>>>Putting your hand over your heart when observing the National Anthem in the presence of the flag shouldnt even be a topic of discussion...It should just be done.<<<


I don't disagree with that but it's still no more than a gesture. How you actually behave as a citizen carries more weight than gestures imo. George Bush ordered 150,000 US troops to a war he and Cheney spent a year and half making up excuses to fight, knowing full well there was no legitimate national security reason to fight it. They also uncovered a covert CIA agent in a tit for tat political game and turned the justice department into a republican goon apparatus.

Assuming both Bush and Cheney put their hands where they belong during the National Anthem, are they more patriotic than Obama in your opinion? And since McCain campaigned hard for Bush in 2004 - aware of his tactics and the bogus war - does that make McCain more patriotic than Obama?
