2. I agree -- but I found it amazing they put it first in Chimpy's pics
You look at that, and in the next photos you see him grinning.

15. And * is havin' a GRRREAT TIME!
My favorite picture is the one a few frames forward where it looks like Bush is dropping stuff on the crowd with a crane.

He certainly does have the worst camera-angle luck.

25. The future's so bright, you gotta wear shades....
If you make a billion a year and don't have to work and your kid's not in Iraq and your mortgage is covered because your name is famous and you're the de facto presidente and....

Well, that you're RICH, RICH, RICH! Not middle class (what the hell is that, anymore?)

28. Junior is wearing that SAME shirt, again!
Edited on Thu Aug-11-05 01:05 AM by txindy
He wore it just six days ago in that photo-op with Colombia's president


and he wore it in that segment shown on 'Countdown' tonight when Barney left his 'commentary' on the lawn in August of LAST YEAR:


It seems like every time he has a photo op, he pulls out the light blue checkered shirt. :eyes: Does NO ONE dress this simpleton?! I'm beginning to feel bad for this bozo. **sniff** Does he have no other clothing? :sarcasm:

This is beyond ridiculous. Junior is NOT a rancher! He does not have to prance around in somebody's idea of a rancher's shirt in order to be perceived as a 'good ol' boy'. It's not and he ain't. Puttin' lipstick on a pig is not going to make him a pop star.

Someone call the wardrobe department! :eyes:

Adding: Update. Thank goodness! The one he wore today has long sleeves and the one he wore in the other pictures does not. He's got TWO shirts he wears to look like someone's idea of a rancher. One up North and one down South. I'm SO pleased, now. :eyes:

32. Reminds me of when John Lennon was shot.
One of the local rock stations was in the middle of doing a Top 20 countdown, and after they announced the shooting, they played Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Shoot to Thrill, and Another One Bites the Dust.

In a row.

33. Cindy Sheehan stories in the NY Times, the LA TImes and the Wash Post
Of these, the NYT and the LAT are strongly supportive and the Wash Post is so-so. This is ALL THREE of the top three newspapers in the country for political reporting. Here's the thread on the LA Times story, and links to the other two stories are given in the first two replies:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x2000891
Thread title: LA Times:"Mother's Protest at Bush's Doorstep Raises the Stakes" GOOD!!!

And don't miss Oliphant's magnificent cartoon on Cindy's vigil and Junior's response to it:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x4312023
Thread title: New Oliphant comic: "bereaved mother camped down at the ranch gate"

History is being made!

37. "You're can only be young once, but you can be immature forever"
my dad used to say that all the time, i mean all the damn time. The phrase means a lot to me, and seeing chimpy's face in that third pic... mmm, grr. :grr:

"my udvisurs don' told me to smyyle wider, i'm gon' smile right at the sun, i'mma gonna do it, o yeah, i'm doin' it, i'm doin' it awright.... i'm doin' it, i'mma goina keep doin' it mhm" aaaaaaaaaaand repeat, and because I've tortured myself by watching this man's intellect dissemble behind sunken shallow eyes I can guarantee there is little else happening.

No real joy leading to a real smile. Who here would still believe that is happening?

38. The Hastert/Smiling Chimperor photo BEGS for a SwampRatting!
I can't believe this bitch-ass primate holds the highest office of our country.

Chimperor looks like he's on the happy end of a Rovian BJ.

42. 1:10 in Maine and the first picture is no longer the same.
But I still get the feeling that the slideshow creator doesn't much like GWB.
