Why Doesn't Prince Phillip Want To Stand Next To Laura?





And in this one Bush looks very nervous to have Prince Phillip behind him...



* Looks at queens cleavage



... And... Is it just me.. or do press photographers have it in for the dim son...

"Yes I am a monkey"


Being a dry alcoholic doesn't mean no hangovers...


And even his closest aides think its funny

[CatWoman]

1. I didn't think it possible

But Laura has out "tackied" herself with that dress.

UGH!!!!

Philip probably thinks that dress will come alive and eat him :D

[LynneSin]

5. The dress would have been ok if she didn't wear those bulky white gloves

They look like something I'd wear this winter when we're having a blizzard and I'm shoveling snow!!!

[madrchsod]

15. oh my god i didn`t notice

the gloves,dam i wish i hadn`t seen that..i have to get a drink...

[MissMarple]

22. Perhaps she forgot she would need long white gloves, and borrowed

a pair. I don't believe the dress was designed with those particular ones in mind. Other wise it's not soo... bad. I like the color. And perhaps Laura would like to join us in a drink. :evilgrin:

[hlthe2b]

I don't get whoever is dressing her....

any woman knows better (if they are hip heavy) than to wear something like that-- especially with lighter color on the bottom (and ths shape) accentuating that area... Well, at least she's not wearing a tiara (believe me, I would not have been surprised if she had...)

[devinsgram]

23. She looks absolutely terrible,

she sticks out like a sore thumb. You can't help but notice her first.
I just can't look anymore, it is making me ill. Looks like she been taking tips from Judy Woodruff.

[soothsayer]

31. This outfit gives her long, apelike arms

in addition to making her look like mickey mouse with those enormous mitts

Poor lump in the bed.

[madrchsod]

11. "yes laura

i`ve found a dress that makes your hips look even bigger"!!!!there`s nothing like a 50+ woman in a dress that makes her hips look bigger than the rest of her. she needs the fab 5 and trina and suzy to make her look presentable.

[pippin]

37. No one has commented on doofus

He looks like a total idiot. As for Laura, she looks ENORMOUS next to Philip. The royals are not tall people, so maybe he's terrified of the amazon in scarlet. Agree with everyone that dress is not flattering. I notice that repub women have no sense of style. George and Laura are just not a classy pair. Where are John and Jackie, Bill and Hil when we need them?

[shamanstar]

48. i think there are more things to make fun of

than the way georgies wife looks. how about we make fun of the real problem and focus on w.

[CMT]

2. he is offended

by body odor.

[HereSince1628]

3. She's a bloody commoner...Royals know THEY have coodies

.

[maveric]

4. Maybe she just ripped off a big juicy FART!!

Reptilian gas is REAL BAD!!

[xultar]

6. I think Prince Phillip is scared of her dress n/t

[AmericanDem]

7. maybe she ripped 1

oooopppss

[radwriter0555]

8. NO one in their right mind wants to stand next to an inbred hillbilly

fashion victim wearing traffic cop gloves with a (shudder) SKAASI 'gown'.

Hell, LIZ looks more modern being 100 years older in a vintage gown. You KNOW she recycled that one for the bushies.

[janx]

32. What's a skaasi gown?

I've never heard the term before

[kskiska]

36. She uses Bar's favorite designer

Arnold Scaasi. I can't figure out why. Anyone who designs for a toad…

[Lars39]

9. Maybe he's not sure he's supposed to be in the photo?

I imagine he's used to jumping out of the camera range by now.

[althecat]

10. More doofus pics of *

Normal with press photography of national leaders making speeches the photographers, and news editors, try hard to make the subject look normal. Now either * has such a high proportion of doofus expressions that they just can't do this with him... or they are on to him.

Is this the expression of a completely blank mind?





...Should I be standing this close to a guy with a sword?



And now I am going to levitate....





*****



It's all just far too much for Straw and Powell... they can't contain themselves...

[VolcanoJen]

13. Someone call Boondocks... I think the long search is over!!!!

Jack Straw and Condoleeza Rice

[PaDUer]

20. she wants to

tongue him..check it out..guess he knew better..

[Pastiche423]

24. Aaron!

[VolcanoJen]

25. LMAO!! We've got to email this to Aaron!!!

That's great, Pastiche!

[Pastiche423]

27. Does anyone have his email addy?

I can't find one on his website.

[Pastiche423]

29. Found it and sent!

[VolcanoJen]

38. Hooray!!!!!!!!!

Won't it be exciting if we see that photo in one of his upcoming, and undoubtedly brilliant, strips???

Great job, Pastiche!!!

[5thGenDemocrat]

28. Oooooooh! Jack and Condi sitting in a tree

K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
John
Maybe if they started screwing each other, they'd stop screwing us for a while.

[althecat]

19. Of course there is this possible explanation....

Perhaps the wire photo editors have noticed that newspaper photo selection is moving increasingly towards photos that make * look like a psychopath or a very very dim bulb. Supply & demand....

That at least would make sense :)

And if so, it will make Karl Rove's plans kinda hard to implement.

[catzies]

26. The "Blank mind" photo scares the bejeezus outta me and the

"Levitate" one is a hoot.

Why the camera angle making him look as tall as Manute Bol, I wonder?

:shrug:

[Hippo_Tron]

12. Random, but...

Prince Charles looks like Leo Mcgarry in the picture where he is walking behind Bush. I can understand why president Bartlet's cheif of staff doesn't want to stand next to Bush's mother.

[trumad]

16. uh...because he's in a can?

[soothsayer]

14. lol! shrub looks terra-fied of those bayonets

What a chickencrap. Guilty conscience from being a mass murderer, I guess.

[grasswire]

18. I think..

...Laura's gloves are a faux pas. White after September? Tsk. Tsk. (Maybe in Dallas, yeah.)

[david_vincent]

17. It's obvious

He's scared. She's a killer, after all. Governor Bush is responsible for many more deaths than his wife, but at least he didn't kill them personally.

[sujan]

21. Laura had too much beans, I guess

[LibDemAlways]

30. Phillip looks like he's ready to bolt.

He must be miserable having to appear in public with these vermin. He looks like he's just going through the motions with that phony, obviously forced "smile" behind which he's thinking, "Who the hell did I kill to be punished this way?"

[mlawson]

33. Habit of a lifetime. He is used to walking behind the Queen.

Laura is walking WITH the Queen. I'd like to come up with a humorous rason, but this time, can't think of one.

34. John King On CNN "Enjoy The Pictures"

He basically said there were two main steps taken by Bush today. The first was "enjoy the pictures, the pictures cannot help but help the President back home."

Clearly he was looking at some different pictures....

[kskiska]

35. I noticed how before dinner

Laura was conversing with Prince Charles, I think it was, on her left, while Phillip, at her right totally ignored her. Even without sound it was apparent she was speaking loudly and animatedly with that awful Texas twang. It must have been offensive to his ears.

Also, it was notable that *, even in his rented tails, walked the way way he always does, like a gunslinger, with his arms held away from his body. He can't seem to e to avoid those smirky, pursed lip poses he does.

[Scott Lee]

39. Because Pickles suffers a bit from The Vapors.

It's a well known fact in elite circles, but kept quiet to lessen her embarrasment.

[Retrograde]

40. It's all in the details

The color's not bad, and the cut of the top is OK (although the 2nd picture of Laura shows the flounce in the skirt, which is positioned at just the right spot to make her look short and broad and, well, frumpy. But it's really hard to wear flounces and not look like a frump, or at best, like one is wearing a K-Mart Blue Light Special). But it's the gloves that take it from Passable to Who Dresses Her? Now, I don't move in these circles and for all I know it's de rigeur to wear gloves at a dinner at Buckingham Palace, but these just make her look awkward - the hand position doesn't help.

My feminist conscience keeps telling me not to judge Laura Bush on her appearance, and I'm certainly not a fashion plate, but I do expect her, as a representative of the US, to look as if she had some taste, or an advisor who did. Maybe if she had a full schedule doing Good Deeds a la Eleanor Roosevelt I'd cut her some slack on her wardrobe, but what does that woman do?

42. What do they have in common?

She's way out of her depth and has a complete lack of experience in these sorts of encounters. I imagine he finds her a little bit apalling. As for Chimpie, where to begin? They're both hopeless. Not the thing at all, you know?

[Field Of Dreams]

43. Yuck! Those gloves...

Did somebody from the palace jokingly tell her all commoners have to help out with the dishes after the dinner -- and she believed them?

Man, if they were yellow, they would look like what my mother wears to clean the bathroom!

:puke:

[leesa]

44. Maybe she stole his drapes for that dress. What a bunch of frumps!

[Field Of Dreams]

45. Phillip knows she's Jacques Chirac's woman now!

[dusty64]

46. Yuck,

glad I ate dinner hours ago. Maybe laura had gas and chimpy really ought to keep his eyes to himself. Made me chuckle though, thanks.

[leftofthedial]

47. he's insecure

knowing she is so much more masculine than he is.

[IndianaGreen]

49. Laura smells like fish?

Me bad...

:+

[BiggJawn]

50. Because Herculon itches!

Oh, wait, she's wearing the velvet loveseat in this pic...

[0007]

51. Look!! Look at junior and the frumpish one and the way they hold....

their arms. Exactly the same, with the shoulders raised slightly and arms tightly away from the body.

Talk about tension, 'eh?
