White House rebukes guests who flipped bird at Reagan portrait (Flashback: 2012)
FOX News ^ | 2012

The White House on Friday rebuked two visitors who were photographed last week at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue flipping the middle finger below a portrait of the late President Ronald Reagan.

The guests had been invited to a reception last Friday marking gay pride month. The images of them -- with both middle fingers raised, pointing up toward Reagan -- were first published by Philadelphia Magazine.

The White House did not approve.

"While the White House does not control the conduct of guests at receptions, we certainly expect that all attendees conduct themselves in a respectful manner. Most all do," Shin Inouye, a White House spokesman, said. "These individuals clearly did not. Behavior like this doesn’t belong anywhere, least of all in the White House."

Why are we inviting “gay pride” events into the White House, and what would anyone expect the level of “respect” to be in that demographic????

Gays blame Reagan for AIDS. Because of course everyone knows Reagan had a bio lab where he did experiments on gays until he got a virus formula that would really put a damper on their lifestyle, he was just that evil.

Maybe so that when they misbehave they do it in the limelight?

I think a no camera policy is in order. Screw the media.

Actually, yes, they can control behavior at a reception. If someone is caught disrespecting ANYONE in the peoples’ house—be it Reagan or Obama, they need to have their asses bounced out of there. There’s just some stuff you keep to yourself.

...

They sure do. They believe every lie that’s been told about him. Reagan directed a lot of money and effort into “gay cancer” before anybody knew what caused it.

homosexuals are extreme narcissists, which is the root of all their behavior.
