1. tense between Bush and Blanco
But I don't get a feeling of tension from Nagin. He looks quite comfortable

20. He isn't looking down on him,
down on him is where he wants to be.

That's lust in his eyes.

16. Damn straight Blanco's tense. Remember, she WON a huge battle
when she smacked down the Bushcos and said you're not taking control of my state. She knows the man hates her.

I don't think people appreciate what a huge thing she did, that she was in the middle of a crisis and still had the strength to stand up to the biggest political machine I've ever seen and WIN.

Takes a woman every time. Yeah, I'm talking about you too Ms. Sheehan.

7. Don't you think Bush demanded to be in the center of the photo?
He's such a petty tyrant that I bet he did.

8. wouldn't you LOVE to know what Nagin and Blanco are thinking.......
Blanco: "This worthless piece of shit to my left did me in. I should've nailed him and his lying ass righit away. Now I'm screwed"


Nagin: "He really DOES look like a chimp. Actually, his face looks like a chimp's ass!"


Bush: "This is complete bullshit. No one said I'd have to do shit like this if I took this job. I need my bike!!!!! And where's Karl? That worthless piece of shit had to get kidney stones while I was on vacation. This is all his fault. And where was Dick? Where the hell were all these people who are supposed to be doing this good-for-nothing job for me?!!"

12. bush looks like he's going to cry
blanco looks like she going to hurl

nagin looks like he's trying to psych bush out by staring at him. probably why bush looks like he's about to cry.

14. instructions from Rove to Chimpy
"Don't let yourself be photographed smiling at or making eye contact with Blanco or Nagin...look straight ahead...we can't have pictures of you according respect to those two, cause they're the ones we have to try and pin this on to get you off the hook..."

17. Bush seems afraid of Blanco
Notice how much space she has and how he crowds into Nagin's space. I'm liking Blanco better all the time. :rofl:

Is this the new George Bush? And is Mary Landrieu in a "Free Speech" zone?

24. This is a still picture...I saw some video of them...
Blanco very seriousa and with considerable body space from Bush. Bush and Nagin like two old buds cooking up a scheme to screw Blanco at the same time.
