. The flag could have twisted, or he was in a hurry…either way, as much as I disagree with his policies, I’m going to cut Obama some slack on this one.

I am shocked he even wore it. Like he really cares about this country.

Nice! I assume you also posted a pic of GWB desecrating an American flag with his signature?

Of course you didn’t!

Drew

maybe he got dressed in the dark

Why not ask Michelle to do her wifely duty as the First Lady by assisting her man dress up properly. Is she not a fashion “icon” as labeled by her media fans? Furhermore, with the huge entourage of staff she has , she can delegate one or two to do this job.Or is it just plain LAZY !More so: careless & uncaring. Proof??? top priority : continuous political campaigning at taxpayers expense while domestic issues are tabled. Foreign problems ?? leave that to Hillary to handle while he enjoys to be a junketeer.

As much as I dislike him, I’d have to let this one slide…

There’s too many other fish (whales, sharks?) to fry.

Many people are wearing theirs upside down these days (signal of distress).

Finally I can give BO some credit.
At least he is now wearing the flag pin, rather than pouting about it like a five year old.
His valet needs a refresher course however.

The Obama campaign “O” symbol shows the muslim crescent moon rising over the fallen American flag.

It’s the cumulative effect of how he treats important symbols of America. We know he hates the country and regular Americans. Guess he feels he doesn’t have to hide those feelings anymore.

Sorry, off topic for a bit. But does anyone know what happened to jbjd? His/her wordpress has been silent for some time now and I’m getting a bit worried.

Where’s the Mao flag?

Actually considering we have to see that fecking stupid ‘O’ logo plastered on everything, (kind of like hitler and his swastikas), I am surprised he doesn;t wear a pin of that instead of the American flag!

…hell! I bet he is wearing tity-whitys with that silly ‘O’ logo all over them… He is juvenile enough…

The sinking ship (I hope) analogy is appropriate and funny, but how much of Americana will go down with him? Obama – how could we have done this to our country? Democrats should reconsider their party affiliation. He didn’t do this by himself.

This suggests a new children’s party game: Pin the Flag on the POTUS.

Que Rediculo!

Wow! Nowhere else on the net can you see such venom, richly deserved, for the Messiah, and his ‘Meshitelle’, and delivered with such precision and passion. The pin, Mao, the Noble Prize, Islam, ‘Regular Americans’, his underwear…

He is good justification to raise the voting age to 26, prevent government employees from voting, with the one exception for those who serve,

I guess we’re supposed to deduct a point for a crooked lapel flag.

But I’ll give Obama two points back for going after bonuses to CEOs of bail-out corporations who thumbed their noses at the taxpayers, and another two points for ending the federal prosecution (and persecution) of medical marijuana distributors who are in total compliance with their respective state laws.

He’s sitting there so stoned out of his mind he can’t keep his eyes open. That must be some good afgani weed he’s been smoking.
