2. They don't have any reaction because they have their backs
turned AWAY from the shrub. Guess they didn't sign a loyalty oath and weren't allowed to gaze upon the 'boy king' :shrug:

3. hmmmmm, the figure on the left looks like he is facing forward. the neckline
makes it look like his front to me.

4. No matter if he was or wasn't facing forward......
he didn't wave. He couldn't or didn't want to. Same difference.

The shrub, his policies, and EVERYTHING about him spells LOSER/DISASTER (and THAT IS the TRUTH!....face it/admit it!)

29. There is a better video posted on the countdown site
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036677/#25292507

They are both looking at him and one is smoking I suppose.

14. Regardless of whether they're facing Bush in the picture or not,
They had to have known that the President was landing in his helicopter in that area. If those two people were the least bit interested in it, they would have watched the entire procession. If they had their backs to the President coming off the copter shows me that they really don't give a rat's ass about Bush. And if they were facing him and refused to wave back at Bush, even more indifference to the President.

8. He is already forgotten ...
Edited on Sat Jun-21-08 02:09 AM by votesomemore
until he is taken to trial. He may be longing for habeas corpus about that time.
He has probably witlessly signed his own "death" warrant. (metaphorically)

13. John Cusack thought it was pretty funny too, in the interview
Bush is just a sorry ass loser, isn't he? For all we know, it was just two drunk guys who didn't know Bush was going to be there, and thought it might be a parade.

32. BINGO....
That third wave...put me in mind of a kid, desperately wanting the big/cool kids to acknowledge him.

PAY ATTENTION TO MEEEEE!
:nopity:

Bush is going to suffer some serious reality shock once his reign term in office is over.

17. The only thing that could have made that even funnier
would have been if they had turned around and walked away after GWB waved at them.

As in..."Damn, it's only Bush!" :boring:

18. I would have enjoyed it immensely if they had returned his
gesture with tandem raised middle fingers, but I'll settle for no response at all as second best.

20. Fact is, they knew...
...that if they 'flipped the SOB the Bird' they would have, like the guy that hollered 'go F*** yourself' (or whatever it was) to bush or cheney (or whoever that was) back during a 'sightseeing tour' of New Orleans after Katrina, gotten themselves arrested. It would have been marvelous though - and they would have had free legal service and a host of character witnesses if they had been 'made and example of'. Not to mention guest spots on David Letterman, The Daily Show and Countdown.

21. It would have meant big trouble, to be sure,
but it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and would have made for "must see" tv! Still, I can appreciate why they went the "don't respond at all" route instead.

35. he got arrested for saying that to Cheney?
I did not hear that. It would have been AWESOME if they had just turned and walked away after the 2nd "look at MEEEE" wave!

"How come those guys never wave back?!?" *

30. I've often thought * waves like an attention seeking three year old.
Arm outstretched direct towards his target, fingers splayed wide, frantic wave of only the hand, expectant, needy look on his face...

I actually kinda feel sorry for him...

He has no idea exactly "why" he is so disliked. He's that clueless. That part makes me sad.

36. nah...
I felt the same, a bit, like, he's so PAHETIC and dumb that he doesn't realize people cannot stand him, but then I realize, his horrible decisions have put about a million people into the GROUND, let aloneeeeee the ones that were put into the ground from lack of healthcare, food, etc, in the US, that might have lived if Gore or Kerry were there instead...

He IS a sad human being... for sure... you're compassionate and you realize pathetic people and want to help - but I feel he won't listen to any of us, even if we tried.

37. Mass Murdering Mad Bomber Religio-Fanatic Crook
It's like those guys in chains who wave to gawkers as they're passed from a secure location to the courthouse. Grinning perpetrators who don't realize that people see them as abhorrent mutant degenerates. Deceived by Voices.

40. The Sound of Silence.
The mood of indifference.

I watched this during Olbermann's interview of Cusack on my 5' TV screen...they were definitely facing the prez.

44. Bush is pathetic.
I was with a relatively apolitical group of women this morning. And they were all laughing about how he never did a thing right, and not one thing has gone right for this country since he took office.

You would think he and Cheney would have had the good sense to just give up long ago. They need to find another line of work.
