Obama Removes American Flag from Campaign Plane

[painretreat]

i just want to find some weed, the rest of the USA's problems can take a back seat. Cause I am at the wheel and I'm getting distracted..

I HEAR YOU BRO--YOU ARE DESPERATE---You need reasonably priced mmj, like the rest of us and growing isn't an overnight issue!! But, I am not sure I'd vote for the man based on that alone. However, if you cannot find any other issues that concern you--vote for the one that is closest to your heart and your pain. I so understand.

I stopped crawling in this politic section, cause: I still think we have no choice! I don't think it is the removal of the flag, as the behavior that some are upset with.

In fact, I am not sure 'change' is a new concept!! Heard it all my life!

I think birdgirl and rebgirl pretty much got to the point. These guys are narcissistic--Just ask Edwards!!! Damn, I liked him the best-on the Dem side! These guys are running for SService, maid service and basically having their butts wiped with American Tax dollars the rest of their lives and companions (of all kinds). If you never had to life a finger, except to sign a paper or read a speech the rest of your life, we all might want the job. But there is more to it.

If we can grow pot in the White House, I'd go for that! But, would it make a difference in my vote? It may come down to that, since they are both begining to take the same stand on just about everything!!

I keep getting more and more frustrated with this whole thing! I see major difference's and then I hear them both take the same stance for off-shore oil drilling, yep--they are changing, their minds--daily! Odd, the flip-flop ads aren't on T.V. yet!

I remain, undecided and frustrated with this election. It isn't my first time in almost several decades of voting. I take pride in my selection and voting as an American Citizen and feel it is my privilege and right! I would just like to see some real issues and i do not plan on buying Obama's budget book, either! I prefer pot growing books!

I hate to say such a thing, but I do not think, in my life time, I have ever seen the economy and people so wrapped up in it with a war at the same time! Viet Nam, made voting easy! Different war, different time and we could have a little civil disobedience to let our elected officials understand us! Now, we just go to jail!

I'd really like to know what they plan on doing with all the policies that got fucked up with Bush in office! Nat'l debt, taxes, education (which USA ain't doing so good in the world of math), medical care, elderly care, care of the homeless and yes, how they feel about pot! But, with don't ask don't say, or whatever it was. I think pot will fall there! If the Gov't thought that legalizing pot like alcohol--would decreas what Medicare sparingly spends on medication, they might legalize it; more would use it and pay out of the pocket or grow. Then, the medication bill would go down. At least, for those without heart problems (and other contraindications).

I guess if Obama marched to the back of a plane, picked up a flag and tossed it out a window, I might decide how I would vote! But, I think the re-model team did it. Now, half a million dollars to remodel--oooh!!! He is a young man, he could rough it a little to make a statement, if he desired! Like old Gov. Brown in CA did. He rented an apt. (at his own expense and drove a vw) and never lived in the Gov't mansion! I'd like a pres. like that! Our budget was better and times were good!

I do not have any answers, and I guess I'd better not tok and post!:jointsmile:

What a big fuss because Obama removed the usa flag from his plane...
Some of Bushs acts prompted thousand of people to burn, tear apart, and spit on usa flags around the world... and yet he was re-elected... :wtf:
So, which one did more damage to the so-loved flag of yours?

You guys are not getting it. Its not his removal of the flag that is important, but the substitution of the flag for his personal propaganda symbol.

Well... if you analize the deeds of most (if not all) presidents, you will find that they work more for themselves (or for the interests of a group they pertain) than for the benefit of the nation.
So, at least Obama is showing it from the start... better than if he waited until be at the white house to show his true intentions, as others would do.

So by your logic.. we should vote for the guy who we know is going to screw us over.. because he's not trying to hide it? That makes no sense.

Not sure if you have been keeping up with the United States election but Obama has about 20 positions on each issue depending on what crowd he's speaking to that day. If that's not trying to hide his true intentions then I don't know what is.

Um, McCain has his own "propaganda" symbol on the tail of the plane as well.

Only different is McCain has a little American flag while Obama has none.

[Chong Version 2.0]

McCain is a gibbering retard. That's all you need to know.

The supposed "news article" this is based on is not journalism. It is a gross mixture of typos, editorial, facts, supposed fact, and slander. I have taken courses in Journalism and i would have failed had i turned something like this in. Truly made me laugh.

Also to make comparisons to Hitler and Obama, because of their logos? WTF man? Thats rude and disrespectful. Learn your history, discuss it intelligently. Maybe instead of arguing over NOTHING, write a letter to someone in office expressing your thoughts on Cannabis...there's an idea. BE THE CHANGE

Good bye

Known Superbig Egos
Trump in business,
Mohamud Ali in Sports, (Super Egos know "I am the Greatest!")
the list would be endless.
Who could run for President without one? (a superego)

And as for the ums and ahs of Obama,
they mean he has a IQ of a normal person and does not have pat answers (the pauses indicate taking time to think). Look at a Dan Quale speech, not a um or ah...anywhere.....he was a genius.

Not saying i am for either candidate...this year when we need a strong leader, i see no clear cut choices. To bad we can not take some from one and some from the other. (is sad because i am a staunch Democrat and I am torn this election)
side note, looks like florida is blowing away....again.

(another side note.....heard last night on the news that McCain may announce that he will have no intention of seeking another term...if elected this time....if that is put in writing .......and sworn to on a stack of text books....and makes him not take special interest money to get elected for a second term....i would think more ....again and feel torn.)

Best wishes to all those in Florida and the Keys. :thumbsup:

Even with the stack of text, the writing, etc....I'd still take it for what it is, the promise from a politician. Not much to hang your hat on.

Have a good one!:s4:
