This is an internet myth, and there is NO truth to it. There are many photos and videos online of the president facing the flag and saluting it, as any American citizen does. Sadly, some of his political enemies have spread untrue stories about how he supposedly doesn't respect the flag, but these claims are false.
Barack Obama put the American Flag on top of the White House...........
No, he does not. This is an internet myth, spread by his political opponents, and there is no evidence to support it. Mr. Obama has always shown respect for the flag.
YES! They exist! They have a new president named Barack obama! Their flag has 50 stars!
No, contrary to internet myths, they never did. There is no reason why they ever would, since they love this country and respect the flag.
You can't find it because it's a myth. It never happened. Barack Obama was not on Meet the Press in September 2008, and he never said anything about the flag on that show or any other. The flag myth is a false story, circulated by his political enemies. There is no evidence that Mr. Obama ever went on any talk show and insulted the flag. Further, when Barack Obama did appear on Meet the Press, in December 2008 (for his first interview as president), he never discussed anything about the flag, nor was he asked any questions about that subject.
No, there is no evidence of it. Both the president and first lady love this country, respect the flag, and would never attend such an event.
The Tea Party and the military were bonded by this flag so President Barack Obama turned aside the flag to break the bond. Obama has no power to "break the bond" of the Gadsden Flag, although some leftist organizations have tried, and this flag is a part of our history and is not offensive to Americans that love America.
The president has always shown respect to the flag. There are many internet myths that say he won't salute the flag, but these claims are false. You can easily find photos or videos online showing him saluting the flag, and he has always done so.
Of course. There are some internet myths that have circulated for the past ten years that claim he does not salute the flag, but these claims are false. There are many pictures and videos of him saluting the flag. These false stories are based on the myth that Mr. Obama is not an American citizen-- but he was in fact born in the United States and has always recited the pledge of allegiance during ceremonial events.
No evidence is found of that. Please see the related question below which may relate to your question and provide additional information.
No. There was a hoax email about this. For details see the related question below. He was on Meet the Press on 12/7, though. On that date, December 7, 2008, newly elected President Obama was interviewed by Tom Brokaw, but no discussion of a stance on the American flag was a part of the December interview.
The guests were economist Thomas Friedman and Senator Joseph Biden. Barack Obama was NOT on the program, nor did he appear and insult the flag-- this is an internet myth.
