I am sure that if patriotic pictures of Pres Obama were easier to come by that more would be included. But the fact is Obama does not want to be seen as one who would put his hand over his heart. We honor him by not including all of the images where everyone else is pledging the flag and while resists. That would only cause long pointless comments attached to the article.

Well, you're the one who made the claim that "Obama is a snake that is turning our country into a communist country", so the burden of proof is on you. Funny how reality works, isn't it?

If 2001's Freedom Festival only showed one picture of Bush during multiple ones of Clinton, they'd be rioting in the streets. It's almost funny how nakedly biased and bigoted these people are. Almost.

Unfortunately, Obama's doing a poor job.

What has Obama done that makes people worship him? Read your comments and take a serious look at what you are saying. He is a person that makes mistakes. He is not a God! Stop making him out to be a Savior. He is probably more from the other direction from the way he acts!

. . . to me. This was a show about patriotism, not spin, demagoguery, and lies.

Uh... Living in the past does not fix the problems of now!

President Bush is no longer President.

In Utah most saints like to live in the past and are sheep to talk.

Maybe most will wake up to see that action is more important than talk.

Republicans help organizations who help the Rich.

Democrats help organizations who help the Poor.

Which is more christlike?

Makes sense | 4:34 p.m. July 6, 2009

It was a freedom festival. Why would you show the picture of a man who is taking away the freedoms we are celebrating?

Name one freedom that he is taking away...

RichPoor | 1:40 p.m. July 7, 2009

Uh...

Republicans help organizations who help the rich.

Democrats help organizations who help the poor.

What is the status of this nation right now?

You mean the same Obama whose political career began in the home of domestic terrorist and personal friend, Bill Ayers; and who sat in the congregation letting the sewage of radicalism, anti-Americanism, and racial hatred penetrate his brain for 20 years; and whose other allies and friends included former PLO terrorist Rashid Khalidi. Obama couldn't pass the background check to obtain the National security clearance to become a federal agent; yet he is now the chief law enforcement agent in the US and the boss of those same federal agents.... how's that for irony. Yeah, we should limit the photos of Obama- the sheeple of the US were dupe by him.

"Yeah, we should limit the photos of Obama- the sheeple of the US were dupe by him. "

The shepple knew all about his "connections" and voted for him anyway. He was by far the best candidate...and he IS YOUR PRESIDENT. How about some respect for that office?

P in Mexifornia | 3:20 p.m. July 7, 2009

I give Obama a thousand times more respect than the hypocritical liberal Democrats gave to the previous holder of that office..... the liberals slandered, hated, mocked, vilified, used vile hateful labels and speach, and did everything in their power to undermine the preivous Republican Presidential office holder... You liberals have no self-awareness when it comes to your policital hypocrisy. Shameful...
