Obama's disdain for the National Anthem is nothing new. So perhaps it won't bother you that he canceled the anthem at his political rally in order to free up more time for yet another worshipful speaker to sing his praises.

eh, patriotism is only shown on April 15th....
April 15th? I thought he celebrated May 1
That “folksy” and “jingoistic” America stuff is not for America-hating elitists.
Communist band opens for Obama
'How many of 75,000 came to hear music?'
A hip rock band that features the Soviet national anthem and communist-inspired lyrics was on stage to open for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama at his record-breaking Portland, Ore., rally that attracted 75,000.
The Decemberists, a Portland-based group with a large local following, also closed the May 18 event.
The Decemberists typically begin their concerts with a Russian-language recording of the USSR's national anthem.
A YouTube video shows the Decemberists beginning an April 31, 2007, concert at Messiah College in Grantham, Pa., with the anthem.
"Decemberists" refers to an uprising at Senate Square in St. Petersburg Dec. 14, 1825, when a group of Russian army officers led about 3,000 soldiers in protest as Nicholas I assumed the throne, after Czar Alexander died without an heir.
The Decemberists have posed for publicity photos in period Russian costumes with the red flag of the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917 waving behind them.

The Soviet National Anthem / Гимн СССР
English translation (of the 1977 version)
Unbreakable Union of freeborn Republics,
Great Russia has welded forever to stand.
Created in struggle by will of the people,
United and mighty, our Soviet land!
Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!
Through tempests the sunrays of freedom have cheered us,
Along the new path where great Lenin did lead.
To a righteous cause he raised up the peoples,
Inspired them to labour and valourous deed.
Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!
In the victory of Communism's immortal ideal,
We see the future of our dear land.
And to her fluttering scarlet banner,
Selflessly true we always shall stand!
Sing to the Motherland, home of the free,
Bulwark of peoples in brotherhood strong.
O Party of Lenin, the strength of the people,
To Communism's triumph lead us on!

I don’t really blame him.
If I were a Muslim Marxist I probably wouldn’t like the song either.

gosh, what syntax!
this article is a joke, right?
Biden seems to think so. Where do these cockroaches come from? Don't answer that. They come from idiots that want something for nothing.
‘Does Barack Obama love America?’, Gov. Palin was asked today.
You think she gave the right answer?
Great home page. Thanks for putting so much time and work into assembling that dossier.
gosh, what syntax!
Barack Obama, from Dreams from My Father, Three Rivers Press, New York, Revised Edition, 2004, ISBN 1-4000-8277-3, p. 76-7:
"But by the time I met Frank [Frank Marshall Davis] he must have been pushing eighty, with a big, dewlapped face and an ill-kempt gray Afro that made him look like an old, shaggy-maned lion. He would read us his poetry whenever we stopped by his house, sharing whiskey with Gramps out of an emptied jelly jar."

Obamas Red Mentor Praised Red Army
AIM Report | By Cliff Kincaid | April 30, 2008
Barack Obamas childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Moscow-controlled Communist Party USA, wrote a poem dedicated to the Soviet Red Army. Smash on, victory-eating Red Army, he declared. He also wrote poems attacking traditional Christianity and the work of Christian missionaries.
The Red Army poem goes beyond hoping for the communists to beat the Nazis in World War II and hails the Soviet revolution. It says:
Show the marveling multitudes
Americans, British, all your allied brothers
How strong you are
How great you are
How your young tree of new unity
Planted twenty-five years ago
Bears today the golden fruit of victory!

Thanks FRiend. I appreciate that.
a “dewlapped face” no less,
and “ill-kempt gray afro”
oh boy.
Here is future of our country!!

Dr Ijaz Mian (at Derby’s Ahl-e-Hadith mosque): “Being a Muslim, you have to fix a target.
There will be no House of Commons. From that White House to this Black House, we know we have to dismantle it. Muslims must grow in strength. . . then take over.
If you don’t come for prayer, we will arrest you. But if you still don’t, then... you will be killed.”
this article is a joke, right?
Remember, Prime minister and Premier Vladimir Putin of Russia has endorsed Obama.
I went to the McCain-Palin Rally in Virginia Beach on Columbus Day and was totally blown away when Thelma Drake opened the rally with a prayer. I wasn’t expecting it, although I go to church three times a week and I’m used to praying corporately, it was refreshing and awe inspiring to see everyone at the rally paying homage to the creator. I’m certain that by the demonstrated conduct of the Obama camp throughout this campaign, just that one simple act of prayer would never be seen at an Obama rally. Seeing the 12,000+ crowd with their heads bowed in prayer, and the AMEN that reverberated throughout the Convention Center afterwards made my heart leap, made me proud to be a conservative American, and reaffirmed to me that John McCain and Sarah Palin were destined to be our next leaders. It felt that right.
Since when did they ever play the national anthem at a nobama rally?

The Obamessiahs deep humility shines through in his new seal

Take a look at the throne that Obama has installed on his plane, and then notice the embroidery on is chair.

Obama's Throne
Now look closely at the throne, and notice it does not say "For President", but "President".

This is getting really freaky. Dear Leader gets 15 page spread in 2008 children's textbooks. This isn't teaching, it's indoctrination!
a dewlapped face no less,
and ill-kempt gray afro
Obama’s half black, so he’s allowed.
Under the new rules of America, any of us white folk would be accused of being racist with comments like these.
ETL,
Tell me “ARE WE THE ONLY PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY WITH OUR EYES OPEN?”
This isnt’ surprising, but it still reflects badly on Senator Obama. I hope someone makes a campaign commercial about it.
