9. Caption: A Merkel and a Merkin......
and I DON'T mean a 'Murkin-which is Bushspeak meaning "an American"....Rather I refer to the REAL "merkin" a false set on pubic hair used by prostitutes in the middle ages to hide pubic baldness which was necessary to inconvenience lice,yet hide scars of syphilis....In short-a world leader and the beard used to hide disease and pestilence...

10. Look at the rictus grin on Merkel's face.
She's obviously thinking, "what a scheisskopf."

17. I suspect this is a bucket of red herrings
definition of "red herring".....any diversion intended to distract attention from the main issue. Bingo! Chimpy is a pro at diversion. Our sons and daughters are dying in Iraq, the Mid-east is up in flames and our fearless leader is either cutting up with the German Chancellor or gloating over the Prime Minister of Japan's Elvis impersonation.

18. Oh, that's only the half of it!!! If you missed "the Pig" news conference.
Try to catch the 1:00am EDT replay of The Daily Show, he's REALLY disgraces us there too, and Jon shows us how like only he can.

Don't miss the part of the show before the commercial, he talks about the Novak/Rove/Cheney connection. AWESOME Stuff! :evilgrin:
