Photo: Bush, looking less-than-relaxed at Summit of The Americas


"President Bush, center, joins other leaders at the Summit of the Americas, as they wait for the start of opening ceremonies in Mar del Plata, Argentina, in this Nov. 4, 2005 file photo. President Bush's slumping popularity at home may be taking a toll on his ability to exert influence overseas. As Bush prepares to depart Monday Nov. 14, 2005 on a trip to Asia, questions abound about the global consequences of a U.S. president hobbled by domestic setbacks. On the bottom row from left to right are: Bolivia's President Eduardo Rodriguez, U.S. and President George W. Bush and Costa Rica's President Abel Pacheco. Top row, from left to right, are: Dominican Republic's President Leonel Fernandez, Trinidad and Tobago Prime Minister Patrick Manning, and Uruguay's President Tabare Vazquez. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite/File) (J. Scott Applewhite - AP)"

1. Whatever he's doing ...
... it sure has gotten an unpleasant, even shocked reaction from those seated above him and to his left.

Cleaning the coke residue off his upper lip, perhaps?

2. It looks like everyone but the guy on the left is really mad at him
as well. The one on his right looks like he just found out something real bad about george.

7. Yeah. At first glance I thought they all looked "less-than-relaxed" but...
then I realized that they were all looking at him, except the one who is leaning away from him trying to look non-chalant.

5. Of course he's not relaxed.
Condi's not right there holding his hand.

And I'd wager that he resents being treated like all of the other leaders.
