I hardly keep up with any of this political crap, but someone posted this earlier and was wondering if he really said this stuff. Sorry if the formatting came out all shitty. Tried to clean it up but it was taken from a Myspace bulletin, so go figure. Anyway....


The following is a narrative taken from Sunday Morning's televised
'Meet The Press' and the author is employed by none other than the Washington Post!! Yeah......the Washington Post of New York and Los Angeles Times fame!! Must say that I'm dually impressed...................


From Sunday's Televised 'Meet the Press' Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag. Obama Explains National Anthem Stance

Sun, 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain why he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.

The General also stated to the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171... During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. At the very least, 'Stand and Face It'

Senator Obama Live on Sunday states, 'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides, Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd like to Teach the World to Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute It.

'We should consider to reinvent our National Anthem as well as to redesign our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we as a Nation of warring people, should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace prevails. Perhaps a state or period of mutual concord between our governments.

When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation have placed upon the
nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the Flag for
many personal reasons. Together she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past, many years ago. She has her views and I
have mine'. Of course now, I have found myself about to become the
President of the United States and I have put aside my hatred. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path of hope.

My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First Family.

Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America.


WHAAAAAAAT the Hell !!!

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you heard it right. This could possibly be
our next President.

I, for one, am speechless.

Figured as much. The poster started it with "I looked it up and it's true!!!!!" so I figured it was bullshit, but who the fuck knows these days.

Vince McMahon '08 imho.

Cool fucking song. Probably the best Coke commercial song ever used.
