As a reader noticed, Obama was sporting the much-debated flag pin for his speech to veterans today.

Animal House is one of the great films of all times. It teaches so many important lessons. Thanks.

Trudeau is as despicable a leftist as any out there.

At least he has more class than Ted Rall.

Talk about damning with faint praise.

I gotta tell you I got a little creeped out when I was making it.

In Photoshop, I took the current image of Obama, rotated it slightly, removed the color, added noise and cut him out of the background he was in.

When I resized his face to match Guevara by making the layer semitransparent so I could see both of their eyes... it was very weird how closely they matched up.

This guy has no shame!

The man shows that he’s nothing but the nauseatingly pandering opportunist that he is. I suppose we’ll all be soon seeing his left hand over his heart during the next performance of the Star Spangled Banner, his wife parroting about how great a country this is and espousing some I Love America theme she’s been told to say at her next public appearance.

I have seen this post several times now and think as the campaign progresses he really does feel superior to ALL OF US.

It is a great reminder.

Love to see it each time!

Too late, Obama!

When I heard this puke said all this crap about why he didn’t wear the lapel pin, I thought of the pin I wear on my lapel. It’s not a flag, it’s the “U.S.” pin that I used to wear on my Air Force dress uniform. I’d love to have this punk tell me that it’s not a sign of true patriotism.

Thanks george76. I'm sure the media will find someone from the .1 per cent group who will claim A) to be a veteran and B) to be completely unoffended by the gun-totin' flag-wavin' immigrant-hatin' bitter rural honkies remark.
