Obama: First U.S. President to hold Press Conference without American Flags

via FreeRepublic.com

Did anybody notice at President Obama's Press Conference on the Deep Water Horizon disaster than something was missing in the background? I noticed something didn't look right and then it hit me. The American Flags was missing behind. Why? Behind him was just yellow curtains, and a couple of gold columns with chandeliers.

I went and researched and looked at all photos of many press conferences (not press briefings) of past presidents as far as I could go and low and behold the American Flags stood proudly behind the President or off to the side. What was the reason for this? This was Obama's first formal press conference since July of 09 which at that conference were U.S. Flags present. I am pretty sure this time that they had plenty of time to plan this and get it right?

7. In defense of George W. Bush, he was wearing an American flag diaper. nt

9. No, get your facts straight.

The diaper was made from an actual copy of the COnstitution taken from the Smithsonian; he blew nis nose on a piece of the flag that Betsy Ross sewed.

8. Somehow I find it refreshing

Bush and every Known Republican always surrounded themselves with huge flags. Even that wasn't enough they had to wear them on their lapels too. They couldn't ever have enough to show how ultra patriotic they were. Use to make me sick looking at their smug faces.

11. well

But... its probably harder to find an unburned US flag in Europe where Bush was than in the White House. At least one would think, unless someone let Kevin Jennings run around unsupervised.

Yes, I'm kidding. That should be obvious. //pre-emptive defense
