1. This is what they'll show on TeeVee
Not the protestors. Not Chimpus Khan in his tank-made-to-look-like-a-limo armored vehicle. Oh no. It will be his 500 foot march inside the bubble of reserved seats and heavily armed angry men.

4. Was the street cut off there?
How did they keep all the protestors out?

Gawd he looks like an ass!

11. They blocked off the last few feet of the parade route...
and inside this "protected zone" were bleachers where the faithful could purchase seating. This is what will probably get the lion's share of coverage on the evening news. This is the only place where the dauphin got out of his armored vehicle to wave at the simpering unwashed. Up until this closed in area, ther were very vocal and obvious protesters, throwing fruit and making noise. The motorcade raced through those intersections. The creepiest part was the "let's get ready to rumble" announcer proclaiming along the route. "Come on 13th Street! Let's wave and show the President how much you love America" and "God Bless our President". I hope someone can post some video of this orwellian disgrace.

2. That last picture
looks like Shrub is treating the fans to his impression of Il Duce. I wonder if he has been praciticing. It looks quite convincing.

28. That's what happens when you mix a PBR night and getting up before noon
Either that, or she's demonstrating her fellatio technique for those "hawt" soldiers.

37. Yeah, it's the first time
she's worn something other than a Scarlett O'Hara drapes and sofa cushions special. Remarkable.

Wait 'til you see the Mars Attacks robe she'll be sporting at the ball, though.
