7thsfsniper,

you do know that wearing the whole stars and stripes flag lapel is actually a pretty new thing in american politics, right? not quite wearing one's loyalty on a sleeve, but...

i'd rather judge the person by his positions and what he'll do for america as opposed to indulging in appearances of patriotism. i disagree with his policies, but i do not think he is unpatriotic or disloyal. would your opinion of obama change if he were to wear a suit made of red, white, and blue?
