1. A new hand gesture? Looks like he's praying in the third and fifth photos.

5. Perhaps . . . or, just practicing his flamenco moves.

sorry.

:spank:

2. Thar She Blows! He can't handle the truth.

An angry chimp is a dangerous chimp. Getting legit questions after 5 years in the cocoon is something he won't be able to handle. He will blow up and lash out. Wouldn't want to be a staffer in the White House tonight.

3. They don't call him Chimp for nothing

Those are the facial expressions and gestures of a petulant, spoiled brat.

6. I like this one..

4. that's odd

his left ear is twice the size of his right. Is that what Bar used to drag him by?

7. In the first photo, he can barely hide his disdain for the press.

And the last two photos where he's being a scold are just plain insufferable.

But the ones in the middle expose him for the sheer idiot that he truly is. I'm reminded of the Bush impersonator who did the "here is the church, here is the steeple" joke, at the Jeff Foxworthy roast.
