BUSH at LUNCH ---pix--->>>
Edited on Wed Feb-21-07 03:12 PM by Stephanie

Look at how bewildered he is at being asked to pass a plate. He's clearly never done it before. Bushes don't share.

3. Ya know, I intensely disliked Nixon. I abhorred Reagan's policies,
I ignored the bland meanness of Bush 41 but by all that is holy and good, I f*cking hate Chucklenuts. Just a picture of this asswipe pisses me off. A photo op of his lunch with the "common folk" is beyond the pale. How about hauling ass over to Walter Reed and cleaning house? You are the damn Commander in Chief - act like it dammit and help those people stuck in your feckless "leadership."

The idea that a country as great as this one could end up with a clueless, dumbass, mean-spirited clown as its leader is breath taking. And that there are actually 30% of our citizens who think he is just fine is more than breath taking - it is soul stealing sadness.

8. Well put.
One look at his confused mug while being passed ribs, when there are ribs already on his plate, almost did him in. Alternate reality. Oh! Camera... His make-up job is failing fast.
Beyond pitiful.

37. Is it just me, or does Bush look like he is ACTING, and not very well?
I take a tiny bit of comfort in thinking about how the fool is always dancing as fast as he can just to try to pass (unsuccessfully) for a real human being. It looks so hard when you see these photos, doesn't it?

9. Couldn't have said it better myself...
I don't think it's any great thing that ONLY 30% of the US population still supports BushCo. That's pathetic!!!

15. My niece bought me
a doll of Bush that sings Yankee Doodle Dandy with emphasis and the words die and lie. I left it at my sisters because it made them laugh (they are republicans), and even though it is in the spirit of making fun of him, I couldn't have a doll with his friggin likeness in my apt. It just looks evil to me and seeing or hearing him makes me angry.

35. Democrat 4 Ever,
I can't think of a way to improve on your statement. "Soul stealing sadness" is apt. I can't make sense of it. These pictures just show what we see and hear in every photo op and presser: the man is a complete fool, and he doesn't even realize it. It shames us all that he squats in our house.

4. Anyone who eats ribs knows immediately this is bullshit.
Eating ribs wearing a tie? Pure bullshit.

7. Perhaps the ribs are plastic, just like the prop turkey he used
in Iraq. There is nothing remotely authentic about these jerks, including a "unscheduled" lunch.

10. The best barbecue comes wrapped in butcher's paper....
no forks, no knives, no "sides", just barbecue. MAYBE a slab of cornbread. This is one of those tourist barbecue places that cater to half-wits like Bush. Photo-op barbecue. They wouldn't know real barbecue if it bit them in the ass.

11. Given what we now know about the mess hog farming is creating...
the last thing we should be eating is pork. But it fits perfectly with BushCo/Neocon thinking...

27. Why no "unscheduled stops" at a taqueria or a Church's Fried Chicken?
All I see is bloated middle aged Caucasian men. Talk about "reaching out". :eyes:
