Actually, I think the Secret Service trumps the President when it comes to his security. In any case, I think the restrictions are for reasons of security and not censorship. I'm a strong believer in the second amendment, but if I went to the inauguration parade, I would leave my gun at home. It's an understandable measure, as are restrictions of certain objects and placard sizes.

Actually, I think the Secret Service trumps the President when it comes to his security. Do they expect someone to beat Bush over the head with a cross?
What about beating him over the head with a menorah?
They would not DARE to outlaw the display of a menorah in the parade.
Not PC. But crosses are fair game.
If it weren't for this past Christmas' attempt by government agencies as well as commercial entities
to eradicate Christ and Christian symbols from the holiday, this might not be as egregious.
I hope Bush does something about it. The Secret Service can only order him about when his life is at stake.
