It should be pointed out that the Russian National Anthem is the same tune as the old Soviet Anthem. They got rid of the old anthem when the EVIL EMPIRE collapsed, but the Chekist Vladimir Putin brought the old anthem back and just changed the lyrics.

So to Obama, the Russian anthem is probably one of the "prettiest sounds on Earth," after the muslim call to prayer of course.

Never, in the history of this nation have we had such a POS for POTUS.

[jakerobins]

Of course he does...I’m sure his buddies like Ayers would never stomp on a Hammer/Sickle flag....Just the way they were “Educated” Brain Washed into the Leftist Socialist way of thinking.. Comrade!! He probably has “Back in the USSR” in his IPOD as well...and will start wearing one of the stylish Mao/Hillary outfits...LOL

It is actually a pretty rousing melody, to be honest. But I don't think he'll make the mistake of groping his crotch during the Star-Spangled Banner again. I certainly hope he isn't that dense.

Since obozo is a marxist, he did what any marxist-loyal person would do.

Frankly, 'The Internationale' **is** a better tune than 'To Anacreon in Heaven', the tune to which Key's Defense of Fort McHenry' was set, and later became our anthem.

And 'O, Canada' is a far better tune than ours, too.

Someone should inform Obama that you don’t put your hand over your heart when the HOST NATION’S ANTHEM IS PLAYED. HOW STUPID IS THIS GUY?

Nothing new or surprising here.....

MOTS!

I guessing that most likely they were playing the American national anthem when picture #1 was taken. Maybe someone can find a video.

[G8 Diplomat]

He also did so for the Saudi anthem when he was in Riyadh.

[DogBarkTree]

I would like to get confirm on whether or not Obama did this. Does anyone know of any video of the event? This would seem easy to find but nothing turned up in my searches.

[Cheetahcat]

Garbage Rat Garbage nothing more!!!!!!!!!

Here is a video of the incident which does appear to be at the Russian unknown soldier tomb. Obama places his hand over his heart as the American National Anthem begins at about 1:18.

Thanks Tailgunner Joe.

"Relax, the Islamic call to evening prayer, in Arabic, is *still* the prettiest sound on Earth."

[3niner]

Maybe he thought it was the US Anthem. You can’t expect him to know these things.

[Dubya-M-DeesWent2SyriaStupid!]

They HAD to be playing our anthem.

[Right Wing Assault]

The strange thing about obi-one not having his hand over his heart is that he does appear to be singing our National Anthem. Check out the video. It’s a bit blurry.

It is most noticeable from “oh, say does... “ to the end.
