I question Obama's Patriotism

From The Voice in My Head

Samantha Power resigns from the Obama campaign.

She made the decision to resign after this remark about Hillary Clinton was published:


"She is a monster, too – that is off the record – she is stooping to
anything," Ms Power said, hastily trying to withdraw her remark.



Troubling!

I thought that Speaking Truth to Power was the second highest form of patriotism, behind, of course, Dissent.

Shame on you, Obama.

That level of Speaking Truth to Power patriotism deserved a promotion, if not a Medal of Honor.


[VIMH: What about the flag pin, the hand over his heart, his wife saying she hasn't been proud of her country until now?]
Well, I don't have the manual in front of me right now, but I'm pretty sure those are way down on the list of the highest forms of patriotism.
