Can you guess who'd be smiling thru a 9/11 memorial service? (big pic)

[Bucky]

It's not a funny moment, Babs, no matter how beautiful your mind is.



By the way, check out Gore's beard. How old is this picture?

[Rex]

1. I'll take the insane lady in the first row.

Destroy the world, we shall!

[DoYouEverWonder]

2. Looks like mommy and poppy

are so proud of their little murderer.

[Bucky]

3. Ah, it's from 2001, judging by Gore's beard.

I do think it's cute the way Poppy is holding his boy's hand.

Like he's proud of the lad for having finally finished "My Pet Goat" on the plane ride home.

[peekaloo]

15. That's the Skull & Bones secret handshake

for a job well done.

OR palming him some blow.

[Ken Burch]

4. I think she's trying to send Dubya brain waves...

problem is, you NEED a brain to receive them.

[O.M.B.inOhio]

5. Gore looks like he's ready to weep.

[RC]

6. I believe this is from a 9/11 Memorial service or funeral

[liberal N proud]

7. They are just so proud of their creation

Dr. Frankenstein couldn't have done so well creating a monster.

[annabanana]

8. Babs is thinkin' "TRIFECTA!".. .. .. .. .. ..n/t

[immoderate]

9. That's a smile?

Maybe for Babs it is.:shrug:

10. Heckova job, junior

They don't suspect us.

[goddess40]

11. the evil witch is looking at her devil spawn

I can't stand to look at her either

[baldguy]

12. Not just Barb, ALL the bushes are happy.

Look at everyone else around them. They all have the appropriate somber expression. The Bushes seem pleased. Poppy even reaches out to W with a congratulatory handshake.

"Son, we did it."

[glitch]

21. That's the way it looks to me too. nt

14. Barbara's so proud...

of her POS son and husband.

[oblivious]

16. Why did GHB marry his mother?

I read that somewhere on DU years ago and everytime I look at them together it's the first thing that pops into my mind.

[Libby2]

17. Notice the only "child" in the group?

Yep, Chelsea Clinton.

[Just-plain-Kathy]

33. That's right...Where are the Bush twins?

They're not serving in Iraq are they? :eyes:

[ms liberty]

18. This is from the memorial at the National Cathedral

which was a week or so after 9/11. I remember seeing this pic. Look at how somber the Gores and the Clintons are - Bill looks like he's been crying. (he's got so much empathy - he'd probably been crying all night, bless his heart!) When you contrast that with how the *Bush* family looks, it's like night and day. Blech. Those people are disgusting.

[Lisa]

37. I remember that -- it gave me an awful, frightening feeling ....

There was something terribly symbolic about how they herded all the dignitaries into the cathedral, and surrounded them with military people carrying flags and standards ... and then they were all singing "The Battle Hymn of the Republic", many verses which I didn't even know existed, and it seemed to go on forever. The Carters, Clintons, and Gores looked so sad ... and almost helpless, because Bush had them all there while he was up at the pulpit, and they had to listen to him and obey him.

I couldn't even articulate what was bothering me, at the time. I kept telling myself that "this is a memorial service and these things are all normal", but the thought that something awful was going to happen kept nagging at me. Later I saw the televised memorial service from Parliament Hill in Ottawa. It took place in the open air, and tens of thousands of people attended. The atmosphere was so different -- not as formal or controlled, but just as powerful, and without the heavy hand of Bush.

19. Look at Laura's right hand

This family is just plain strange! Here's poppy reaching across Laura to clasp Junior's hand with a serene (!) smile on his face. Junior looks like a kid who knows he'd better not crack a grin. Laura, whose personal space is being so grossly invaded, is holding her right hand like she wants to karate chop someone.

Sick...Just...sick

[WinkyDink]

29. Poppy's right arm is a wee intrusive of Laura's chest space, no?

I didn't even realize she was THERE until your post! And I've seen that photo before!

[lonestarnot]

20. Yeah there's the 9/11 Group. Jihadists.

[sinkingfeeling]

22. Are they congratulating Chimpy for a job 'well done'?

[ComerPerro]

32. looks like it. Bush and Bush are shaking hands

and Barbara is smiling.

[PATRICK]

23. My first thought at that time

So proud of Sonny, but there the proud father sits, the one whose deliberate mess created this whole fiasco, this preventable loss of life with the boob who did and does nothing to stop more and more slaughter. Honor among thieves. Pride among incompetents.

[paparush]

24. Poppy - Boy, ya just got handed the keys to the Carlyle Group Kingdom

[Kurovski]

25. As much as I despise that criminal family,

it looks as though she's smiling gently at a moment between father and son.

[lonestarnot]

28. It's the look of an ooze out.

[WinkyDink]

30. It looks like she's ignorant of the solemnity of the moment. And why

she'd be moved by this scene between two senior citizens, as though one was only a seven-year-old child, is beyond me anyway.

[Bucky]

39. why are you interrupting my cheap shots with fair & thoughtful comments?

[Kurovski]

40. It's so rare to see Babs looking human!

So you wanna cheap shot, do ya? George looks in that photo as though he may have a few "special needs".

How's that? :-)

[Scriptor Ignotus]

26. make fun if you want, but i loved her in "Mars Attacks"

[Beelzebud]

27. Mission Accomplished. Thats what I see in those evil eyes.

[ComerPerro]

31. reaches out? Fuck! They are shaking hands!

Probably proud of what they have done, which was set the PNAC into full swing. Barbara is smiling because she knows that the recent events are going to make her even richer

[ScreamingMeemie]

34. That's actually really, really creepy looking.

As if at any second she's going to open her mouth (a la a Stephen King novel) and show her fangs...

And what's that Poppy's saying?? "Yep, that's right son...you f*cked up... big time..." :puke:

[PinkyisBlue]

35. Barbara Bush--America's Grandma.

Yikes! That photo isn't of Barbara, it's her evil twin! Look at the glint in her eyes.

I love Bush Sr.'s flag in his lapel. He's coaching Jr. on how to look patriotic to later ram through the Patriot Act.

[CoffeeCat]

36. Everyone around the Bush family...

...looks stricken and in shock.

The Bush's look smug and relaxed, and Junior looks like he's bored.

The Bush's look at peace--as if they know something that the rest of the crowd doesn't.

[Xenotime]

38. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

They are obviously not as mournful as the others around them.

[TheWatcher]

41. Here's a Caption for that piece of Shit Babs

"Well boys, we pulled it off."

Of course you could use that caption for all three of them.
