Bush flips off protestors during his bus ride in Pennsylvania

[dumpster_baby]

yeah, you read that right! Remember that waving from the front window of the tour bus PR trip in PA that Bush did recently? Well, he flipped off some protestors who held up a "More Trees, Less Bush" sign.

A blurry and useless photo of the "crime scene" can be found here:

1. Sure wish that they had obtained a clear photo of his

presidential gesture.

2. Wouldn't it be funny if they flipped him off in return.

3. He did get flipped off ... and mooned ... and ...

See this story about the protesters in the VERY conservative town of Lancaster, PA, during the Bush visit (comments from local readers at the end ... surprisingly positive, considering how right-wing Lancaster is).

And here's one of the many threads in which this was discussed.

4. can't see it at all

can anyone else? honestly I wish that glare wasn't there. All I see is the chimp's head staring forward.

5. So someone says

Bush flipped them off, and even though there's no photo proof, he is believed? Am I missing something here? Was it a large group of people who saw it?

Just seems kinda "my 15 minutes"-ish to me.

6. but read about the other protesters.

The seven guys who stripped to their thongs to form an "Abu-Ghraib pyramid" as protest. Bush must have been furious; I'm sure he was told he'd be rolling through COMPLETELY FRIENDLY COUNTRY.

In the days leading up to the Bush visit, however, local Republican leaders were complaining about how the Bush campaign did not check anything with them, or ask for their assistance, before setting up the campaign stops in southcentral PA. So, for that, and for so many other reasons, Bush deserves all the bare liberal butts in his face he can get!

7. Yes, the whole episode is hilarious

but being the skeptic I am, the "Bush flipped us off but I don't have a clear photo but here's one that may or may not be it" seems hokey to me. If Bush was human, he would've laughed at the whole thing.

LiveJournal is cool.
