PHOTO: Nothing says class quite like toting a Marlboro into your family's Christmas photo

[Bluebear]

"in a world at peace...."

"support UNICEF..."

Oy.

[Nailzberg]

1. And I think Neil is swiping money from Barbara's purse.

Not much changes in this family.

[College Liberal]

15. lol

[XemaSab]

41. Carrying money is for the little people

:eyes:

[diane in sf]

Actualy I think the blond one is Marvin

[Nailzberg]

62. There are names under the photo.

[Buzz Clik]

56. Backwards. He's trying to put her credit cards back in the purse.

He'd been out all day spending her money, and now he's trying to cover his tracks.

No doubt, Daddy will bail his sorry ass out of trouble.

[Prisoner_Number_Six]

2. What makes you think that's tobacco?

:evilgrin:

[sakabatou]

3. World peace, my ass

[JeffR]

4. "Marlboro? No, it's Michoacán, man, Michoacán"

"Dude, that stuff you sold me wouldn't get a fly high."

That's why Babs is laughing at him.

[Unrepentant Fenian]

5. Excuse

He was probably stoned at the time.

[babylonsister]

6. You're right. It's untenable, unless you're *Jr., , who got away with so

much shit! :grr: In my family that would have been unheard of.

[Rene]

7. Isn't Marvin flipping the bird....and what's with all 4 boys ties being flipped over their right

shoulder?

[alphafemale]

13. I noticed the tie "thing" too.

That could be just an inside family joke I guess.

Not knowing what members of that brood became I'd think that was a cute family that looked delighted to be around each other. A bunch of kids cuttin' up.

But I can't "un-know" what I know now.

So I can't see this as a "charming" family photo.

And the cigarette is REALLY low class.

What? You couldn't put the damn thing down for a minute?

[DesertRat]

8. Interesting that they called him "George, Jr." at the time

I thought he was always Dubya. :eyes:

[ColbertWatcher]

9. WTF Barbara?

I wonder what is going on in her "beautiful mind"????

[gateley]

10. I had no idea they had FIVE KIDS! Are Dorothy and Marvin still around? nt

[melody]

12. They actually had six, Robin died when she was four

They weren't allowed to talk about her after she died. Seriously.

[asdjrocky]

31. And none of them went to the funeral.... weird. n/t

[melody]

33. They all went golfing instead ... even weirder n/t

[eppur_se_muova]

43. IIRC, they left her body to be buried in NY ... even weirder. nt

[melody]

55. And never let any of the children cry beyond one hour - weirder still n/t

[bahrbearian]

42. "Lets all go golfing"

Where do you think "Now ,Watch this drive" came from

[troubleinwinter]

18. "Doro" is married to Robert "Bobby" Koch, Pelosi's wine lobbyist to DC.

Marvin's around & up to something, not sure what.

[Twist_U_Up]

46. Marvin is he was in charge of WTC complex and the two airlines involved in 911

up until 9-11-01

[melody]

11. That looks like a bad Sears catalog shot

And since when is an entire family called by one guy's name?

[cali]

16. This looks like every preppy photo christmas card

of its era. In fact, it's not all that different from current ones. :puke:

[Sanity Claws]

24. That's what I thought too

Very preppy. Any idea when this photo was taken? 1968 or so?
World was certainly not at peace but the Bushes were never into truthtelling.

[cali]

25. My guess is a couple of years later

anywhere between 1970 and 73.

[cboy4]

14. Oh give him a break. Maybe he couldn't find his crack

pipe at the last minute.

[Toots]

64. Republicans invented crack in the eighties

:shrug:

[TomInTib]

17. Welcome to Sans-a-Belt Nation

"from all the George Bushes"

They should all be hanged at sunrise.

[Lisa]

19. re: that era, a friend of mine once remarked, "every fool smoked back then"

And this photo proves it.

[Rex]

20. Looks like dad is thumbing one too!

Locked and loaded for the fake 'family' photo. The evil family xmas card.

[soothsayer]

21. "From all the George Bushes"?

[lumberjack_jeff]

40. Yeah, like blueberry bushes, 'cept with poisonous fruit. n/t

[Ian David]

22. Even back then, Republickers had no idea how to use punctuation. n/t

26. Is it just me or does Babs look older then than she does now?

[asdjrocky]

32. I thought the same thing... undoubtedly, there's a portrait there somewhere in the attic. n/t

[flying rabbit]

61. Nah...

She bathes in the blood of virgin girls...much more soothing.

[lostnfound]

27. Do all of the boys look like hoodlums or is it just me?

Maybe not Neil but he has other issues.

[Ezlivin]

28. Looks like an informal portrait

I get stuffier looking ones from my own friends.

[brazos121200]

29. And what's with the oh-so-cool coat over the shoulder look?

It looks so fake. One or two doing it maybe, but all four?

[asdjrocky]

30. How is it possible that Barbara looks younger now than she did then? n/t

[K Gardner]

44. All the Bushbots are routinely taken back to the factory for refurbishing and upgrading.

Routine injections of formaldehyde preservative help.

[Redstone]

34. BFD.

Redstone

[Bluebear]

37. Thanks for weighing in.

[Redstone]

49. You're welcome. Bush used to smoke cigs??? OMIGOD, the OUTRAGE!!!

Redstone

[Bluebear]

50. This has nothing to do with him being a smoker. Whatever, Redstone.

[graywarrior]

35. I can't take my eyes of the size of Jeb's head.

Plus they're all doing that tie swipey thing. *holes.

[NNN0LHI]

36. I wonder who had to pry the rum and coke out of his other hand? n/t

[Kucinich4America]

57. Rum??

Wouldn't that run off the mirror? :evilgrin:

[NJCher]

38. strictly amateur

Not only is the syntax exceptionally bad, look at the layout. There's no balance or symmetry. It literally looks like bush sr or beautiful mind babs wrote it out at the printer's office and told them a proof wasn't necessary.

The wording is ridiculous, too. "All the George Bushes." How awkward, not to say etiquette-challenged.

Just one more example of ignorant, ignorant people. And to think the marlboro man is supposedly in charge of the world's biggest economy/military/demockery. As the arresting officer in the Larry Craig case said, "No wonder we're going down the tubes!"



Cher

[Eurobabe]

39. And Dorothy, we're not in KANSAS anymore

:rofl:

[eppur_se_muova]

45. When I saw the title, my first thought was "Which Bush? Probably W."

He's so true to form.

[rpannier]

47. How do you know he doesn't have a Virginia Slim cig

[Kucinich4America]

59. actually, if you have seen the closeup's of Chimpy's hand in the photo

it looks more like a joint.

[WinkyDink]

48. How many "All the George Bushes" ARE there in that photo? Jeez Louise.

And NPD GWB is the ONLY one full-front, both arms unobstructed.

[Neshanic]

51. Ugh! Satan's adopted WASP family.

[Olney Blue]

52. The reason Olan Mills Photography went out of business.

[Kucinich4America]

60. I thought it was their rude telemarketers

I actually got a death threat from one of those assholes because I kept hanging up on him.

[DemGa]

53. How bizarre to call them all "George Bushes"....nt

[Fire Walk With Me]

54. Looks like they've since had family-wide surgery for the unibrow thing.

[Buzz Clik]

58. George's juvenile desire to make statements in photos never ended.

The "hard ass" cigarette in the family Christmas photo, flipping off the camera, and his latest endless run of his dumbshit "hook 'em horns" symbol in photo after photo as President.

Some people never grow up.

I trying to recall.... has anyone ever suggested that Bush simply doesn't have the gravitas to handle the job? :sarcasm:

[Orsino]

63. The scary part is that Bar hasn't aged. n/t
