Did Josh Howard and Obama not put their hand over their heart during the National Anthem b/c of black power?
In a video posted recently on YouTube, Howard was shown at a charity flag football game. As the national anthem plays in the background, Howard approaches a camera and says: “‘The Star Spangled Banner’ is going on right now. I don’t even celebrate that (expletive). I’m black.”

Race has nothing to do with why either person doesn’t place their hand over their heart.
Neither person loves their country for varying reasons.
And for those of you that don’t think you should place your hand over your heart, read the U.S. Code about it here:
VA for OBAMA! &#

The problem with your question is that you are trying to say that they are the only two people in the whole country that do not salute the flag and also trying to connect them because they are black.

And so, because one black person said that, Obama must believe the same thing?
Interesting reasoning. Do you think all white people are members of the KKK? Why not? Same reasoning.

I also noticed, in the Yahoo article, there was no mention that Howard said at the end that he is voting for Obama. Convenient and not shocking at all.

He’s a douche bag… but who cares.
Do you think Obama pulls the strings of anyone who speaks his name?
Did McCain have anything to do with that nut who killed those people in a church because he said they were liberal?
Use your critical thinking skills please.

You must not live, work, play, or come in contact with any black people what-so-ever, so I won’t blame you for your ignorance.

You do realize that it is not necessary to place your hand over your heart during the national anthem, right? You are confusing it with saluting the flag during the Pledge of Allegiance. By the way, Michael Phelps also did not put his hand over his heart during the national anthem, didnt hear Repubs complaining about him…

Does it really matter, believe it or not people are not connected at the hip because they share the same race, c’mon now this is silliness.

ZERObama wanted his hand free to put in your pocket.
Linking Obama to Howard would be like linking McCain to a KKK member. It’s a shame how ignorant people such as yourself continue to exist in this day and age.
