1. Enraging; how many soldiers and Iraqis died today? nt

[The Backlash Cometh]

17. It's important for all right-wing white men to feel like their way of life

isn't threatened. So some soldiers will die to make sure the world is free for Americans to go shopping.

[soothsayer]

2. I sure hope he doesn't fall overboard and become tangled in the propeller and then

attacked by sharks. Especially since he ain't wearing a life preserver.

[aquart]

4. Yeah, I sure hope that, too.

[TwilightGardener]

9. ...

:rofl:

[whistle]

3. Are those photos current, I've seen these before several years back

[whistle]

31. Well okay I believe it, and they have done this numerous times before

...with Pappy Bush. I'm surprised Pappy isn't weeping on the decks, must be the ocean air or really good anti-depressants/ anxiety drugs.

The whole fucking Bush family are total phonies and hypocrites. Pappy is actually worse then all the rest. What an actor!

[helderheid]

33. While the world burns.

[Raven]

5. I must say, his father looks better than he does! And who is

the third guy in the picture? Is Alberto baiting their hooks for them?

[1620rock]

7. Outrages!!!

[CatWoman]

10. it appears that Poppy has ditched his "41" hat

[helderheid]

12. He's looking awful.

[Eurobabe]

8. Bush is a modern day Marie Antoinette: LET THEM EAT CAKE!!

[helderheid]

26. PERFECT.

[Supersedeas]

39. sad but true

[Stephanie]

11. What do you expect from the Vacation President?

.

[uppityperson]

13. Don't complain. It's safer than having him actually DO something.

better out fishing thank thinking up something to do.

[helderheid]

14. Reminds me of the Decider remake...

"Sitting in the White house garden talking to the Lord
My thoughts would be busy busy hatching If I only had a brain"

15. Parasitic administration. (reposting again, here)

As I woke this morning, the word "parasite" was in my mind.

Bush/Cheney are a parasite on America. With the help of previous parasitic administrations the country was numbed down to the level below which they would react. And then the parasite took control. Now almost nothing gets our attention.


Numbing can take two stages. Repealing of the Fairness Doctrine helped to make an unbalanced and unfair media. In other words, they lie to us. The other is to make politics so ugly that no one will pay attention. That is happening to me right now. For the first time in years I can look at the Greatest page and see topics I know nothing about. And I don't care enough about. It's sick. It's the opposite of how it should be in a healthy world. We should be thrilled that the money we earn to give to the government actually is going toward things that help us.

And the parasite is obvious. Halliburtons. And not so obvious. Changing the political metabolism of the country so that the parasite may continue on unabated.

16. No belt for Dumbya...those loops are tricky....nt

18. it looks like the mate in the second picture

is untangling the snarl dimson made in the line after the cast in the first picture.

19. "This is a blank check," he said.

"This is a blank check," he said. Congress is ceding, lock, and barrel, its power to declare war -handing it over to a chief executive. Congress might as well just shut the door and put a sign up there that says, 'Going fishing.'"

Senator Byrd in October 2002...

[slipslidingaway]

32. YW n/t

[Parche]

21. It Is Safe To Go In The Water

REALLY IT IS.....:rofl: :rofl: :bounce:

[barbtries]

22. thats the story

that's the disconnect. like that asshole standing outside crawford refusing to talk to cindy sheehan and saying that HE needs to get on with HIS life. bastards.

[helderheid]

25. Sums it up perfectly. It's outrageous.

[kskiska]

23. Oh, so he's back to his east coast elite life from whence he came

Sipping white wine spritzers in Kennebunkport. He's probably wearing his Bermuda shorts without socks, too.

[TwilightGardener]

24. Who fishes in button-down shirts, khakis, and a belt?

Why, "fishermen" who hire someone else to touch the bait, that's who.

[Mabus]

27. You mean Poppy's belt with the American flags?

:eyes: How typical of the Bushes.

[helderheid]

28. USA! USA!

[Mabus]

29. When they do it it smacks of exploitation

I really hate that whole family.

[TwilightGardener]

34. They wear it like a brand. USA--The Bushes' private label.

[Mabus]

36. What do you bet the belt was made in China?

I kind of doubt that Poppy bought the belt himself. He probably got it from Bar-Bar or lil Bush. Bar-Bar and Junior seem to the ones who more concerned with appearance than substance.

[TwilightGardener]

38. Agreed--it's pretty tacky. Looks like an import. And you're right about

Bar and Jr.--at least Poppy has demonstrated SOME love for this country in the past (especially as a fly-boy in WW2). Wife and son just rode on his past honor and decency.

[PA Democrat]

30. Now we know where Junior gets his penchant for wearing things with

the presidential seal.

[Mabus]

35. And there was a presidential seal on the guitar lil Bush got during Katrina

It's all about playing dress up for them.

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

37. Tweedledumb and Tweedlestupid, ignoring reality yet again...

Runs in the family, no?

Betcha *'s off to Crawford again soon after this, to live in his fantasy world some more. :eyes:

Notice how Poppy's mouth is hanging wiiiide open in that first shot? Maybe he got a peek at his boy's latest approval ratings!!!

[helderheid]

40. LOL!!!
