thanks to www.bartcop.com/








and the REALITY of laura's NEW Role (dubbed "Passport to Manhood") to keep youth out of gangs...

1. She looks like "Carla" from Cheers in that poster

:)

3. Hmmmm. This picture could have some interesting captions.

5. Yikes! I could be moved to start to consider joining a gang.

FRIGHTENING PHOTO OP! It should have been scrubbed.

on edit:

WTF? "Passport to Manhood"? What is that supposed to mean?

[nickgutierrez]

6. "Hell, George doesn't even know that..." n/t

[NervousRex]

8. Pssst, hey kid...

...ya gotta Marlboro I can bum?"

[BrklynLiberal]

10. eeeooowwwwwwwwww Great visualization of the internals of W

That is probably exactly what the portrait in the attic looks like.

20. "this is my eleanor roosevelt pose."

[BrklynLiberal]

9. That was my first thought too.

2. ...and if they still insist on being in gangs after all your hard work,

Pickles, you can always kill them with your car.

4. You can tell how deeply moved these boys are by the look on their faces.

Maybe if her husband would fund school there wouldn't be as much of a problem with gangs.

7. Laura looks like she's found herself sitting next to a big,

hairy spider, and is trying to be brave.

11. The boy looks like he's found himself sitting next to a big, hairy spider,

and is scared shitless.

It just shows you how stupid and cruel the weecowboy is

STUPID, because he thought putting Laura in the spotlight with this issue was a GOOD idea. CRUEL, because only an ASSHOLE would put his wife, who is not a good fit for this endeavor, in that sort of role.

What a bastard!

[RedCappedBandit]

12. Who would actually attend?

Or are they forced as part of schools "curriculum"?

[MADem]

13. Probably a forced diversion program

...where the kids are shuffled from juvie to the classroom--you just can't see the leg irons in the photo!!! Look sharp, and we won't send ya to reform school!

The poor little kids look absolutely MISERABLE. You'd think they could have found a single smile or two to photograph. It must not have been a very uplifting experience, all around.

14. Is she related to Beavis or Butthead??????

They have the same eyes as Laura!

[Rob H.]

15. "Passport to Manhood" strikes me as a bit off

It makes it sound as if she's going to keep young men out of gangs by helping them get lucky in, um, "other ways." Not saying she will, I'm just saying it's a weird theme.

Can you imagine? "My first time? Ah, I remember it well. It was a rendezvous arranged by Batman's arch-enemy, The Joker...."

[UdoKier]

16. LOL. Nothing like a frozen-faced Stepford Wife to scare at-risk boys...

away from gangs. Remember how the stick figure Nancy Reagan's admonition to "just say no" totally put an end to drugs in the 80s?

Oh yes, nobody is quite as in-touch with the hood as the gals with the shellacked hair and Galanos dresses...

[RedCappedBandit]

17. I agree

Why do these rich snobs from Washington think they know anything about these people's lifestyles?

[diamond14]

18. and that was even before BOTOX...at least nancy dressed well

pickles is just a SLOB at all levels....



"Just say NO" was ANOTHER reTHUGlican FAILURE that continues to cost $ BILLIONS AND $ BILLIONS.....that stupid 'war on drugs' was just another thinly veiled disguise for reaguns racists: throw EVERY Black man into a prison, jail, or house-detention program, and then DISENFRANCISING them from voting...so in the eyes of reTHUGlicans, the program has been a HUGE SUCCESS....

19. Last photo: "Which is more dangerous?"

"The nice lady in the jacket, or the sullen-looking young black teen?"

Let's get some background! The sullen-looking young black teen has kids around him who claim membership in the "Crips" or the "Bloods" or the "Disciples". This is very attractive to him, since the male in that age range yearns for a sense of belonging with other males. And we all know that fathers are noticeably absent in the lives of such young men!

Meanwhile, the kindly-looking lady in the jacket is already a member of a gang which makes the Crips, the Bloods, and the Disciples (all put together) look like a kindergarten game of "Drop the Handkerchief". She is a member of the Bush Cartel, an international crime cartel which roams the world swallowing up the wealth of any vulnerable person or entity; it is a stateless gang of thugs which currently has the power of the U.S. military behind it... the blood it has shed is immeasurable.

Looks can be deceiving! I know which one I'D cross the street to get away from!
