Spin Dry

I have no idea what the hell is going on in this picture, but it makes a few things obvious...

• What's up with those tight, white pants? "Don't ask, don't tell" my ass.
• Bush really is a short little runt, isn't he? If they both straighten up, looks like pants boy has got a good six inches on the preznit.
• One look at that pose, and you know why W gets off so much on stroking Saddam's gun.

Incidentally... they showed footage on the news of W speaking at the Annapolis commencement ceremony yesterday, and a couple of things stood out. First off, shots of Bush speaking had none of his audio as the news anchor did the blah blah blah, but the sound mixed under it was a huge cheer from the crowd. Intercut this with shots of the audience greeting the president, and it's quite obvious from the visual that the applause was polite, not enthusiastic. Then, as a capper, they cut to the "graduation is over, toss your hats in the air" moment -- and the cheer from the crowd with this scene was identical to the sound playing under the shots of Bush.

A wee bit of manipulation to make it look like everyone was wetting themselves over W, but the actual shots of the crowd told a quite different story. I'm sure more than a few of those grads were thinking, "I could have had a nice career in a peacetime military, but you had to fuck it up and we could all get killed, you pretzel-gagging asshat."

Okay, maybe I'm putting words into their heads -- but you think the guy in the white pants there is thinking, "Yeah, me and my buddies would love to Abu Grab your sorry Ivy League ass, coke boy," and that's why he's smiling?

Just a thought...
