As long as we're talking about lapel pins...

When they brought this lapel pin business up last night as some kind of whether-or-not-you-are-a-patriotic-American sign, Obama was forced to defend himself.
But no one mentioned that Hillary wore no flag pin.
I went back into the web and looked at Hillary in pictures and saw what appeared to be a Senate member ID pin on a lapel in one picture - not an American flag - and in the majority of pictures found no flag pin.
Then I did a Google search on John McCain photos. Guess what? No flag pins.
Gibson and Stephanopoulos must not have noticed these other candidates. And, of course, they were not wearing flag pins either.
Oh the UnAmericanism of it all!

I wrote a post about how Barack is trying to be a symbolic President, ironically through the NOT using symbols. Read here.
It maybe be a sad, possibly insulting fact but Americans like being patronised. Voters in general like being patronised. Too harsh?
