[Cocoa]

2. I was wounded once too

I passed out and knocked my forehead against a table.

[LibDemAlways]

3. All the soldiers seem to agree that

I got something seriously wrong up here. Course they were only kidding.

6. "I, too, know what it's like to be wounded in action ...

... I got a big bump right here when I was running away from military service, and tripped and fell down."

[stray cat]

7. I bumped my head once,

[madokie]

8. Where do I get all these smarts, why right here

[Jade Fox]

9. "Then I put on my thinking cap, just like teacher said..."

The women in that picture both have an expression I recognize. Call it, "tolerating a pompous male idiot".

[Turbineguy]

10. What seems fascinating to me

are the expressions of the faces of the others in the photo.

[babylonsister]

14. Yes, don't they looked thrilled at his mere presence?

:sarcasm:

[Jade Fox]

15. see my post above....n/t

20. They are likely thinking that if they have to stand here at INTERMINABLE

'parade rest' much longer that they will shit themselves from the agony of the boredom of it all. And they are also likely thinking about working late, because this bullshit visit has prevented them from accomplishing their regular daily duties.

The man is an asshole who uses PEOPLE as props. He should be ashamed of himself, but of course, that requires a certain level of self-awareness.

[lyonn]

34. Are they possibly thinking about the seriously wounded

they have been caring for? And this idiot pres. says all this stupid stuff that has nothing to do with those wounded and their mission? That was my thought as I watched his speech. My gawd he was making the weirdest faces. I'd say he is crumbling mentally. We can only hope.

[TahitiNut]

22. What makes you think he's a "doc"??

It seems to me that one "doc" is wearing white, another is wearing cammies, and the one wearing scrubs is a nurse or radiologist.

[DefenseLawyer]

32. Don't worry, George

He's just admiring the shape of your skull

[sandrakae]

16. UUUHHHH what are you guys in here for again? I forget.

[johnnypneumatic]

18. what do you know, it doesn't hurt my beautiful mind

to see wounded boys and ruined lives

[TahitiNut]

19. "The x-rays, as expected, found nothing!"

[ReverendDeuce]

21. For Aqua Teen fans... "This is mah head, that's mah head..."

[DoYouEverWonder]

24. He's showing them his latest war injury

Damn that brush is viscous.

[biscotti]

25. The man in the scrubs

seems to be thinking, Oh I could fix that.

[Walt Starr]

26. I could while away the hours, Conferrin with the flowers

Consultin with the rain
And my head I’d be scratchin
While my thoughts were busy hatchin
If I only had a brain

I’d unravel any riddle
For any individd-el
In trouble or in pain
With the thoughts I’d be thinkin
I could be another lincoln
If I only had a brain

Oh, I could tell you why
The ocean’s near the shore
I could think of things I never thunk before
And then I’d sit and think some more

I would not be just a nothin
My head all full of stuffin
My heart all full of pain
Perhaps I deserve you
And be even worthy erve you
If I only had
If I only had a brain

[MADem]

27. The funny thing is, the headline for this story, in most outlets

is NOT "Bush visits wounded troops." Instead, it is

Bush defends domestic spying program

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington/2006-01-01-bush-spy_x.htm?POE=NEWISVA

Heh, heh--the bastard can't catch a break...and as Martha sez, that's a GOOD thing!

[lyonn]

35. Exactly, wounded troops - n/t

[randr]

28. I'm tellin ya, I deserve a purple heart, hard work, heeheehee

[stray cat]

29. He really did cut himself where he is pointing

it was obvious in his press conference today. So he is definitely talking about his wound.

[countingbluecars]

30. OMG! Could he really be that

ignorant! I think the article was hinting at it too!

"U.S. President George W. Bush points to his head after meeting with wounded U.S. military personnel..."

[Kadie]

39. Here is a pic of his cut

When I posted the picture above earlier I had no idea he had a cut on his head. I just figured he was doing one of he usual gestures. Leave it to * to go visit wounded soldiers and have to make his own little boo boo an issue.

[LibDemAlways]

42. I've never seen an adult get so

many head wounds. He must fall a lot when he's drinking.

[Historic NY]

33. Nothing up here folks.............

Do I get my Purple Heart now Uncle Dick?

[formercia]

36. What does this mean? Germans do this to me all the time.
