I'm pretty sure I heard a lib say yesterday in response to tax dollars going overseas to fund abortions, and I'll go ahead and use it hear.

"make a note on your taxes that you dont want any of your money going to that"

I work for a DoD entity, we had emails with the President's photo sent to us on the 20th at noon.

The agency has a copy of the official photo.

Don't let them tell you otherwise.

The interesting question isn't whether the President's picture is up -- it is. The question is what did people do with Bush's picture when they took it down?
  1. Recycle it to the mens room in lieu of the old Sears catalog?
  2. See who can tear their copy into the most pieces?
  3. Mailed it back to his mother?
  4. Other?

My base had them hung that day.

The VA is risking their Agency head being held for contempt.

Am I paranoid to have a strong feeling this has everything to do with his being black? She asked her hospital's public affairs person and they said the pictures would be ready in March. MARCH?! We've known who won since November 2008 and the official picture was available for print since before the inarguration.

If any of you work for VA and have your pictures up already, feel free to sound off here. I'd be interested to know if this is just a coincidence. Meanwhile, I'll just sit here and stew in suspicion.
Yes, this is one of the pressing issues of our time. I expect we'll be hearing Obama making an address to the nation soon on this very topic!

No, it is our right to not hang photos of a socialist muslim.

We had the pic of Bush up and running the same day he was voted in. Why is a Hitler wannabe up there so quick but not someone that was elected by more than half of our nation? including many whites!!!! Makes you wonder about the conservatives' agenda....Long live Socialism!!

Actually, it makes me wonder why some people are so paranoid, and read all manner of crap into every situation.

There could easily be about a thousand legitimate reasons why the portrait of Our Savior isn't yet on the wall. But let's just say it's because of bigotry and racism, shall we?
