>What it means is when someone is exercising constitutional rights and someone else doesn't like it they try to say it's being disrespectful to the United States.

So, it's OK when the Ku Klux Klan struts it rights?

Obama's statement that CK is excercising his rights is meaningless.
Of course CK was within his rights.
If not, he'd be in jail, and that's a good reason to show some respect for this country.
