their meeting include positions a great deal more intimate than mere "hand-holding..."
I am sure that Shrub will not be able to sit for a week...

5. Just for your cultural awareness |
|
It is quite common in Saudi Arabia for men who are friends to hold hands while walking together. The sexual implications are about the same as two guys shaking hands in this country.
Looks to me like Bush is actually found himself a friend. That this friend is intimately connected with oil is no suprise.

9. If you are speaking to me, I am aware of that fact |
|
And I'll forgive your condescending tone.
Regardless, George Bush looks like an uncomfortable dope in the photo, which is why I hope the gesture will be repeated today.

7. I wonder how Bush's fundie base is going to like seeing |
|
their "messiah" holding hands with an infidel?
That picture is just begging for a caption and some photoshop work.
