Go ahead.......Belgium says, "Piss on George Bush"!
WHEN JOHAN VANDE LANOTTE, Belgium's Vice Prime Minister, goes to the toilets today, he finds the urinals in the offices of his ministry decorated with stickers. They show an American flag and the head of George W. Bush. "Go ahead. Piss on me," the caption says. Vande Lanotte is one of Bush's hosts in Brussels. Is peeing on your guest's head appropriate? In Belgium it is. After all, Brussels' best known statue is that of "Manneken Pis," a peeing boy.

The piss stickers, specially made to be used in urinals, can be seen these days in the public toilets of Belgian schools, youth clubs, and pubs. They were designed by Laurent Winnock, president of the Young Socialists, the youth branch of Vande Lanotte's Socialist party. Winnock did his creative work during his office hours, which would not be worth mentioning if Winnock did not work in the offices of Vice Prime Minister Vande Lanotte, as one of his press spokesmen.

15. I think Bush has had an American flag on his crapper for a long time.
Cause he has been shitting on America since before he took office.

5. Wonder if they are copyrighted?
Could we just make some of these over here and give some frustrated guys a target?

12. I went to an anniversary party last fall, and
These stickers were passed out to every guest--I've never seen them anywhere but my own house, though....

They are hilarious.

17. My dad brought that statue home after WWII
He was released from a POW camp in Germany when the war ended and spent a week in Paris before returning home. I remember that figurine well as a child.


The world famous Manneken Pis has been performing since 1619.

The statue is very often dressed.

He has a wardrobe of more than 600 costumes, which are all preserved in the City Museum at the Grand Place.

18. HIGHLY discrimnatory!
If there are not targets in the ladies room it's just purely unfair! I'm sure there are plenty of females in Belgium who'd like the same (treat)ment, or maybe they get to tinkle on pickles.
