Which Country Does He Pledge His Allegiance To? It Doesn't Seem to Be This One

And it's not the first time.

Who is Obama's chief of protocol? Does he have one yet? Here's the rule, Champ. It's actually pretty simple. During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform should stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart.  -- United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171

Have we ever had a president who either forgot or refused to pay his respects to the flag during the national anthem? Does Obama do this on purpose, or is he this dumb? It's one or the other. He's either deliberately disrespecting the country he represents as president, or he's too dumb to remember to salute the flag. I don't see another option here. I guess one other option might be that he thinks it doesn't matter. You know what, Champ? It matters.

Update: This video is going viral on the internet right now--three people have sent it to me. There's nothing in it that's new, but when you see the clips put together in one video, frankly, it makes you wonder--is this why he won't call Malik Nadal Hasan a radical Islamic terrorist? However, as someone once said, "we shouldn't jump to conclusions." Heh.
