If Obama had come into your kids classroom for a photo op, would you have been mad if YOUR kid opted out?
No.
Remember in Band of Brothers, “We Salute the Rank, not the Man”?
It’s the same, We respect the Office, not the Man.
I agree, that is just the question I was asking myself.
Would some of the Freepers posting in this topic have been proud to be photographed with Obama?
I would have crossed the street to get away from him, left my dinner untasted and gone out into the snow without a coat and been glad to have escaped giving him countenance.
