The flag pin is back on the lapel of Illinois Sen. Barack Obama. No, really. AFTER PHOTO Look very closely at the left coat lapel of Illinois senator and Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama speaking in Pennsylvania Tuesday There's the famous flag pin back on his chestLook closely at his left lapel in this photo from MSNBC on Tuesday. You may recall Obama removed the lapel flag pin last fall as something of a gesture of independence if you're an Obama fan -- or an act of defiant antiwar non-patriotism if you're not.

If true (ie: not photoshopped), then watch for his campaign to engineer an opportunity to have his hand over heart near the flag. With lots of cameras around.

He said in the debate it was given to him by a differently-abled vet before his speech.
I’d like to see if that was a lie.

He has questions planted all the time, I’ll bet giving him that pin was planned.

This is what a known pirate would do on the high seas while approaching a target.
Don’t let him on board.

Obama will come across as phony once again. Only after being criticized for being unpatriotic has he decided to woo Pennsylvanians who have lost faith in him, by wearing a symbol that he said was not important when expressing his love for this nation.
To: stickman20089
What a cynical piece of...work...that guy is.
Actually, both Dem candidates, and their spouses, fairly scream “phony-baloney, plastic banana, good-time rock‘n’roll”.

He said in the debate it was given to him by a differently-abled vet before his speech. I would bet that it's true; and that it was staged with the vet being "put up to it" before hand. (Sort of like Hillary's listening tours and impromptu audience questions.)
