1. Little Bo Peeps

Where are the sheep?

Oops -- 50% of the American population are sheep following their leader.

[smurfygirl]

2. hahahahaha

:bounce:

[Career Prole]

3. Bo-Peeps or Peeps Peeps?

I can't tell 'em apart!

[Bronco69]

4. ROFLMAO!

Priceless! :-)

[Rapcw]

7. LOL

[Skip Intro]

13. LOL! Gotta see those side by side

Is this for real?

[LibDemAlways]

16. Good, Lord...

Who are the hell are those women? What planet did they come from? There are no words.....

[DoYouEverWonder]

36. Looks like they got lost

on the way to the Lawrence Welk audition.

[NYC]

30. Thank you. They really do need to be seen side by side.

That is incredible. I have to copy those pictures. The Peep Peeps are a brighter pink than the Bo Peeps, but they have used the same colors: pink, blue, yellow, purple.

Maybe the real Peeps will march in the next inauguration. I really must copy those two photographs.

5. Oh my! This is an embarrassment.

Are they pining away for the good ol plantation days?

[Dudley_DUright]

6. Yup, they think that is what Bush means by "Ownership Society"

Of course, with Bush's tendency to regress back-wards in history, that is probably exactly what he means.

32. Their vision of the ideal woman

:puke:

[Theres-a]

18. LMFAO!

What the hell are they supposed to be, anyway?

[NYC]

10. What was that meant to be?

I have no idea.

[Stephanie]

12. I think they marched in the parade

Did they? I missed the whole thing. I really want a tape of it now. That is just unbelievable.

[MountainLaurel]

20. Southern belles?

That's my best guess, although toilet paper cozy comes in fast behind in second place.

[NYC]

28. I never knew there were so many black southern belles.

I remember those toilet paper cozies. They did have skirts like that.

Overall, it was one hell of an inauguration. I didn't see anything of the parade other than the revolutionary costumes (made me think of revolution), but the rest of it, including George Will, just cheered me up immensely.

11. Somebody ate the brown acid

Good God what a sight.


I can't stop looking at it.

[wildeyed]

17. Good Lord....

Who are those women? What planet did they come from? There are no words....

[Danmel]

19. OMG- what the hell is that?

For some reason I had a flashback to those SUperbowl halftime shows with that "Up With People" group. What the hell are they wearing> Who are they? And why are they there?

[mcscajun]

21. I am *so* glad I didn't see this on TV

I would have :puke:

Peeps? Yes.
TP Cozys? Definitely.
Intelligent Life Forms Dressed In Pastels? Negative.

[Deja Q]

22. Okay. You KNOW that I have to make a response here.

They've also given me a new idea for my website...

The republican's vision of the ideal woman?

[Ms Chicklet]

[mountainvue]

25. What the hell is that? n/t

[roguevalley]

26. probably the daughters of the confederacy. sort of like the loser DAR

[kodi]

27. the first wave of human clones, and they use Vivian Leigh's DNA?

THAT was a part of the parade? really? no way, please do not tell me that those women marched in a parade for bush's inauguration.

man, this crap is making Marie Antoinette's "let them eat cake" look like enlightened sensitivity.

[JohnyCanuck]

29. I think they're from Alabama (maybe Mobile)

While I was channel surfing this morning I briefly caught one of the US news shows and they were showing these pink, blue, green and yellow ladies standing around and some guy was explaining they were a group from Alabama (I think he said also said from Mobile, but can't remember for sure) and they were dressed in the costumes of the "antebellum south" (the antebellum south is of course the place where girls were girls, men were men and slaves were slaves) and they travelled all over the US to participate in parades (presumably to revive fond memories of the good old days of cotton picking down on the old plantation).

[NYC]

31. Who supplied those women? Do they represent a state?

Were those gowns intended for Laura to wear at the inaugural balls?

[slor]

33. LOL...

I hate Peeps too! Figures he would have the humanoid version at his crowning.

[PopSixSquish]

34. And to W and His Coke-fueled Hallucinations, This Looked Great!
