1. Bridge to nowhere Teddy himself...

he certainly is a dapper son of a bitch :rofl:

[XemaSab]

2. Senator from Alaska, no?

:shrug:

Good GOD... that suit's probably as old as I am.

Like, tell me they have a Macy's up there, k?

[Blue_In_AK]

36. No Macy's

but we do have a Norstrom's. I've never seen a suit like that up here.

[Captain Angry]

3. Be nice.

It shows how green the Bush White House is. They recycled a couch into that suit for him.

Wow.

[billyoc]

4. Ex-Senator chic.

[LeftyMom]

5. Ted "series of tubes" Stevens.

:rofl:

[ColbertWatcher]

19. What is his suit a series of!? n/t

[ben_meyers]

6. Hey!! I still have that suit in my wardrobe,

it's hanging right next to my Nehru jacket.

[Ikonoklast]

7. Dead man walking. Politically.

Ready for his career to be mercifully laid to rest.

If the Feds don't get to him first, that is.

[amitten]

8. Good lo'. n/t

[SmileyRose]

9. Just imagine what he wears golfing...........

:)

[krispos42]

10. Gah!

I sucked in air through my teeth at that one!

Even I, who has virtually no fashion sense whatsoever, can feel the burn from that one!

I once dressed that way in middle school. Of course, it was for a class and I was SUPPOSE to look tacky!

You'd figure that with all the graft, bribes, payouts, kickbacks, and god knows what other kinds of corruption he's involved in, he could afford something less likely to incite the Fab Five to riot.

[ColbertWatcher]

20. You can't buy tact. n/t

[krispos42]

27. And bad taste is virtually free

<sigh>

The world is backwards...

[Lasher]

11. I've seen that look somewhere before

[libnnc]

13. HAHA!!

Ding! Ding!

Excellent use of Porter Wagoner Show Reference!!!



ON the money!

:applause:

[Lasher]

15. Yep, Speck Rhodes. n/t

[stevedeshazer]

35. Speck Rhodes!!

:rofl:

[DCKit]

12. Wish I could see his feet...

'cause I'm sure he's either wearing sandals with black socks, or shoes with big, square buckles on them.

Hey Toobes, yo' mamma dresses you funny.

I don't know, think he's saving all his $$$ for lawyerin' up?

[libnnc]

14. d00d it's summer

he's wearing white bucks

[Lasher]

16. Or maybe a pair of these:

No kidding, this is the latest fashion.

[ColbertWatcher]

21. Those look like cowboy boots without the calf part. n/t

[ingac70]

17. With all the bribes Ted takes...

you'd think he'd bother to buy a new suit.

[madrchsod]

18. my local charity shop does`t have suits that old.....

[lame54]

22. He has a tee time after this - no time to change

[paparush]

23. Bush - Empty Desk, Empty Mind

[Virginia Dare]

24. Looks like a snake oil salesman..

oh wait, he is.

[lunatica]

25. I wish my desk was that bare and clean

There must not be that much to do when your the commander guy. They're not even trying to make it look like he works anymore. He doesn't even have his reading glasses on so he can see where to sign. Remember those photo ops where he's shown looking as if he's reading something?

[ThatsMyBarack]

26. Wink Martindale!

He wore that stuff all the time on Tic Tac Dough.

At one point, the GSN network called it, "Winkerwear: Available at fine garage sales everywhere!" :rofl:

[Bright Eyes]

28. He looks like a used car salesman.

[Contrary1]

29. To be honest...

I think the lavender tie brings it all together, making this outfit work.

[Hippo_Tron]

37. While true, I would not pose for photographs in that outfit

That suit may look alright in certain lighting but with the wrong light it looks like you smeared a blackboard eraser all over yourself.

[Contrary1]

40. Nah...I was joking.

There is no tie on earth that would go with that suit!

[Hippo_Tron]

41. He looks like he should be sitting on a porch with some other old white guys

[truebrit71]

30. All that's missing there is the white face paint and the red nose!!!

:rofl:

[DS1]

34. GMTA, see #33

[tomg]

31. God that picture is depressing.

It looks as though the country is being run by a county-wide insurance ageny that specializes in commercial insurance. And Ted Stevens is the guy they all wish would retire.

[lpbk2713]

32. Why he's an 'Emerging Technologist'

Bwah - ha - ha - ha

:rofl:


I'll bet he even knows about YouTube.

[DS1]

33. or, as Ted sees it

:)

[SalmonChantedEvening]

38. Holy Gimbels 1957 Catalog, Batman.

Ted Stevens you throwback.
