Like the Obamas, show your colors so everyone knows where your loyalties lie.

BigBlue, the image is missing. Is this the picture showing the Obama's holding the South African Flag I heard about? Do you think "Big Brother" removed the image?

Yup your right Suz, it shows the picture OK with google chrome, but when I use FF it displays the error you gave. Interesting though when copying the link from the little box that shows in BigbBue's post and pasting it in FF, the result is what Bushy describes.

Well, that worked.
Nice to see the first family showing the flag they love.....
Maybe we ought to send them there for an extended exile!

Snopes says that the photo was taken when the Obamas visited South Africa last year. It was chilly when they landed so someone gave the girls the blankets.

I'm no "Big Uh-O" fan either but we gotta be know the truth.

Somehow I can't picture them doing the same in a chilly Israel, neither can I picture our past Presidents allowing their families to be wrapped in the flag of another nation. This photo had been posted as having been taken at the 2012 Olympics, I believe Snopes when they say that isn't true. However in my view it is shameful non the less. Too many good Americans have laid down their lives for great causes that are symbolized by our own flag and to wrap yourself in the flag of another is disrespectful. If anyone should know better it is the first family. After all they are acting in the capacity of Ambassadors representing America on trips such as this.

How convenient to have those [flag] blankets so handy.
One must always remember the Snopes is very liberal leaning.

As much as she likes America and how proud she is of that fact. I bet they do.
