1. Is this for real?
Or are they trying to get out?


I'm sure the whole day was about the most uncomfortable experience of his life. 'Course, he hasn't had too many uncomfortable experiences and with no conscience, as exemplified by his glee over executing Karla Faye Tucker, he doesn't lose much sleep over anything.

15. Maybe Bush is excited...
because he's never seen a library before.

2. That has got to be the funniest thing I've seen in a long time
Name the source. I've gotta know the context. Look at their faces! Clearly * is behind Clinton and trying to squeeze in front. OMFG!

8. Right-clicking on the photo,
Edited on Sun Nov-21-04 03:37 AM by pnorman
and going to "Properties", yielded the URL:


Copy & paste it. It appears to be from the Nov. 19th NYT.

ON edit: I didn't know how to give the URL without causing the photo appear.

4. OMG
This can't be real, can it? He can't be this much of an asshole! Christ, as usual, he acts like a spoiled toddler! Clinton has something that Bush will NEVER have...Class. And a successful presidency.

5. He HAS to go first. Always.
Cuz he's the Pretzeldent. Everybody else has to walk a couple steps behind him to show their respect. What a baby. I hope Bill jabbed him in the stomach with his elbow.

9. ROFLMAO! The NYT described this maneuver, but
I didn't see this picture!

They were exiting the library, following the First Ladies to the stage: "The band then struck up 'Hail to the Chief,' and their husbands emerged, President Bush squeezing past Clinton out the glass doors of the library and Clinton giving him deference with a guiding hand at his back."

Kinda looks like he's pushing through the doors of a Wal-Mart on the first day of Christmas shopping season.

11. Bill's hands are at his side in that pic
there is no deference here. He looks mildly annoyed. Sort of the exasperation he had when he (Clinton) had to tell Bush's daughters to go stand with * at his inauguaration since no Bush was making the gesture. Anyone else remember that?

12. I think the photo captures the moment before Clinton understands
that * is actually going to bolt past, and that it's up to him to be gracious.

19. I think when he hears "Hail to the Chief" he's been conditioned to
puff his chest, swagger, and get to the front of the line.

10. Check out the Serviceman
holding the door. He looks like he can't believe what he's seeing. I'd-a loved to know what he was thinking at that moment.

21. I just watched the video on cspan archives and while the
presidents were still inside, Bush** motioned for Clinton to walk in front of him. I guess he decided to change his mind at the last minutes to try and squeeze before Clinton. The video doesn't look as bad as the pic though. It all happened so fast. Chimpy is always good for laughs.

24. Makes me smile because I know it eats bush* insides.
the Big Dog is loved and respected throughout the WORLD. Bill traveled to India and Africa in 2001, and adoring and cheering crowds lined the roads just to get a glimpse. He was repeatedly showered with flowers wherever he went. He attracts sold out crowds wherever he speaks, and in spite of the of the repeated attempts by the Republican Party to slime him, he is loved as an ex-president. He speaks openly, and walks among open crowds.

OTOH: bush* is the most hated man in the World, and doesn't dare appear in public.

Those facts must gnaw at the chimperor's cowardly intestines. (I was going to use the more colloquial "guts", but bush* doesn't qualify)

bush* will NEVER be able to shoulder aside the Big Dog!
