PHOTOS: compare bush* affection toward laura, with affection toward condi

[diamond14]

[notadmblnd]

1. he looks at laura like she is his mother

and he looks at Condi like she is his mistress.

[alfredo]

2. Of course our "Liberal Media" would not find

anything wrong if he was porking Condi, in fact they will find justification somewhere in the bible and declare it as proof of his godliness.

[charlie]

3. Try to find a pic of Dub and Laura

where they're looking at one another. You can go through hundreds before you find one. Even when they're dancing, their eyes don't meet.

Their "good" marriage is a sham.

[Blue_In_AK]

17. Every time I've seen ** and Laura kiss

(which thankfully hasn't been very often), they always do that cheek thing. Of course, if I were her, I wouldn't want to plant one on his lips either. Ewwww.www.w.w.ww......

[FreedomAngel82]

65. Interesting indeed

I remember seeing on Bush's union speech when he was talking about Laura and the innercity gang thing and he didn't even directly look at her. He barely acknowledged her. Just enough for her to stand, wave, and sit down. It is interesting. Of course if this was Mr. and Mrs. Clinton you know good and well it'd be all over the news. :grr:

[RockStar]

4. Of course condi is his slave...oppps I mean mistress

[Straight Shooter]

5. That is soooo inappropriate to kiss a subordinate.

GWB acts like he was raised without any lessons in manners whatsoever. There must be some reason that he does it; Rove would never allow him to do so, unless the benefits outweighed the detriment.

Why does bush kiss his subordinates???

[liveoaktx]

34. And why does he rub guy's heads?

He is simply not professional.

[diamond14]

36. Whoooooaaaaa....scary photos....real scary......

bush* degrades EVERYONE around him, and insults OUR COUNTRY....what a PIG !!!!

[catzies]

39. Just BALD guys. Some lame superstition, IIRC.

n/t

[dutchdoctor]

45. Trying to push their heads down: "you sure got purrty lips boy" n/t

[LynnTheDem]

62. It's commonly done by those w inferiority complexes

It's a put-down, just as his childish and stupid nicknames he gives to other nation leaders. A way for the inferior to prove they're superior.

[kskiska]

64. Lester Maddox

said he used to rub little black kids' heads for luck.

[brainshrub]

6. Oh sheesh guys!

Come on! It's not like Bush isn't a big enough target without making these kind of snarky insinuations.

Frankly, it's beneath DU.

Just saying.

[murray hill farm]

7. see how his hand is on Laura's back...

it is very revealing body language! He is not touching her..as in an affectionate touching. He is instead, controlling and directing her with that hand on the back. you might do that with a child...but not with an adult. It says maybe more than i want to know about that relationship.

[Blue_In_AK]

18. Right...

I'd turn around to him, plant my feet, and sneer, soto voce, "Stop PUSHING me, Asshole." But that's just me.

[Bunny]

55. That has ALWAYS bothered me about him!

He always has his hand on her back, or worse, her shoulder. It's very controlling and dominant. A more loving contact would be to have his hand on her waist, or around her waist.

[peacetalksforall]

8. I think people should go easy on Laura, maybe even the twins also, but not

so with Barbara. (Maybe I'm just joking about Barbara.)

Laura should be a non-target or a very toned down target because she doesn't say vile things or pimp hate propaganda. She just seems to want to play her role quietly. I say let her be.

[liveoaktx]

11. I stopped giving her a pass when she LIED to that women's group

about Bush writing that poem in which he called her a lump in the bed. She knew he didn't write that poem, but she deliberately let the people think he had, why, embarrassed at having such an illiterate husband? Second, writing it or not, what's wrong with someone publicly telling people she is called a *lump*.

[peacetalksforall]

14. Never heard about this...sounds weird - can't quite make out - this

sounds like a joke - you're joking? Please go easy on my gullibility.

[Clark2008]

15. Nope. No joke.

Go here to read about it:

[diamond14]

16. laura plays all the cards to enable the murder and torture done by bush*

just the other night, laura ENABLED the exploitation of a dead American Soldier's MOTHER and FATHER....


laura has expoited women from Afganistan, young Black males in inner city youth programs, poor children learning to read....

laura has traveled all over America telling LIES to American people, in the bush* campaign....

and while OUR Soldiers are being KILLED in bush* WARS, laura planned the multi-million dollar DECADENT coronation for bush*....


she spews her LIES on talk-shows, and in campaign ads....


she is NO innocent, but rather has embraced the ill-gotten BLOOD MONEY that allows her to live in such wealth....


NOBODY should go easy on such a criminal.....:puke:

[L.A.dweller]

28. Laura did pimp propaganda.

When she advocated for western feminism by condemning the middle eastern tradition of women's clothing and roles in society.
They used Laura to pimp women's opinion that the war in Iraq is a good thing.
On edit: Not only the war in Iraq but the entire middle east.

[July]

50. Wasn't she part of the PR team on the smear boaters, too?

Remember when Dole, GHWB, and Laura appeared on talk shows implying that there MUST be some truth to the smear boaters' charges, and Laura, I believe, talked about the nasty things that had been said about her poor hubby (trying to equate the smears w/criticism of Bush -- an "all's fair" defense)?

[Ani Yun Wiya]

42. That fourth ?female? you mention...

should take a ride to Argentina,Afghanistan,Nicaragua or any of a host of other spots around the globe.

And the Irish in me says FOR THE FULL RIDE:

1. the obligatory "sack over the skull"
2. the "hog-tied" body language.
3. the journey of unknown duration.
4. the "trashy" treatment upon arrival at a destination not of choice.
5. the final gasp of air, after her soony boy says "we ain't doin no negotiatin' with no TERRORISTS"

[sandnsea]

44. No way

She is setting women's rights back 100 years. The woman is an absolute disgrace. She has one of the most powerful roles in the world, and she does absolutely NOTHING. If she was truly active and spoke as an independent woman, I would go easier on her. She is a BIG part of the reason people trust Bush. They think such a sweet person wouldn't be married to a monster. She campaigned all over the place for him. She's fair game.

As to the girls, if it weren't for these people harping on their Christian family values, I'd say leave them alone. But it's unreal that they make a claim on moral values with the way those two have turned out. It's blatant hypocrisy. That's why they get slammed and I can't say I blame the people who do the slamming.

[peacetalksforall]

53. OK...you've all convinced me. NOT INNOCENT.

[diamond14]

57. glad you've seen the light...welcome aboard.....

:hi:

[bvar22]

9. Someone needs to add the Joe Lieberman...

...SOTU kiss to this pictorial!

[helderheid]

10. yes

[truth2power]

12. There's something seriously mentally wrong with him.

That thing with Lieberman had a "clanging" feel about it. It's about boundaries. And about an intuitive knowledge of social cues, the kinds of things we all integrate into our personalities as we develop from child to adult.

With Bush, there's something missing. Condi, Lieberman, that incident in Canada where he told that aide, "You've got a prettier face than my Scott." and other incidents we could probably think of. All of these make you want to go, "WTF?"

There's an arrested development that causes one to see him more as a child than as a man. It's creepy!

[charlie]

13. He was insistent about the poor guy's pretty face

Told him about it twice.

Cue the banjoes.

[truth2power]

37. Yikes! Deliverance. Didn't one of the guys

actually say that? I don't remember. :evilgrin:

[PA Democrat]

48. I think it's all about power

He intentionally demeans people who cannot do anything to protest his actions as a way of exerting his "superiority" over them. The way he makes up nicknames for the press and for members of congress, rubbing peoples' heads, kissing subordinates are all part of the overall pattern.

It also points to the fact that he is basically very insecure if he has to put other people down in order to boost his own ego. He is an immature and very dangerous adolescent bully boy.

Edited for clarity.

[catzies]

19. MORE pictures, I want MORE pictures. This could be interesting.

Come on DUers, let's document this further.

[Clark2008]

23. OK

(It's kind of hard to find many pics of them looking at each other!)

[liveoaktx]

24. You want creepy? I've got creepy

Plus, on this first one, you can see where Laura's gotten a face job.
Vulcan Mind Meld-MUST KEEP LAURA IN LINE


Don't Move Or I'll Break Your Neck


OOO, i SO Love it when you kiss me, Mushroom!


Thank God I get laid from SOMEBODY

[catzies]

25. That last one NAILS IT. Case closed. We gotta out these kids

somehow.

[Eric J in MN]

33. Thanks. I don't claim to know what is going on there, but those

are still an interesting set of photos.

[ebayfool]

47. .

[catzies]

60. No, sorry, no Photoshopped entries. Only authentic photos please.

That's what we're talking about. :)

[catzies]

20. Two more. Action shots, if you will.

Bush won't walk next to Laura, but



he does with Condi

[FreedomAngel82]

66. Very interesting

I don't see them holding hands much either. My mom and dad aren't much at hand holding but Bush is just cold to Laura. Especially when they're supposed to be this tight loving family. Ya know? :shrug:

[catzies]

21. Oh no lovemuffin! We've been caught!

[catzies]

22. I don't think Laura likes her husband's "office wife"

[liveoaktx]

30. I think it goes beyond that-bet she's sold out for dough

all the shopping and face lifts she can possibly have, as long as, after he's out of office, they can leave that town in the middle of nowhere and move back to the city. I noticed that, during the SOTU address, she didn't look too happy when Shrub talking about marriage. And uh, does she REALLY want to be in charge of gangs?
My Fave SOTU shots

[diamond14]

35. GREAT 3 minute video....nice clips of SOTU....chimp-in-charge...

thanks.....:nuke:

[psychopomp]

46. Watched your clip; not to threadjack but

why on Earth are those fascia still on either side of the rostrum in our highest legislative body?

[Ani Yun Wiya]

49. Gee, looks like ye poodle...

gets to share?

AH, the wild colonial days.

[FreedomAngel82]

67. Does Condi

go EVERYWHERE with Bush? Does she ever stay in the office? :shrug: Now she's SOS I bet she'll be spending even more time with him. Oh to be a little fly in the House.

[DemDogs]

26. This is not what we need to focus on

His affection for Laura is about the only thing I don't doubt about him, and this is not a useful line for us. Put the shoe on the other foot for a minute.

[diamond14]

27. a 'blow job' almost brought down President Clinton...no reason to hesitate

PLUS, bush* has now promoted his unqualified mistress to U.S. Secretary of State, so they can travel INTERNATIONALLY TOGETHER for their 'little tryst'.....and THAT endangers the entire United States of America....


this isn't about a blow-job, it's about OUR SAFETY and dignity in the World....

[L.A.dweller]

31. Where's Condi's blue dress?

The stained one I mean.

[diamond14]

32. PHOTO......(from BartCop)....

thanks to www.bartcop.com

[barb162]

40. you got it! n/t

[Democrat Dragon]

29. OMG! Laura has Stepford chips implanted on her brain!

ever seen "The Stepford Wives"?

[Disturbed]

38. Laura Bush is the soft sell.

She spoke out against Stem Cell Research. She is the Bush Junta Stealth Weapon.

[NVMojo]

41. she's a fool to close her eyes like that while he is pecking on her face

and I mean it ...this usually means love ...

:loveya:

[catzies]

61. Yup. That's what we're talking about. These aren't Photoshops.

I can only speak for myself, but they're all from the results of image searches from official, if not respectful sites -- including whitehouse.gov, fer crissakes!

[Tactical Progressive]

43. caption for cabinet appointment kiss

Bush: "I don't care. Right here right now. My 'pencil of freedom' has never been this hard."

Condi: "No, not here. Not now George. Not now."

Rummy: "Break it up! I told you two to wait until after the press conference."

Cabinet guy: "We're gonna need a firehose to cool these two down."

Laura: "Where's George?"

[DemonFighterLives]

51. Rummy

I want some of that action!

[catmandu57]

52. Kindasleazy is his concubine and the bible sez

that concubines are okay.

[Dulcinea]

54. I think Condi is in love with Boy George.

And he loves her about as much as he is capable of.

Laura probably looks the other way. There are none so blind as those who refuse to see.

[Done]

56. Condi seems to be having a fantasy

[TheOriginalAmerican]

58. I know that Condi's an ass.....

but please don't make her out to be some whore of Bush.

[catzies]

63. Welcome to DU, but that's not what we're saying exactly

No one is calling her a whore.

It just seems pretty clear that they have a very intense relationship. So, no sense in putting words in our mouths by saying we're saying Condi's a whore.

This may be chaste, but it doesn't look - how does one say, "employer/employee." Don't care who it is.

What is it Republicans were trumpeting during Clinton's impeachment farce? Oh yeah, "Rule of law! Rule of law!"

Sauce for the goose...

[Piperay]

59. It's OK

cause chimp is Condi's 'husband' she even said so. :puke:

[fortyfeetunder]

68. A new dish in DC is making the rounds

Killer rice
A little brown rice, with some brown sugar and a Crawford texas turd mixed in....

How much you wanna bet Laura isn't eating it?
