Look, I don't care whether any of you support Obama or not but you should look beyond the email chains your ignorant hick friends send you and check your facts.
1) He never disrespected the flag during the pledge of allegiance. Tha photo/video was taken during the singing of the National Anthem. Check it yourself, asses! Now, I don't always place my hand over my heart during the singing of our national Anthem, and if you watch professional sports you'll see that a large portion of our population does not as well. If you watch the video he is standing @ attention respectfully listening to the singer, which is what I and many other Americans do during the Star Spangled Banner. Nothing wrong w/ that.
2) He doesn't wear a pin because he does not agree w/ our President's policies on the war and saw the pin as a way to hide behind patriotism instead of speaking your mind. See here: http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=3690000
