let the rediculousness commence...
I recently received the following email entitled 'it's the beginning of the end' and went to tell how barack obama has refurbished his campaign airline and, horrors of horrors!, he removed the american flag which was on the tail of the aircraft. the email went on to claim: 'according to snopes.com it's true!' which was followed by this:
'Barack Hussein Obama once again proves he hates America and all she stands for! First it was the lapel flag pin, then it was the not holding his hand over his heart, during the playing of the National Anthem, and NOW he has removed the American Flag from his aircraft!
Time and time again, both Obama and his wife, Michelle show that they are NOT PROUD of America, the very country they want to RUN!!
America, PLEASE WAKE UP!! If Obama gets into office he is going to hand America over to our enemies on a silver platter!!
Barack Obama rec ently finished a $500,000 total overhaul of his 757. And as part of the new design, he decided to remove the American flag from the tail. What American running for President of the United States would remove the symbol of his country? And worse, he replaced the flag with a symbol of himself.
This is not the same as "forgetting" to put your hand over your heart during the national anthem. It is not even the same as wearing or not wearing an American flag lapel pin. It is a conscious, expensive decision to emphasize the importance of self over country.
It is the very essence of arrogance, hubris, and, yes, megalomania.
Well folks. Here you go. This is what we have to look forward too if we as true Americans don't raise our heads and open our eyes.'
this is just fear mongering and pure ignorance.
if anyone took time to read the article at snopes.com, they would find that yes, he refurbished his 757 and put his campaign logo on the tail. the plane still bears the american flag on the fuselage. also, had anyone bothered to read the article at snopes.com, they would see that john mccain doesn’t have a huge american flag emblazoned on his plane tail. and notice that there is NO american flag anywhere on his? hmmmm... where is the outcry for that? what about the fact that mccain has his logo on his plane... a symbol of himself!!!
please stop the stupid train!
bottom line. america is afraid of change. instead of wanting something better for ourselves and our country in the long term, we continue to cling to the past. sure change will be painful for a while... any change is. but if you were given 3 months to live unless you changed your lifestyle, wouldn’t you at least make the effort? even if it meant that there would be some discomfort?
if half the effort that goes into bashing change were put to better more constructive use, we would have a better economy, no world hunger, no war, and energy independence.
don’t take anything you get in email at face value. dig, question, investigate. make your own informed decisions instead of parroting the ideas that are fed to you.
