Obama Refuses to Fly Flag at Haiti Rescue!

During the campaign Obama seemed to have a problem with the American Flag and at first gave flimsy excuses for not wearing a flag pin and was seen at times inattentive when the National Anthem was being played. Finally Obama decided to wear a flag pin, probably at the insistence of his campaign staff. It should not surprise anyone that Obama had little respect for the flag, after all he sat in a congregation for years where his minister, his mentor, damned America and preached nothing but hate for our country. Now we have learned that the Flag in not being flown at our main rescue installation in Haiti. I wasn't aware of this until I came across a great post over at Maggie's Notebook. Its an eye-opening account. It also includes this great Russ Limbaugh clip which is shown below along with an portion of the original post.

Rush Limbaugh Deems Obama a Third World President Video: Refusal to Fly Flag at Haiti Rescue?
Rush Limbaugh says Obama is a third world President. Limbaugh has 'deemed' it so, so it must be so. Did you know we refused to fly the American flag at our Haiti rescue operation? The Army Times is wondering what's going on (quote below). Well, it might have something to do with the fact that we have a Third World President, trying to run the leader (the U.S.) of the Free World. See the video below of Limbaugh discussing our Third World leadership, then go to Hot Air for the rest of the story:

The many nations helping Haiti recover from the devastating earthquake that struck there have set up their own military compunds and fly their flags at the entrances.
France's tricolor, Britain's Union Jace and even Croatia's cost of arms flap in the breeze.

But the country whose contributions dwarf the rest of the world's -- the United States -- has no flag at its main installation near the Port-au-Prince airport.

It Has Always Been The Soldier

Many forget what we owe to the men who wear the uniforms of our armed forces. And some choose to denigrate their service to this nation. Many group demonstratate against these men, some accuse them of crimes. Some great universities will not allow organizations associated with them on campus and some of the left even spit on these returning heros. But it is to these few, to these men, to these heros that we owe everything: Found this poem at Political Wonk

IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE SOLDIER

It is the soldier,
not the President who gives us democracy.

It is the soldier,
not the Congress who takes care of us.

It is the soldier,
not the Reporter who has given us Freedom of Press.

It is the soldier,
not the Poet who has given us Freedom of Speech.

It is the soldier,
not the campus [community] Organizer who
has given us the Freedom to Demonstrate.

It is the soldier,
who salutes the flag;
who serves beneath the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
that allows the protester to burn the flag.
