IMAGE: After * Meets The 9/11 Commission He Does A Nazi Salute To Press

What is with the White House press office... is it just me or is this image inappropriate.

1. My first thought was that the media was really interested...
...in a comment from his crotch. More of a lame left handed wave than any kind of salute.
Wave "Bye bye", Georgie...

2. just you. not every raised arm is a nazi salute
even if it's done by a nazi.

everything bush has and hasn't done regarding 9/11 is inappropriate.

but i'm afraid a left-arm, bent-elbowed, relaxed-handed, loose-postured pointing gesture doesn't quit qualify as a nazi salute.

besides, since when would bush ever show so much respect as to salute anyone, nazi-style or otherwise?

3. its just you
the weakling's limp-wristed gesture is not a Nazi salute.

5. Is he left handed?
Normally you would wave with your right arm,at least I would.

7. He looks like a git that much is certain...
A patrician git. I agree that the wee bend in the arm makes it a little less like a nazi salute.. though if you look at the original it is not that obvious.. I enlarged the image and added more light.

The wave is at best one of those.

"Shut up little peasants I will tell you what to think" waves.

At worst it is part of some imperial nazi fantasy.
