In fairness to Obama, is it possible the song hadn’t started yet?
And, the other people in the picture?
The caption of the image, from “Time” magazine, states that it was taken during the National Anthem.
While that's possible, there's a note at the linked article regarding the photo's caption:
NOTE: The original version of this item, based on a reader submission, stated that the photo was apparently taken during the Pledge of Allegiance. I've now located the original "Time" image, whose caption states that it was taken during the National Anthem.
We know it hadn’t started yet because he would have his hands over his ears.
You can be “fair” to the SOB if you wish but I know my enemy—and the enemy of my son and his buddies serving in Iraq for a second tour, an EXTENDED tour I might add.
These politicians are worthless POS and I would gladly pay a fine and kick their a$$e$. I kid you not. I think there’s lots of folks with me on this but I don’t care if I was the only one in the bunch that feels like this.
I flamed a TX Repub party caller trying to mooch money from me, he sounded desperate, said that they’re in trouble. I told him that I know for a fact that they are in their death throes, until they find some leadership with gonads it will get worse. I said I don’t support losers, I’ll spend my money on various wounded soldier’s groups instead, you know, people who walk the walk.
....maybe his brain was playing “Puff the magic Negro...” rather than hearing the National Anthem. At least he is honest about his feelings towards his country Hillary just tells you anything you want to hear .a serial liar.
Or is it possible that if he becomes president the Muslim in him will come out for all to see??
Or he genuinely forgot. Or the anthem just ended and he was the first to put his hand down. But I don't think I'm going to give him a pass.
He'll probably respond with 'I was mis-treated when I was a kid.' Or, 'What about the photographer? Why should he be immune from criticism?' Or, 'I had a terrible itch I had to attend to.'
In fairness to fairness, neither has Obama-mama.
