I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
Does he have a tummyache?
Indi---gestion.
If you make fun of W, the terrorists will have won.
frist
WTF refers to what, exactly?
Eat your heart out.
Then you got the guy with his hand in his shirt and the girl who apparently has two hearts because she has crossed her arms.
"arrg... the antidepresssants give me gas."
Where's Mary-Kate and Ashley?
So THAT'S where he keeps his heart.
Now, if he only had a brain...
I think the terrorists are attacking my colon. Either that or the bean burritos.
What's up with Olson's Napoleon immitation?
Um, isn't this just a tad childish? So his arm is a few inches too low, who fuckin' cares?
Plop, plop, fizz, fizz, oh what a relief it is. NOT!
He's lost heart.
Ouch.
Idiot.
My stomach hurts when I have a hangover. Give the chimp a break.
Ah ha! That's exactly where the heart is in Betelgeusian Slime Devils.
One too many slips I think, "Mr. President".
If there was a picture of Kerry doing this it'd be on the Drudge report.
Bush may actually be praying because it seems he missed the Sept. 1st filing deadline to be on the ballot in Florida. Not that that's going to stop him, apparently, since his brother runs the state anyway. The St. Petersburg Times has more on the story.
I agree with Jake.
"... So his arm is just a few inches too low, who fuckin' cares?"
This might make sense if we'd ever seen a picture of anyone else with his hand in that spot when a crowd is putting hands over hearts. Can't think of a single time.
And what I consider "childish" is posts that start with "um."
I cannot stand Ted Olson, and could not stand his wife, but she died in a horrific way, and you people are assholes.
So he has been taken over by an alien life force that's living in his belly and will spring out November 3.
Now we know why he didn't want to take that flight physical.
Well, lets see, he's clearly covering his navel. Maybe he's protecting evil juices from erupting through that portal.
Nah, he's wondering if there is room in there after his sticks he head up his butt again like normal for a workday.
Or it might just be possible that he has no heart at all. Yeah, that's it.
Kinda reminds me of this one.
What a dickweed.
He's medicated. No doubt.
OMG, that picture.
WTF is he thinking?
He's not.
Help!
More far reaching by Atrios. The "unbiased" blogger, like Dan Blather is "unbiased" in his reporting?
Atrios, you stuck with the AP story about the crowd in WI booing Clinton. Now, you are really showing your desperation by sticking to far reaching pictures.
Give it the fuck up.
Barbara Olson was a lawbreaker. It was illegal to use a cellphone on an airplane and she did it anyway.
How anyone could have sympathy for someone that flaunts the Rule of Law is beyond me.
"O-Kay, did my one-second salute to the people who saved my political ass; now it's on to scare up more mon --oh, SHIT, the camera's still there!"
Maybe his breakfast burrito is fighting back.
Then you got the guy with his hand in his shirt and the girl who apparently has two hearts because she has crossed her arms.
Perhaps she feels violated - looks like she'd be right in Dubyas age range, wouldn't you agree?
Um, isn't this just a tad childish?
Yes it is, but it is still funny and a wee-bit disturbing. If this is what Bush does when he tries to "place his hand over his heart", he obviously failed middle-school biology.
When the fuck has Atrios ever said he was "unbiased"? And you're still pissed off Rather won't knuckle in to the all-mighty Charles Johnson and his man MS Word skilzz?
Dude. Relax. Have a donut.
Is our children learning anatomy?
I shouldn't have had that ham sammich.
Or that rock of coke.
Jake, Michael, et al.
Bush has shamed and slimed the victims of these attacks almost daily for three fucking years. In fact, he's done it so much that one might think he'd get the *form* right....
""... So his arm is just a few inches too low, who fuckin' cares?""
Well, the six year old to his right managed to figure out where her hand was supposed to go. I'd have thought that an honourably discharged veteran would have realised that holding his tummy wasn't actually part of the activity. Maybe he was moving upward and the camera just caught it at a bad time? Nah.
G-d, Arthur can sit still and be reverent. And yet here's the leader of the free world.. .
"The President signifies that the whole spectacle is making him sick by placing his hand over his stomach."
I believe that he's practicing his "Napolean" pose.
Ya know what's really funny to me? The AP ran this picture. As in the Associated Press. A few years back I ran into some leg-men for CNN - sound guy, camera guy and nameless cat who actually gets the news the Talking Heads yodel about - and we had a nice chat about the decline in quality at the House That Ted Built. Seems the grunts were sick at how hard a turn to the Sycophant Right CNN had made. And this was two years ago. One wonders what they think now.
So his arm is a few inches too low, who fuckin' cares?
How do you know it's not a few inches too high? It's the cheech-n-chong salute. He ain't done expoiting the 9-11 dead.
he actually looks like the thorazine is taking hold and his wife pickles has that distant "wild turkey" squint - of course, a librarian on wild turkey, but wild turkey nonetheless
(burp!) Man, maybe I shouldn't have eaten the poor.
-
At least his hand isn't "lower"
The President signifies that he doesn't really give a rat's ass.
That's what he signifies.
"Place my hand over my heart? Whafor? 'Respect the dead?' Why, they're already dead, ain't they?"
I know, I know...it goes nowhere, and sounds precisely like "vicious Bush-bashing."
But this picture looks like a bit more than: "Oops! Forgot where my heart was!"
It speaks volumes.
Flout. Flout flout flout? Flout, flout flout flout - NOT FLAUNT!
to quote rodney dangerfield, the first lady musta been something before electricity
"And what I consider "childish" is posts that start with "um."
hueyplong"
Um.
Oh never mind. |
I'd have to agree that to continue to discuss Jenna Bush's abortion that Jenna Bush recently had to get performed on herself, that is, the abortion that Jenna Bush got, well, to discuss that specific abortion of Jenna Bush's would be totally irresponsible of us to discuss Jenna Bush's abortion at this time.
In case anyone tries to discuss Jenna Bush's abortion on this thread, I wanted to pre-emptively warn everyone that Jenna Bush's abortion is off limits.
This photo is obviously a forgery composed on Microsoft Word.
WTF=What The F**k
Smirky's hungry.
Hey, even wingnuts get hungry sometimes.
to far reaching pictures.
What's the picture reaching for, exactly?
The President signifies that he doesn't really give a rat's ass.
Yeah. That's how it looks to me. The boy king can't be bothered to signal respect.
It's a minor slight by a king who's built a legacy on not giving a rat's ass about considerably important issues.

.
What's with the gesture anyway? Is it supposed to be symbolic, or something? The hand-over-heart thing is one of those strange American customs that doesn't translate well anywhere else, I think.
I can't recall seeing anyone ever doing it here, except maybe some veteran on Remembrance Day who probably picked it up from tv, and I think most people were looking at him like he was more naff than you'd expect from a veteran.
You'd think a monkey would have a better sense of where his organs are.
His hand was on its way up to his heart, but then he decided it was too much trouble, so he stopped part-way.
It's not like he's ever done anything like that before, give him a break.

George W. Bush - his heart is in the WRONG place.
He is evil. Pure evil.
i will now leap headfirst into sci fi extrapolation:
they are all aliens.
failing that explanation, perhaps mr. bush's heart just isn't in the right place.
it's the Home Depot salute. saw blades and low prices for all.
"Thank Jesus they're not making me pat my head with my other hand."
First of all, "um" is a perfectly cromulent way to start a post. But I'd say his hand is at least a foot too low. It's really not acceptable for the guy who is running on 9/11 to memorialize it that poorly.
I think Pretzel-Boy is having a flashback to the tummy troubles he undoubtably suffered on 9/11 as he used Air Force One as his personal escape pod-quel plouk!
Perhaps the picture was snapped as his hand was on the way up to his heart.
Move along now.
"What's with the gesture anyway? Is it supposed to be symbolic, or something?"
Placing one's hand over one's heart is the civilian equivalent of a salute by one in uniform. It's not exactly outre', at least not on this continent. In truth, it is very much along the lines of namaste or a vow of allegiance to the crown.
This incredibly lackadaisical execution of the gesture is, justifiably, deemed to indicate contempt and arrogance.

He's hammered.

"Wait, who's that girl behind me with TWO hearts? And why's that guy behind her reaching for his wallet? And why are those two hombres in the funny white hats shielding their eyes? Ohhhh, now my tummy's gone a-rumblin'."
Looks like he has that "My Pet Goat" feeling. Baaaaaa.
Remember the images of Germans giving the Nazi salute with their arms high above their heads, and Hitler returning it with his arm considerably lower? Just remarkin'...
By the way, Godwin's law has been suspended until further notice.

Sorry ... hadda be asked.
Warp Resident, you just did my heart good--burst out laughing, and I can't stop.
These are the mannerisms of a criminal. The ceremony was ending and he was sneaking his hand away from his heart prematurely. Just as he deceived Letterman's producer when he wiped his glasses on her shirt.
Case made! A misplaced heart!

I agree, what this says about the man's real feelings for the honored dead is not amusing at all. It's as if the bastard doesn't even care enough about other people to make a symbolic gestre of respect to them. Maybe he's on hypocrisy overload, and was forced by his unconscious to show by his actions that he really doesn't give a shit. Shrub is just using the ceremony for political purposes, as he has used 911 since the day it happened.
He's just another filthy repug pig showing his utter contempt for the Amurkin sheeple.
"Dear Lord, my liver is giving out!"

The Bush White House was behind 9./11. I've felt that way since Day One and I still feel that way.
These creeps who stole a presidential election had to make their braindead figurehead look presidental...as well as have an excuse to starting yanking our freedoms away from us.
Hey, if a couple thousand innocent people had to die, oh well....
Besides, there's nothing but liberals, feminists and fags in New York City anyway, right?
Even if I'm wrong, they don't want bin Laden blabbing. Like Saddam Hussein, Osama knows too much!
"It's true! This man has no dick!"
I can tell you where that quote comes from, and it's equally apt.
I don't know what's more atrocious? the fact that he's an evil alien whose 3 chambered heart actually is in his stomach? or the fact that he had the fucking nerve to do this at the time the first plane hit the north tower.

i was thinking more like gilligan after years of absinthe abuse
Since we all know his mind works slower than the average human ("Wait a minute, instead of sitting here pretending to be able to read this childrens' book, maybe I should do somethin' about those buildings blowin' up!"), perhaps he was thinking:
"Oh my (recently rediscovered) God! My entire presidential campaign is built upon exploting this mass grave, and the innocent souls of thousands of dead New Yorkers. I think I'm gonna be sick!"
Nah. I think it'd be far too optimistic to assume that there is even the slightest sliver of a shred of decency or moral fibre within several hundred yards of the White House.
"Place my hand over my heart? Whafor? 'Respect the dead?' Why, they're already dead, ain't they?"
Amen to that! He didn't give a rip when he executed men and women in TX with little counsel and no concern for their innocence. Same in Iraq. Doesn't give a shit.
I cannot stand Ted Olson, and could not stand his wife, but she died in a horrific way

David answers his own question here.
It's kinda funny that when I googled it out of curiosity, Fablog was #1 on the hit parade.
It's late in the comment game, but I'll add a point because this picture illustrates it so perfectly.
Mark Miller is out with a new book, Cruel and Unusual and was on Franken's show Friday promoting it. He made the point, which is obvious once you see it, is that Bush gets into trouble grammatically (and in this case, with body language) when he is in a situation where he has to show empathy or compassion or self-reflection. He is incapable of expressing those sentiments and he goes terribly wrong when he tries to.
Earlier this week we heard him try to be empathetic with OBGYNs and the high cost of their malpractice insurance. He couldn't. Bush's famous shlubbing of the "Fool me once, shame on...you" was because he could not say the words "shame on me." This photo again illustrates how the President of the United States is incapable of empathy.
Miller pointed out that whenever the talk turns to revenge, payback, setting evil right, he can come up with "stunningly eloquent" ad-libs. I'm not sure I would go that far, but at least his points are coherent.
I've heard of people who's brain is in their crotch, but their heart?
Oh wait, I know! He's flying at half-staff in memory of the 9/11 victims!!
That photo is too funny!

I don't think this is a 'mistake'. I think his body language is saying:
"I'm the Commander, see. I don't have to put my hand all the way up. Other people do. But I can just do it like this, because I'm the Commander, see?"

How can anyone compare Priscilla and Wong Fu?! Talk about the starkest, loudest proof that Hollywood totally fucks up and misses the point of whatever it rips off! Priscilla was ten times the flick that Wong wanted to be! We felt positively angry at the retarded "curing violent exclusionism with violent exclusionism" bullshit at Wong's end, which, like the strange ending the producer tried to ram down the throat of Gilliam's Brazil, only seemed to make clear that most of Hollywood really do not have any talent, experience of or tie to reality, or conception of anything past as a badly thrown together sales-gimmick.
Maybe he injured his shoulder falling off a bicycle? Or a Segway? Or from a pretzel? Or off the wagon?
Thank you Kei and Yuri. To Wong Fu was an absolute disgrace.

Every time I come across a photo of Ted Olson I can't help but think that he's carring something hellish inside of him. His story about the phone calls from Barbara smells to high Heaven. I'm thinking that if he was squeezed (with the help of a truck battery and some jumper cables) that one goddamned nightmarish story would come rolling outta him...
I'm thinking some enterprising photographer said "Sir, your fly is open," before snapping the picture. Since his jacket was unbuttoned, he put his hand down to hold his jacket shut.
Caption: Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrp!
Wait - I have Photoshop, and Photoshop can be used to make pictures. The photo is obviously a hoax.
I resized it to 20 by 20 pixels, then zoomed it to 50 times it's size, then rotated it 90 degrees, then brought it in to Word, then Powerpoint, then I went out and got some lunch and some mayonayse smeared the printout, which I then re-scanned and blew up to the original size, and it kind of looked like that, once I got stoned.
What more proof do you morans need!?
If we are all very lucky he has severe pain in his pancreas, that's why his hand is there.
Also: Wong Fu was directly referred to in "Foolish", an Eddie Griffith semiautobiopic, in which it is sold as icons of manliness stretching a cross-dressing gag the Brits do best for two hours (which is pretty accurate). It is one of several horrible, horrible movies that demonstrate the remarkable talent of John Leguizamo, who is truly much brighter than his roles would lead you to believe--his cameo alone carried Collateral Damage, we would almost recomend you rent it just for his role (an America-loving drug lord who dreams of making it as a pop idol!). Also it has a sampling of the theme to the old "Wonder Woman" TV show...BUT INCLUDES THE CONDESCENDING, NASAL, MONOTONE VOCALS (it has a great bass thing, but the singing ruins it. Like that one song Howard Stern had looped because he liked the sample of the sad old man but couldn't stand the early-alternative young white poet Lordbyronning)!
its simple discomfort, this was obviously taken earlier today before his daily pissing on the graves of 9/11 victims... come on guys, you know how it feels when you'bve really gotta go...
The guy with the blue tie stand to the right of the president (our left) looks clearly disgusted to me. Tell me he's not eyeing Bush's arm position.
Come on folks, give the guy a break. Monkey arms aren't jointed like human arms.

Ya know, one of my society profs showed us Priscilla and Wong Fu one day. It was a class on gender rolls in society. This was almost 10 years ago, so cross-dressing and drag queens were still less accepted than they are now, and I think she was trying to make a point about how society views them. All I can remember thinking is, "My God, that looks so uncomfortable. And you're telling me some women do this intentionally and on purpose?"
Then and there, I quit giving a shit about women shaving their legs.
OT, but did anybody notice that Ivan is heading right for fucking Jeb? It's like "You know, Jebbie baybee, if you didn't get the message with Bonnie or Charley or Frances, maybe if I kick your ass personally, you won't work for the Devil in this next election. Run like hell, Doughboy!"
Rove told him to do it to start lowering the expectation bar again before the debates.

Waaaah, baby. Sure, she died in a horrific way, but it wouldn't have happened if the jerk she, her husband, and less than half of the voters supported had read his fucking daily briefing.
What was the title, again, Condi...?
And as far as the statement that he is a 'few inches off' well, that's using a stretchy rubber ruler... his heart, assuming he has the internals common to the rest of his species, would be about 6 inches to a foot above where his hand is.
So go home trolls. Don't you have bridges to haunt?
He wanted to cover his balls protectively, but decided it wouldn't look right.
This happens everytime he tries to express any feeling for another person.

Gazing upon that picture I have been compelled to conclude that if God chose George W. Bush, as a special dispensation, to serve America in this, her hour of greatest crisis, then the Architect of the Universe does not have a very deep bench.
NYMary, I only came up with two unhelpful entries for "Bush missed the deadline" in an advanced Google search. On a lighter note, on an advanced search of "Bush is a dick" (a contradition in terms, but nonetheless...), I got 1,260 hits! Go figure :-J.
Um, isn't this just a tad childish?
Yep. Sure is. We on the left love to laugh, giggle even. Repugs don't much like to see funny stuff & hate laughing (what a great match-up of 2 words). Most are too tightass & uptight.
I CHECKED THE VIDEO
Which is on the WH website.
The picture was taken at the end of taps as W lowers his hand from the correct position. His hand is moving as the picture is taken.
He's wrong about just about everything, but he knew where to put his hand.
Meanwhile, technicians in Iran and North Korea are carefully milling plutonium, but don't worry because Saddam is in jail!
The thought that 'It's all my fault" is giving W an icky feeling in his stomach.
Chimpy want turkee for him tummy...
N.B. the youngish fellow right behind Dubya, in the khaki pants and blue blazer, is looking downwards and beginning to make a face, as if something smells putrid. Combine this with the hand on the stomach, and I guess the bean burritos are giving Dubya indigestion, and he just cut the cheese in a major way.
That little girl in the pink plaid (pink plaid?) skirt is the only one getting it right.

I'm sorry if I'm repeating something already said, but my first thought at seeing the pic was that this MUST be what's meant by "the way to a man's heart is through his stomach".
Of course, I've also heard that the way to man's heart is through his back. 
Anyone remember this?
Yeah, that was funny. It just wasn't true.
I like Teddy "Scary Bear" Olson. He looks like he just realized his wallet's gone.
No me quiero Taco Bell
The Bush thing is a little weird but I would suggest giving Olsen (hand inside coat) and his granddaughters a little slack. His wife did go down with one of the planes so I understand that she might remain "close to his heart." As one who detests Olsen's (and his late wife's) politics but with our 25th anniversary next week and with my wife having had a breast cancer scare last month (fortunately only a scare), I can understand and respect the emotions and gestures of the Solititor General and his granddaughters. Give the poor guy and the kids a break.
As for "our" commander is chief, I guess I can't keep calling him a "gut-less" wonder. He has a gut and knows where to find it.
Re: "commander is chief"
Should have been 'Commander in Chief,' not 'commander is chief.' Blame it on fat fingers or poor typing skills.
And, on on second thought, he is still a gut-less wonder. The picture simply confirms he is heart-less. I guess gut-less and heart-less go together.
He's in his "now watch this drive" mode.
The aliens forgot to remove the intestinal probe before they turned him loose this morning.
They must have needed some kids as props. Ted and Barbara had only been married 5 years (and she was in her 40s) when she died. So, if they're his granddaughters, they're not hers, but from an earlier wife.

Olsen looks like he is trying to get his gun out so he can shoot the little girl and steal her fine hair.
"Get WIGGED out, dudes!"
JimPortlandOR, oh no, you're right! Let's be easy on the man. I say Bush needs to take a vacation to relax and rejuvenate.
wow some people are uptight.
wow.
Is this a silly, foolish biased picture to run? Of course it is.
Y'all should have seen how right-wingers treated Clinton's salutes. Whoo-eee!
We haeard stuff like "Clinton has dishonored the country and the military by doing a half-assed salute today." "Clinton does a lazy salute to his honor guard" "Clinton might as well not bother saluting if he's going to make a mess of it." Etc, etc, etc.
Hey folks, I am all for ridiculing Bush -- it's fun, and he makes it easy. However, the "girl with two hearts" some of you are making fun of is a kid whose grandmother was fucking murdered. To me, she looks as though she is consoling herself as she is reminded of this event. I'm not making specific accusations here, but anyone who thinks it is OK to make fun of a child in such circumstances should seriously reconsider their attitude. Remember how all up in arms we got at Rush making fun of Chelsea at age 13? Remember how unfair the mockery of Amy Carter was? Think about it.
P.S. He obviously would prefer to phone in his respect for the 9/11 victims. What a dope. And MAN was he toasted in that vid clip.
Apologies to Monty Python.
Undertaker: Look, we'll eat your budget surplus. Then, if you feel a bit guilty about it afterwards, we can dig a grave and you can throw up into it.
Chimp: All right.
Hey Chris-- go over to War central at the freeper sight and feel your oh-so-worthy kindship with the dead in Iraq and from world wide terrorism and get your weep on.
Phoney ass.
The girl's grandmother wasn't murdered. Her grandfather's younger trophy (?) wife was.
Hey vic -- Kiss my shiny metal ass. I have more dislike for Bush in pieces of my stool than you do in your entire body, and I don't have time to deal with dopey neologisms like "freeper". If you doubt my political bona fides because I can feel for an innocent child, I'll be charitable and say that you're drawing a conclusion based on insufficient evidence -- the only time I haven't voted for a Dem was when I wrote in for Zappa, and something tells me he wasn't a Republican. That having been said, anyone (and I mean anyone -- that includes you, pissant) who makes light of a child mourning her dead grandparent should pause to consider whether it's justified. My opinion, unless Grandma was Eva Braun, it ain't.
lookit that ol' whore round heels!
"tip me over & pour me out!"
All the high-G maneuvers that Pres. Bush performed while flying aircraft in the Texas Air National Guard must have re-positioned his internal organs.
Is there a video of the event online so we can see if the picture was taken during a hand move or whether he kept the hand in the incorrect place for a significant time?
& what if you asked him to his arms out & touch his nose?
or walk & chew gum?
My husband thinks he is reliving the feeling he had when he heard the news: "OH SHIT!" I can't believe Ted "didn't wait to her body was cold" Olson! Gee, Ted. Barbara wasn't the ground a year before you up and marry some other lucky lady. The audacity!
he was hungry!
I am in no way making fun of the people who lost their lives on 9/11. I did think it was kind of f**ck that Ted married so soon after the crash. Maybe Ted's youngest grand-daughter threatened to kick him in the nads. She looks like she can be a little hellion if she put her mind to it.
Quick question for the anyone who is a vet. Isn't he supposed to be saluting?
The guy with the blue tie stand to the right of the president (our left) looks clearly disgusted to me. Tell me he's not eyeing Bush's arm position.
Yeah, and he wore his best pair of Dockers to the sacred ceremony. Funny that his mom didn't catch that fashion statement before he left the house.
As far as I'm concerned, there's no need to apologize for hitting these fucks below the belt--kids included. Look at how NotJenna turned out...abortion and all.
He doesn't have a heart. So he improvised.
Hey, don't knock the First Gut. It has to make all the important decisions. The First 1-1/2 Brain Cells is busy working on fixing something the First Mouth said.
John G. said "George W. Bush is a Vulcan!"
More likely, he is Romulan. Similar physiology, but loves war and hates logic.
Having seen the video, I'm more concerned by Cheney's hand placement. I think the IchorPump 6.0 has descended.
The death of the Olson cunt was the only good thing to happen that day.
Go Cheney off in advance, "Michael". The death of any of the treasonous, Constitution, Enlightenment hating "elves" is a good thing.
And the sloppiness of the fratboy coward's placement of his hand is indicative of his inattention to detail and his his inherent incompetence to lead anything or anyone.
He isn't Vulcan. He's not even a Romulan. He's a cheneying Pakled cross with a Ferengi.
Can't.... lift....... hand.
T'aint nuthin' -- just this ole war wound Ah got here!
Where's his flag? You know, the one he always wraps himself in whenever 9/11 is mentioned?
WORST. PRESIDENT. EVER.
Selah.
Salutes are only rendered when in uniform, outside, or inside when reporting to a superior officer and NOT in the field. All properly rendered salutes are to be returned. However, I believe, since Reagun, it has become common for a CIC to return salutes, why, I am not sure.
I've always said that the man doesn't know his ass from his elbow, so who can be surprised at this?
true patriotism turns W's stomach.
Handover Fist,
And the kid in the Young Republicans uniform standing next to Dumb W. Ass.
I think it is his "heart." That's where they put in the batteries.
Quick question for the anyone who is a vet. Isn't he supposed to be saluting?
Monica A
Bush appears to be doing a civilian salute (hand flat over heart) as opposed to a military salute (hand on edge over eyebrow). Clinton did military-style salutes, but there was a case where Clinton tried to claim a legal privelege open to military folks and the right wing laughed it out of all further consideration.
I think the answer's pretty vague, but I think current practice is that the president acts like a civilian when saluting.
No, Bush should not have worn a uniform during his aircraft carrier photo-op.
That's just too bizarre about Olsen's wife. Talk about conspiracy theories...
1st, Bush gives a whole new meaning to the saying "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach."
2nd, Repub's blasted Clinton for not saluting properly... Pay backs a bitch!
Boo Hoo Chris.
Enlist and kill Iraquis you coward.
The photo has pretty obviously been doctored and while it is mildly funny, what do we gain by putting ourselves in the same sort of sleazy mode used by our opponents to do things like doctor photos of Kerry and Jane Fonda? Let's rise above that level of slime. There are plenty of legitimate and solid and factual reasons why another four years of Mr., Bush in office could well be marked by future historians as the start of the massive decline of our nation...economically, militarily and in global leadership.
And while we sit around giggling about doctored pictures, take a minute or two to read this....it will give you chills - and yes the author is right....NEITHER side is dealing with this:

He's clearly trying to prevent the commies from draining his Purity Of Essence. It's obvious! Where is General Ripper when you need him??
dweb, meet Haloscan. Haloscan, dweb.
No-one here is mocking mourning children, Chris. Go find deserving outlets for your outrage.
It wasn't doctored, it was published this way by the AP.
It captures him lowering his hand from his heart. Okay, I get that.
But my question is, why is he the FIRST to put his hand down. Nobody else looks like they're even thinking of lowering their "salute" yet.
Hasty, George, very hasty.
I wonder why.
black certainly covers pickles fat very nicely.
Olson married again?
Who the hell would have him?
He's scary looking!
Usamabinlazy:
Shut the fuck up, troll, and go to a Freeper board!
2 things
1 - did he have his hand over his heart at any time during the ceremony, or is this where it stayed? because...
2 - IF i were preznit, I would know how to put my hand over my heart for events like this. That's part of what preznits do.
3 - peace on earth, may we all learn, not only where our hearts are, but how to use them.
Maybe Bandar can bail him out again by reaching in and raising his arm a few inches?
Forget W. What's up with Laura? Why is she feeling herself up in public? Let's get started talking about something interesting here!!
Swear-ta-god, when I first loaded the page, the photo showed Shrub's hand in the same place, but the middle finger extended. Now it doesn't.
I was dropping in here to see another point of view. But, you people are starting to bore me. It's a picture. Why are you mocking a moment of silence?
Of all the stupid silly faces and actions photographers have caught Bush doing, you choose a solemn occasion to mock.
I have no respect to give here. None is deserved.
Perhaps the picture was snapped as his hand was on the way up to his heart.
Doubtful. Everyone else in the picture exhibits perfect placement, and one person even has another arm crossed over (probably scratching or fidgeting), clearly indicating that they have held the pose for some time. Either he has his hand oddly misplaced, or he stood around for a few seconds doing something else while the rest of the crowd was paying attention.
WHAT abou a MOMENT of SILENCE for the INNOCENT PEOPLE in IRAQ; and the INNOCENT POOR SOLDIERS whom have died and will die for the whims of political DEMAGOGUE?
Ivor Manuel prophet declaration:
“And HE said unto me, you must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.” Revelation 10:11.
Baptized with Water and Light by HIS SPIRIT: “To bring forth Judgment to the gentiles.” Isaiah 42.
“For the LORD himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout; thus says the LORD: “Hear ME you now CHOSEN and FAITHFUL!” With the voice of the Archangel; GOD’ SPIRIT. And with the trumpet of GOD; HIS written WORD; and the dead Spiritually in CHRIST shall rise first…” Thessalonians 4:16.
To open the blind eyes of the Chosen and Faithful; and bring those that are prisoners out from the dungeon or churches with flags in their pulpits which support WAR; and those that sit in darkness out of the prison house, or those living outside of Spiritual guidance. Isaiah 42.
“FOR IT IS WRITTEN,” writes Ivor Manuel to remind you of HIS WORDS:
“But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the FATHER in SPIRIT and in TRUTH; for the FATHER seeks those to worship HIM.” John 4:23.
“Howbeit when he, the SPIRIT of Truth is come he will guide you unto all TRUTH; for he shall not speak of himself; for whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak; and he will show you things to come.” “He shall glorify ME: for he shall receive of MINE, and shall renew it unto you.” “All things that the FATHER has are MINE; therefore said I that he shall take of MINE, and shall renew it unto you.” John 16: 13-15.
“I AM the LORD that is My Name; and My Glory will I not give to another, neither My Praise to graven images or memorial monuments to praise WAR.” Isaiah 42.
I heard His Voice saying:
“Political leaders of AMERICA, REPENT! You have misled the Nation.”
“Shepherds of AMERICA, REPENT! You have misled My PEOPLE.”
“Military Leaders of AMERICA, REPENT! You have misled the World.”
“Because you don’t believe in ME, UNRIGHTEOUS is your JUDGEMENT.”
Thus Says the LORD JESUS ALEUZENEV;
LORD and SERVANT of all PEOPLE, My New Name.
That is what I heard My LORD said; if you don’t believe me read John 16: 7-15 and Revelation 3: 12 and hear His Voice speaking to you Chosen and Faithful.
And I His prophet now say: ALELUYA! AMEN! ALEUZENEV!
It is written:
“AWAKE to RIGHTEOUSNESS, and SIN NOT: For some HAVE NOT the KNOWLEDGE OF GOD: I speak this to YOUR SHAME.” I Corinthians 15: 34.
“For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little and there a little.” “For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.” Isaiah 28.
“BENDITOS LOS QUE CREEN EN EL NOMBRE DEL SENOR.”
I am here to publish and declare the TRUE FREEDOM for PEACE; which is MERCY and LOVE and the DOCTRINE of OUR LORD; and the NEW NAME of the LORD, which is JESUS ALEUZENEV, LORD and SERVANT of all PEOPLE. Revelation 3:12. Thus says Ivor Manuel, prophet branch of the LORD; praying for you and PEACE for the World.
