President of the United States shows protester the FINGER
Adam, Brendan, and I rose our banner (the More Trees, Less Bush one) and he turned to wave to our side of the road. His smile faded, and he raised his left arm in our direction. And then, George W. Bush, the 43rd president of the United States of America, extended his middle finger.

Read that last sentence again.
I got flipped off by George W. Bush.

3. Did anyone have a camera? This is why protesters have to
be far away from dumbya. Apparently he has no self control and his entourage are afraid of this very thing, that he'd do this plebeian act. We've got the VP saying, "Go fuck yourself," and the President making obscene gestures. Integrity in the WH.

4. First Cheney, now GWB? Must have touched a raw nerve and a lot of raw
nerves are now being exposed so likely the best is yet to come. How sweet it is!

8. Busted the economy
broke every treaty, started illegal war, let 911 happen, devalued the dollar, weakened the Constitution, stopped stem cell research, etc. Raising his middle finger is just redundant.

12. Reminds me of the story of the
Edited on Mon Jul-12-04 02:48 PM by Cyrano
kid in parochial school who has had it and tells a nun "fuck you."

He gets sent down to the head father who lambasts him and the kid says, "And fuck you too, father."

The priest turns red and responds, "Do you know who you're talking to? Do you realize I'm in charge of this whole school? Do you realize some day I might be a Cardinal? Do you realize some day I could even be Pope? ... Fuck me? FUCK YOU."

Well, that about sums up King Greorge's attitude towards all of us.

15. Didn't Karen Hughes claim
that W never uses bad language?

I guess flipping someone the finger isn't quite the same thing?
