Bush finally showed up and he looks absolutely terrified

[DoYouEverWonder]

Either that or that was one hell of bender he went on for the holidays.

[don954]

1. a red x?

[flyingfysh]

2. the "red x" means the graphic is not available

This is what Internet Explorer uses if it is supposed to put an image in some spot, and the image is not available. Firefox probably uses something else. It says nothing about Bush.

[durtee librul]

6. Red X?

What's that?

* looks old and worn out but as I said earlier, I guess excessive drinking will do that to a person. Spin will say he is 'tanned from clearing all that cedar from his 'ranch' over the holidays.'

Spare me. He's f'd up. Plus, shouldn't he just about be out of brush by now with all the vacation he takes? Cedar doesn't grow THAT fast does it?

[Sal Minella]

18. I was told on the QT that the Secret Service brings in brush from the Amazon

rain forest and plants it on the Crawford Ranchetta overnight for * to find in the morning......

[tavalon]

50. LOL

I don't doubt it.

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

3. The link to the picture is incorrect

I right clicked and found that the page requested was not found.

[Pharaoh]

4. He Looks Like He is

Heavily Medicated and out of touch with reality...........

Nothing new here..:toast:

[rubberducky]

5. He looks like he is in the middle of a panic attack!

[Ilsa]

7. Do a right click and "Show Picture". He looks like

someone just told him Barney died. No, wait, that's not it. He looks like a child who had a Christmas toy taken away from him. Or maybe he is realizing that there is no way, when he dies, that he'll get the respect that Ford got.

[madokie]

8. his eyes look like two piss holes in a snow drift

[BrklynLiberal]

10. ROTFLMAO!! PERFECT!!!!!!!

[kskiska]

9. He probably knows that Poppy is next

and given his guilt from the resentment he feels toward his father, and all the bitterness that's transpired between them over the years, he's going to be a godawful mess when it happens. There must have been scenes when Poppy called him a drunken, do-nothing disappointment of a son. He must have heard, "Why can't you be more like Jeb?" Then again, he must be awed by the old man and his competence in business and the public service posts he's held. When * looks in the mirror he knows he still doesn't measure up.

[speedoo]

12. Or maybe he's thinking about what's going down when HIS turn comes.

Headlines:

"Worst President Ever.... Dead. Finally."

"G. W. Bush Dead. Yay!!!"

"G. W. Bush, so-called President Dead. About Fucking Time."

"They had a Funeral for G. W. Bush, and Nobody Came. (too many busy celebrating)"

[CTyankee]

20. Now, now. Bad karma.

n/t

[speedoo]

26. I respect karma, but sometimes I just have to ignore it.

If Bob Dylan can, so can I.

From "Masters of War", this is for all the bastards... Bush, Cheney, Rummy, Rice. All of them:

And I hope that you die
And your death'll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand o'er your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead

I just hope I live long enough to see a few of them dead.

[CTyankee]

30. Somehow I feel that our revenge is nothing compared to what they will get.

I believe in justice and we should pursue justice for its own sake, always, because without justice there is no resolution and no peace.

But some things I feel will be worked out in the fullness of time and we cannot always know how that will happen. But happen it does. And our justice may be nothing compared to the justice that is finally meted out. I know that sounds a little wishy washy but I truly do believe it.

Let's hope for a scalding public shaming!

[speedoo]

31. Doesn't sound wishy washy at all.

And I agree with your comments about justice. They will get what they deserve, I have no doubt about that.

[valerief]

34. They won't be the headlines. They'll be the lawn signs and bumper stickers all over America. nt

[tavalon]

51. He's a sociopath

The emotions you just attributed to him aren't in his repertoire. Pissy, angry, aloof and childish are, though.

[Straight Shooter]

11. george w. bush is very, very, very afraid of death

He attempts to compensate by causing it, mocking it, and avoiding any encounter with the reality of death.

Laura looks appropriately reverent for this moment in time. Wait until she sees this photo of El Stupido beside her.

[malaise]

33. Saddam is haunting him and will do so to the

grave.

[Straight Shooter]

36. I do believe when you kill someone or have them killed in vengeance ...

... a piece of their soul lodges within your soul and will torment you forever.

[malaise]

38. Someone should have told him that

He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.
Friedrich Nietzsche

[annabanana]

13. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. . . .

... and the idiot son has a moment of clarity.

[deminks]

14. Happy New Year, Chimpy.

It's probably both fear and a bender. Have you paid everyone you have to to keep quiet for the upcoming investigations, Smirky? Are you sure? Have you or your minions forgotten anyone? It's hard werk, ya know, Chimpy?

[uppityperson]

15. flowies, look at the pretty flowies

[gulliver]

16. 'No, Spirit. Oh no, no.' n/t

[bdamomma]

17. maybe he has seen the ghost of christmas yet to come!!

[C_U_L8R]

19. Bush looked into his own future

and sees no legacy at all.

Eminem is right... you only get one shot
and Georgie has blown it.

[LibDemAlways]

21. It hit him that one day the guy in the

box is going to be him and Pickles is going to have to pay a bunch of people to be "mourners." Otherwise the only people lining up to get close to his casket will be the multitudes waiting to take a piss on it.

[bdamomma]

23. thank you for saying that, pissing on it or spitting on it.

I have no respect for that man.

[badgerpup]

47. Check THIS out...

In my trivia-stuffed mind was the memory that Lord Castlereagh's coffin was stoned as it was carried through the streets.
OK, DU says you gotta provide a link for stuff, so I looked him up.

http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/PRcastlereagh.htm
There's lots more, but this really caught my eye...

Lord Liverpool's government decided to take action to prevent further large meetings demanding social reform. In November 1819, Parliament was assembled and Castlereagh introduced in the House of Commons the severe measures that became known as the Six Acts. Castlereagh, who was the government's spokesman for civil matters in the House of Commons, along with Lord Liverpool and Lord Sidmouth, the Home Secretary, took the blame for these repressive measures and the men were booed whenever they appeared in public.

Now let's take a look at the Six Acts...
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/PRsix.htm
1) Training Prevention Act A measure which made any person attending a gathering for the purpose of training or drilling liable to arrest. People found guilty of this offence could be transportated for seven years.

(2) Seizure of Arms Act A measure that gave power to local magistrates to search any property or person for arms.

(3) Seditious Meetings Prevention Act A measure which prohibited the holding of public meetings of more than fifty people without the consent of a sheriff or magistrate.

(4) The Misdemeanours Act A measure that attempted to reduce the delay in the administration of justice.

(5) The Blasphemous and Seditious Libels Act A measure which provided much stronger punishments, including banishment for publications judged to be blaspemous or sedtious.

(6) Newspaper and Stamp Duties Act A measure which subjected certain radical publications which had previously avoided stamp duty by publishing opinion and not news, to such duty.

These measures were opposed by the Whigs as being a suppression of popular rights and liberties. They warned that it was unreasonable to pass national laws to deal with problems that only existed in certain areas. The Whigs also warned that these measures would encourage radicals to become even more rebellious.

I've got a rock collection.

[tavalon]

52. If I have my way

He will spend many a year at the Hague before facing that end.

[fooj]

48. "pay a bunch of people to be mourners"...

You reap what you sow.

[WinkyDink]

22. He is attempting a simulation of solemnity, being an affectless psychopath.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

27. Yep...my take on it too n/t

[GeorgeGist]

24. Maybe he's pondering...

his future.

[flordehinojos]

25. is he afraid saddam hussein is going to jump of the coffin & get him?

that is what he looks like. maybe ford's coffin makes him look with his mind's eye his bloody hands and right straight into the face of death.

[blues90]

28. He had that same

smirk on his face as always when he walked in then it looked like he turned to pickles and said , alright , like lets get out of here .

What a joke this was , it took less than a few minutes for them to come and go .

[JohnnyLib2]

29. prescription uppers?

post-holiday help?

[peekaloo]

32. I burst out laughing when I saw a clip on the news.

Looked like he was trying to sneak up on the damn thing and then Pickles nodded out. }(

[DemBones DemBones]

35. To be fair, Bill Clinton looks bad in the photo showing him and Hillary

by Ford's casket. Former presidents (and soon to be former presidents--Dubya) probably feel a teeny bit nervous at funerals for former presidents. As someone else said, Dubya also has to think about his parents dying. I can't imagine being 60 and still having living parents.

[Dulcinea]

37. He looks like he's about to barf.

Or pee himself.

[Philosoraptor]

39. He saw a ghost. His own.

[The Backlash Cometh]

40. I just wish that these CEO kings would feel a little terrified before

making these catastrofucked decisions for everyone.

You do know that we have to make an example of Cheney, Rove and Bush in order to send a message? Otherwise, these businessmen that want to rule the world, are just going to keep making these decisions and get us closer to our final days, and this planet can't take another swollen headed capitalist president.

[symbolman]

41. Bush suddenly realizing that

maybe there IS a JESUS after all, and if there is, he may just be FUCKED. :)

Either than or he forgot his reading glasses and can't make out the name on the coffin, so he doesn't know who it is..

[matcom]

42. He is thinking that was his last hope of a pardon

off to the gallows George

[Miss Chybil]

43. Sorry. I don't see terror on that face.

You're putting emotions onto somebody who has none.

[elehhhhna]

44. More like Surprise -- his handlers probably told him he was going to a BBQ or something.

[smoogatz]

45. Relax yourselves. He's just trying to hold in a fart.

That's all he's thinking about. In fact, that's usually all he's thinking about.

[jmowreader]

46. That's not terror

Well, it is in a way.

It looks to me like he's got to go poopies really, really bad, and he can't raise his hand to ask permission to go to the little dictator's room.

[tavalon]

49. How about both?

I think he's terrified that people may finally realize that he doesn't just cut brush when he's down on the pig farm.
