What’s missing from this picture?
US Republican presidential candidate Senator John McCain (R-AZ) speaks during a visit in Charlotte, North Carolina, May 5, 2008
Why, Sen. McCain’s patriotism of course!
Isn’t it funny that just this morning local right-wing radio talk show hosts were still trying to drum up outrage about Barack Obama not wearing a flag pin while completely ignoring the fact that their own candidate hasn’t worn one either for the last several weeks?
The Selective Outrage Express rolls on.

I live in the Washington Heights neighborhood of Milwaukee, WI with my wife Jen, our daughter Emerson, and son Carter.
Yeah, don’t question Obamba’s patriotism just because he doesn’t wear a flag pin … there are plenty of other reasons to believe he hates America.
why not send jay an email?
He hates America? Really? That’s interesting. And quite absurd.
Anyways, instead of trying to redirect, what’s up with McCain not wearing a flag pin? I mean, it’s been at least a week since he has after all. If Obama is such a hater of American because of that singular display or lack thereof, why isn’t John McCain in your opinion?
Bill, already done my friend.
Hates America? Probably not (although his wife does – or did, before her husband starting running for president. And don’t forget his “advisor” for 20 years…..) Absurd? Maybe. The worst candidate for President of the United States? Absolutely!
He hates America? …. And quite absurd.
Mark it down, boys and girls. It’ll all come out in the wash.
Birds of feather ….
if someone really hates America, they why would they spend over a year traveling from coast to coast trying to become its leader? so he can destroy it? absurd.
Well, Erik, if you’d have thought this through, you’d know that Barack Obama is a racist Islamic operative in disguise, whose sole purpose in life is to infiltrate the American government at the highest level in a brazen attempt to ultimately establish a North American caliphate and usher in the destruction of all good Christian Americans. It’s so obvious. I mean, his middle name is Hussein and sometimes he doesn’t put hand to heart during the national anthem! Worse yet, Obama’s affiliation with Wright makes it clear that he wants to see a violent black uprising so he can swim in the blood of white America. Does he say all this openly? No, but you just gotta read between the lines. After all, what American WOULDN’T want to go down in history as the most despised president of all time?
Or, as the touch of sarcasm in your comment clearly implies, this is all a bunch of bullshit. Great point.
