The Crazy Looking Pickles Pics

[CatWoman]

you think she did that on purpose?

or perhaps she was trying to look younger by pulling her head back, thus the bug-eyed crazy look?

people with waddles under their chins tend to pull their heads back in order to make the waddle disappear.

I don't know -- it's just plain creepy and weird looking.

what the hell was she thinking?

[Fenris]

1. She looked like she had just sat down on an air hose.

[MrModerate]

2. Gurning -- an Anglic tradition . . .

She was trying to be a gracious hostess to the Ain't-never-gonna-be-King and his lady.

[tabasco]

3. I don't think she was thinking anything.

That's just how she looks.

Sucks to be her.

[H2O Man]

4. Looked like Al Haig .....

when he grabbed the reins of power, however briefly. That calm, cool, in-control look.

[geniph]

41. OK, that made me laugh out loud!

:-)

[lonestarnot]

5. Prunes for breakfast, crapped her pants.

[stillcool]

6. Crystal meth?...

[Avalux]

7. I think Charlie grabbed her ass.

Look at the pic - he's got his hand behind her and he's making a strange face. :D

[Tatiana]

8. You KNOW her a$$ was higher than Pookie on New Jack City. n/t

[Beetwasher]

9. It's Freakishly Bizarre

I have no idea what would make someone make that face.

[rateyes]

10. Botox hadn't worn off yet! nt

[MuseRider]

11. Man, I try never to comment on looks

like I used to but those were just scary. Not that she is but she looked either like she had been at the Ritalin bottle or that she has just awakened to discover what she was married to and how totally horrible it is. I have no clue but that was not her normal look nor was it a look anyone would consider normal. I was a little worried about her after I saw those. Freaked out, totally freaked out.

[SoCalDem]

Just a photographer with an eye for "special"

:evilgrin:

[Don Claybrook]

12. As someone said last night

"Break the pill in half, Laura".

I think she has some really, really choice medications to help her float through these difficult times she finds herself in.

[shenmue]

13. That can't be...

only Xanax. It just doesn't do that. She looks like she is mainlining rocket fuel.

If we could get the crew from "Intervention" to come down and do a show for her, I bet you some pretty interesting stuff would tumble out.

Oh man, I would pay to see that.

[Swamp Rat]

14. SOMETHING yanked her string too far too fast.

:D

[Kadie]

15. I still think of this when I see those photos....

Maybe she wishes she was Carol Burnett?

[deutsey]

16. She popped one too many "happy pills" that day

Too many of "Momma's li'l helpers" can do weird things to a person...

:evilgrin:

[amitten]

17. In all honesty, and I don't love the woman,

it looks like it was a candid moment where she was laughing (in surprise) at a joke or something. Hence the big eyes and thrown-back head. I think someone said something funny and that's how she reacted. Big deal. It's her husband who is REALLY frightening.

[CatWoman]

19. COME NOW -- you can do better than that

[stevedeshazer]

29. One more facelift and that gal has a goatee!

Everything's all freakin' hiked up.

Something is clearly wrong here.

Camilla apparently didn't drink from the same punchbowl. :)

[RebelOne]

39. What is your problem? I doubt that she has had any face lifts.

She looks just a woman her age should.

[geniph]

42. Jesus, Midori, stop posting it!

Mommy, mommy, she's SCARING me with the pictures of the crazy lady!!!

:scared:

[CatWoman]

45. bwahahahahahaha

Red isn't really her color -- she looks better in purple :D

[NV Whino]

24. That is not the only photo or from the only angle

go here

There seem to have been a LOT of candid moments.

[knitter4democracy]

31. She still looks odd in almost all of them.

You'd think someone photographed as much as she is would know her best angle and keep it there as Camilla did.

[C_U_L8R]

18. Pickled Pickles Picked A Peck Of ...

Peculiar Pictures :-)

[AZBlue]

20. It was beyond Stepford Wives! High as a kite? Dunno.

[left is right]

21. I think she has been high since the first inauguration

She is always glassy-eyed and what's with that frozen smile?

[SpiralHawk]

22. Waddle Vs. Wattle

look it up. there's a distinct difference. Although people with wattles have been known to waddle.

[AZBlue]

23. Does anyone have link(s) to them?

I wanted to show a friend and now I can't find them anywhere!

Thanks!

[NV Whino]

25. Here ya go

[AZBlue]

27. Thank you!

[NV Whino]

26. I think her Botox shrank

I really try not to rag on people's appearance, but these are soooo weird.

[melissinha]

28. at first glance it looks candid

but looking at the other pics, they were posing.... she should be an accomplished poser by now.

[DearAbby]

30. Imagine you are entertaining Royals...Your big moment

and there are people outside with bull horns totally screwing your big moment. The event becomes a nightmare.


an ol'gal can dream, can't see?

:rofl:

[DoyBoy]

32. Other nations have leaders...

We have Gomez and Morticia...

Without the warmth, of course.

[DeepModem Mom]

33. THE TRUTH, I think. I saw video of this photo op. At one point...

for a split second, Laura threw her chin up, as you might when you're flipping your hair out of your face, and her eyes went up also. She seemed to be adjusting her pose, in preparation for more pictures. I think it was at that moment that these pics were snapped.

Now, let me add that I think Laura has had too much facial work. If she hadn't had so much, I don't think these pictures would look so bizarre.

[liveoaktx]

34. >>>>>>>>>>Yes, you can see it in this video<<<<<<<<<

Ethiopian protest at Bush's Prince Charles dinner

It is OBVIOUS when you see this, that it was an quick, inadvertent motion before getting her pic taken, it was NOT a long pose.

[RebelOne]

35. I don't think she has had too much facial work, but so what

if she has. Actually she looks just as a woman her age should. I am 66 years old and some would accuse me of having work done. It's just how you take care of yourself.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

36. I don't know what she was doing or thinking at the time

But I do know that I plan on putting a copy under my kitchen sink to scare the mice away this winter. :rofl:

[KansDem]

37. I agree with your assessment that this was done "on purpose"

I posted on another thread with a related topic that it seemed the Bushistas were doing a lot of things on purpose...

It's as if they are pulling this shit on purpose.

I mean, really. Look at these photos! It's like George leaned over to Laura just before appearing before the cameras, and saying something like, "Hey, Pickles. Do something really bizarre for the world press! Hahahaha...!"

But stop and think about it: Lies to start a war; robbing the US treasury; cronyism ala Halliburton; incompetent, unqualified pals in high appointments who fuck up, resign, and then are hired back as consultants; more lies regarding FEMA; guitar playing during hurricanes; lying during the 2003 SOTU address; MIHOP/LIHOP; Terri Schiavo fiasco; Bush's utter contempt for the English language and his stupid remarks; month-long vacations, election fraud, etc. etc. etc.

It's as if what they do is deliberate and they know they'll never be called on it or held accountable. It's as if they want to become parodies of themselves!

These are truly bizarre times we live in! :crazy:

[liveoaktx]

38. No... It was NOT on purpose. It happened really quickly and the

camera happened to catch it.

I don't like the woman, she's a liar, but be fair about being caught on camera in a quick moment.

[KansDem]

40. OK, I agree with your statement regarding "being caught on camera...

...in a quick moment," but really, wouldn't one think that these people should have P.R. skills down pat by now? The Bush Family has been in the public spotlight for decades. I mean, none of the others appear to have been caught by surprise and I doubt they didn't know there would be cameras where they were strolling. It seems bizarre that Pickles was really caught off guard, considering the occasion, and seemingly unaware that cameras (and more than one at that) would be clicking.

[liveoaktx]

46. with you there-I think they're hicks despite the background

I mean, their favorite meal is cow balls and they hired a chef who knew how to cook them the special way. Bush and Laura both picked their noses in public at Ranger's games AND THAT WAS WHEN HE WAS GOVERNOR. Even in the video I posted, at the end he says something to Charles like "Don't mess up", KNOWING he's being filmed. He's just a big asshole, and neither one of them has any class.

[Iris]

43. She was fucked up.

I'd bet $$$ on it.

[Rex]

44. Thinking?

Are you sure she thinks?
