What's stranger is the "incredible shrinking women" aspect of that photo. [}:)]

It's like a commercial for good cell phone reception.

Look!  All five bars!

That picture is unfair to Obama because it implies he didn't salute during the pledge of allegiance. In reality, it was during the singing of the national anthem.

Saluting during the song is not expected.

Dead wrong...That only applies when no flag is present.....

This from wikipedia...


People in uniform, including military personnel, fire service and law enforcement officers, are expected to salute or "present arms" during the national anthem from the first note and hold the salute until the last note is played. People not in military or other uniforms are expected to remove their hats and stand with respect and face the flag if present.[

So, it's down to this: was Obama wearing a headdress? Or, at what point in the ceremony was this picture actually taken? A better question: what is the big deal? Are you implying Barack is evil?

BTW, I hear McCain is the Manchurian Candidate and while in POW camp, might have been hypnotized by the Chinese.
