2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: FAIL: North Carolina GOP Mocks Tim Kaine For Lapel Pin Honoring His U.S. Marine Son [View all]wishstar
(5,268 posts)35. I have a Repub NC neighbor who still swears Obama has never worn a flag lapel pin
She is so brainwashed by right wing websites/Facebook/emails and refusal to look at Obama on TV that she will never be convinced he has ever worn a US flag pin- which he has for many years after that Vet gave him one. So I am sure she will now be ranting about Kaine being Un-American too. No amount of correction and truth telling ever seems to get through
She, like many right wingers I know who hate Dems and constantly stir up with their button-pushing irrational ranting, is an otherwise reasonably intelligent person with a beautiful home and yard and expensive cars who attends a conservative church.

OP
Good point. Republicans know nothing about having children serve in the military.

Apparently North Carolina requires that your attention to details matches the level you had at birth

The North Carolina GOP made that law and expects everyone else to follow it.
