The Republican smear machine is still working hard to try and attack Obama so they don’t have to face him in November. Currently Jack Kingston, right wing hack from Georgia, is going from show to show discussing Senator Obama’s decision to move away from displays of fake patriotism such as wearing a flag pin on his lapel. Keith Olbermann discussed this decision on his show but unfortunately YouTube deleted the video.
Jack Kingston appeared on Bill Maher’s show and also on MSNBC – without HIS flag lapel pin:
Bill Gillespie, Jack Kingston’s competition in November, finds Jack on the campaign trail and guess what – still no lapel pin! Why does Jack hate America so much? Where’s your lapel pin Jack?
If Jack represents you, vote for Bill Gillespie in November. Now lets see what patriotic Republicans wear flag lapel pins. The list starts about one minute into this video:
So you can see how important flag lapel pins are in choosing your candidate. One other weird piece of news on another Republican. Two men, brother’s-in-law, got in a fight over the presidential election. One was a Democrat and one was a Republican. Of course the Democrat supported Obama. The Republican was so mad he stabbed his brother-in-law with a knife. Who did the Republican support? Hillary Clinton. Republicans just don’t seem passionate about candidates in their own party anymore…
Don’t miss these other Beertap pieces on Republican smears against Obama. Obama and the bigotry of the right and Obama: the flag hating, pledge not saying, Muslim.

The wingnuts are all about symbols of patriotism–not acts of patriotism! BTW: I WAS enjoying my nightly “Summit Great Northern Porter” as I read this post.

Thanks for the mention on your blog! Jack should not be spending the taxpayers time campaigning for a Presidential candidate. He should be working on issues and projects that effect South Georgia. Pass the word around about my candidacy. Visit my website to donate and sign up to volunteer: http://www.billforgeorgia.com. I appreciate your support!

Hey Boomer! Nothing like a good beer and politics. I must admit I skipped the beer tonight and went straight to the Texas Margaritas at the Mexican restaurant down the road.
Bill, do us all a favor and beat Jack Kingston in November. I don’t live anywhere near your area otherwise I would come down and work for your campaign. Good luck and keep us up to date!

I say we petition to have them all wear uniforms. All Representatives regardless of party affiliations Anyone with me…it is a waste of time and once again steers the American people away from the real issues and challenges facing our states and country.
