Saluting The American Flag Optional?

No Flag Pin On The Lapel. No Salute Or Hand Over The Heart For The National Anthem!


From the one picture speaks 1,000 words department, here are 2,000. Just a little food for thought on a Friday afternoon. The picture on top is Memorial Day this year, and the one below is during the Presidential campaign. Unless the music is over and the others on the podium are frozen in position, President Obama was just not inspired to show his respect for the American flag and by extension the Country. Now there is different protocol for the Pledge of Allegiance and the National Anthem, but not for a President. And apparently not for the others he is standing with.

This our Commander-in-Chief who professes love of country and love for the troops. Is this just another administration example of rhetoric over reality? Is this a red flag? Just some food for thought for Friday Happy Hour.

Don't necessarily agree with the second part, but your first thoughts could potentially have some real merit. Thanks.
