His supporters bailed him out by having a Veteran give it to him and ask him to wear it.

One of my favorite Rodney Dangerfield lines immediately came to mind after seeing the thread title:

Rodney:"You can fool some of the people some of the time, and jerk the rest off!!"

Unfortunately, he already went “all in” by his prior statements that he does not wear a flag pin. Too little, too late ob juan kanobi.....

Gary Trudeau says he doesn't need it. This isn't the way to endear himself to his rabid anti-American base.

Actually he still refused to wear flag pin. A veteran came up and presented that flag pin to him, so he had to wear.

I only caught this tidbits after posting this article.

Putting it back on will not be the issue ... keeping it on form this point forward will be constantly chronicled.

Billary and Hitlery are fun and watchable — this schmuck is boring and predictable. His main objective is to be too vague and flexible, allowing people think ObaMessiah is what-ever-you-want-him-to-be instead of beingAllYouCanBe!!

Just another loser that will not back up his convictions, in order to win at any cost!

At this point a card board cutout of Jimmy Carter has more appeal than either O or H, but their base, the useful idiots of the socialists, will still vote for them. It's all about change.

The SS Brakobama is sinking. He’s floating all the trial balloons to save his ship.

I doubt many veterans will be taken in by this con artist, the choice of muslims here and around the world.
