The latest "* is working while on vacation" pic
Looks like he has a new shirt.

1. Who shot the couch?
Is he in Margaritaville or something? What a hideous shirt.

36. no. mostly to show off his POWER AND CONTROL which he really doesn't
have since none of us respect him nor hold him in any regard or high esteem.

38. He needs a big oval over his head so people
won't forget he's Working!

In the White House!

No Really!

The Western One!

He's at his kitchen table, and there are no Reporters!

Seriously, someone had to submit an order to have that sign done; "Western White House"? The UNMITIGATED gall. That's his private residence, and he has a perfectly good White House back home. He needs to be told, George, you're working or you're not. An oval sign does not a white house make.

16. It does. It's part on the wall and part over the door frame.
Looks like they tried to fit it into the pic and make it so you can still read the words.

33. He probably takes that sign with him everywhere.
Probably hangs it up in the bathroom when he goes to the can, just so he can look at it and think about how rad it is to be president.

26. Look Ma, no wrinkles.
His normal look for the "Western White House" is the same wrinkled shirt 3 or 4 days in a row. :puke: At least this one looks clean.

31. Kinda like this picture when he was inducted into the National Guard ....
Edited on Sat Aug-12-06 06:20 PM by Botany
.... Hall of Fame?



We really have crossed the line and are now into the world of the surreal. Our President
vacations in a goofy shirt, at a phony ranch that was built in 1999 to show his
country roots, as the Mid East is in flames and Iraq crashes into civil war. Meanwhile his
loving wife has all but left him (but shows back up for photo ops) and he brought along
3 books to read about Abe Lincoln and world history.

And yet the Vice President and the Presidential press secretary try to sell
us that al Qaeda was following the CT democratic primary?

34. This photo is completely staged.
I'm not saying it was photo shopped. Bush's PR people just wanted people to think Bush is actually doing something, so they dressed him in a clown-type shirt, sat him down in front of a desk, and put a phone in his hand.

He's not really doing anything. He's just watching TV, rooting around in the refrig to see if there is anything in there that's good to eat. He doesn't want to go outside because it's too much work.

Just......hanging around.......
