Not present, or at least not singing the National Anthem at the rally was Londonderry senior Zach Bencal.

Bencal, who sings the anthem for a number of school events and is actively involved in local community theatre, had been contacted by the Obama campaign to sing the anthem. He agreed to do so, then was told later in the evening the anthem had been scratched from the program. Bencal said he was told by the campaign the decision was a simple programming change to make room for another speaker.

"I guess it just wasn't meant to be," Bencal said.

Sandra Abrevaya, communications director for the Obama campaign's Manchester office, confirmed the choice had simply been a last-minute scratch from the rally's program, which included the Pledge of Allegiance.

The Under God part would have melted too many attendees.The last sentence is ambiguous, but I'm pretty sure it meant the pledge was included in the program.

Never in my life have I seen a group of individuals get so bent out of shape over pointless shit as people do in this forum. So he didn't play the national anthem, so what? America isn't going to die if you don't play the anthem at EVERY. SINGLE. RALLY!

Its as if people feel that somehow, if they're not reminded to be patriotic, the shit is going to hit the fan...

this is the united states of america. the national anthem is part of every major sporting event and should be for an event such the one held.

it just goes to show who un-American the terrorist barack HUSSEIN is

It's a shame too, because I bet he had Aggie Hoops Fag's vote before this blunder.

Yeah, too bad you're too busy sucking Obama's dick for anyone else to have a chance.

Wooo-hoooo! You get 'em, Jeb! You tell them no good, liberal, God-hating heathens the ways of our Nation, son!

God be praised, that McCain feller' at least takes his vow of office from the Good Book!

While that lyin', cheatin', devil-worshippin' terrorist HUSSEIN Obama counts his blessings from the KO-RAN!

Bunch of flarin' communists are takin' over this here good land of ours, God's Land I say! Why, if you hippy faggots vote for Obama, youre the gal-danged enemy in my eyes, and my eyes see ONLY through GOD"S eyes!

Thats right, you heard me....I'm right because God says Im right! Is that too hard to understand for you and your fancy schooled mind? Why just the other day in church, the Lord spoke thru the Reverend, to deliver a message of hate, bigotry, deception and lies, ANYTHING to further our cause.

Because our cause is just. How, you ask, do we know that? Because God told us so.

/dumb-fuck hillbilly, hate-filled bigot who couldnt attach his trailer to his 1985 F150 without first consulting God (of course), his Preacher and his hound dog.

Your a fool. You buy into the nonsense. The anthem is not played at every political rally.
