Another picture in which W* looks clueless. . .

1. You would think the President could afford a wind-proof umbrella
These are indeed tough times.

6. more like Sherry Bobbins from The Simpsons
http://www.area51newmexico.com/simpsons/simpsons_shery.html



Cut Every Corner

Shery: If there's a task that must be done,
Don't turn your tail and run,
Don't pout, don't sob,
Just do a half-assed job!

If... you... cut every corner
It is really not so bad,
Everybody does it,
Even mom and dad.
If nobody sees it,
Then nobody gets mad,

Bart: It's the American way!

Shery: The policeman on the beat
Needs some time to rest his feet.

Chief Wiggum: Fighting crime is not my cup of tea!

Shary: And the clerk who runs the store
Can charge a little more
For meat!

Apu: For meat!

Shery: And milk!

Apu: And milk!

Both: From 1984!

Shery: If... you... cut every corner,
You'll have more time for play,

It's the American waaaaay!

5. Chim chiminey, chim chiminey, chim chim cher-oo
Bad luck will rub off when
I shake hands with you
Or I blow up your country
And that's unlucky too

7. Idiot wind, blowing ev'ry time you move your mouth,
Blowing down the backroads headin' south.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe.
