Political opinions are not a good subject for the Elecraft Reflector. Send
them to your buddies but not directly to a reflector. Jim K4JAF

Subject: [Elecraft] Do you believe this guy?
The following is a narrative taken from Sunday Morning's televised
'Meet The Press'. The author is employed by none other than the
Washington Post!!
From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, Televised 'Meet the
Press' Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.
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 Obama 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. Or, at
the very least, 'Stand and Face It'.
Senator Obama replied:
'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived
as taking sides'. 'There are a lot of people in the world to whom the
American flag is a symbol of oppression.'
'The anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the
bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing.'
ARE YOU READY FOR THIS???
Obama said: 'The National Anthem 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. In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National
Anthem as well as '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 waring
people, conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam where peace prevails -
- - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist 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 which is WHY my Wife disrespects the Flag and she and I have
attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past'.
'Of course now, I have found myself about to become the
President of the United States and I have put my hatred aside. I will
use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new
path. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First black
Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of
America'
WHAAAAAAAT the Hell is that!!!
Yes, you read it right.
This could possibly be our next President.
I, for one, am speechless!!!
Dale Lindsborg,
Washington Post
HOW FAST CAN YOU FORWARD THIS TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW???
