The Great Uniter has the white house rainbow a few days ago but no red, white and blue today.
People have been discussing this in the last few days, and just as we suspected he would not do the red, white, and blue. He can celebrate the homosexuals, but not this country. What a President huh? If he is a President, I must be the King of England. Come on 2017 when we see the end of this mess.
Couldn't agree more. I didn't see things this way in 1979 when Jimmuh Carter was POTUS. I even voted for him, out of his belief that sacrificing this country's interests would make us a better country.
Then, in 1981 was learned what it was like to have a patriotic President.
Showing the rainbow colors was a pretty tacky thing to do. I don't know why people who support gay marriage can't understand that. The White House is an official government residence, not someplace where you spike the football when your side wins something with some gaudy public display. If they wanted to do that at the Democratic party headquarters, fine, but at the White House that was inappropriate. ...
Kanhawk, except for the last sentence, which I deleted, I can see reasonableness in your statement. I imagine you and I don't share a lot of viewpoints, but here you have written something that is a fair and reasonable opinion.
Your hyperbolic, false outrage, and that of your fellow Obama haters, is tedious and really quite moronic. It shows your lack of education and awareness of real policy, not just whatever is spewed by Fox News or The Blaze.
Every president is a "real" president whether we like him or not. The fact that peopl write what they do about him and that he lets it roll off his back like the ignorance that it is, shows just how good a president and person he is.
Your inability to spell shows your lack of education. Same with the use of the word "like" where you sound like a 15 year old.
Obama could've bleeped red, white and blue firecrackers out of his bleep, while holding a bud light in one hand and a bald eagle in the other, wearing a Jimmy Johnson NASCAR jacket with Toby Keith's guitar rendition of the National Anthem playing in the background, and he still wouldn't be "American" enough for some of you. Whatever that means.
Give one the opportunity and they will literally whine about anything.
MoonBeam, this has nothing to do with the rainbow colors of a flag generally associated with gay rights. This has to do with one "color" -- Black. That's what Obama is, and the Republicans will never forgive him for being Black.
Being black has nothing to do with it. We who hold to libertarian beliefs can never accept him because he's a statist, and has taken that form of depravity to new levels ... especially in his efforts to derail our Constitutional heritage of checks and balances. It is the so-called "progressives" who are the most dangerous advocates of Fascism in contemporary America.

I purposely avoided this thread because I knew it would only be a matter of time before I got dragged into some nonsense, but this is where I draw the line.
What, on God's green earth are you talking about!?! Pseudo-intellectualism at its finest.
Obama isn't even close to a statist. Not even in the same ballpark. Compare him to some moderate socialist politicians in Europe, such as Elio di Rupo, and he still doesn't even come close.

Right because the White House never does anything gaudy. Have you seen the trees and all the decorations that go up at Christmas, the Easter Egg roll on the front lawn, hosting troops and family members for fireworks and a BBQ on July 4th, hosting a Passover Sedar. The list goes on.
The White House has always done big gaudy displays for holidays and such. They were doing it long before Obama and will be doing it long after.
