So much wrong here. First, there’s the “Wreath Laying,” which is apparently the White House term for “second base with the hot blonde.”

Then, there’s a stone-faced Bill Frist using several of his extendable robot surgical arms to get the best photographic angle of the presidential pawing.

And then there’s the extremely uncomfortable-looking first lady … who mistakenly wore her Thanksgiving Day pilgrim outfit.

1. Wow, Pickles is not happy.

[LoZoccolo]

6. Frist looks a little unsettled as well. n/t

[TomInTib]

9. He is such a rube.. hey! asswipe!, ever hear of an 'air kiss'?

He always plants a wet on on whomever he is 'kissing'.

Good way to piss off a chick is to screw up her makeup in public.

[Bucky]

28. Another good way to piss off a chick is to...

...send her husband or boyfriend off to fight in some vanity war to control Middle Eastern oil reserves.

17. He's lookin' for love

lessee, hands on Merkel, smoochy with blondes at every opportunity... come on! The guy's getting shut down on the home front and he's warming up his game for after Laura gives him the boot... and he's eager to get off the bench.

[Bonobo]

22. Just so you know...it was the Pilgrim comment that made me do a spit-take

[Sparkle]

24. The guy behind Frist wishes he was in Bush's place.

Isn't that the macca guy?

[Cleita]

25. What you can't see behind shrub was a little girl, maybe

eleven or twelve whom he hugged and smooched before he got to that lady (maybe her mother?). I really felt sorry for the kid. Don't know where the older blond's head is.

[vickitulsa]

52. Oh no! Now that's just downright disturbing....

:puke: :mad: :grr: :thumbsdown: :banghead: :spank:

:EXASPERATION!:

[SammyWinstonJack]

26. He doesn't kiss Pickles like that in public and thanks the Gods for that!

:puke: Frist looks bewildered by Pinhead's very PDA. :rofl: The whole scene is bizarre. I see a "blue dress" in Pinhead's future. :evilgrin:

[bklyncowgirl]

29. Is that Senator Macacca behind Frist?

The guy with the amiable but goofy look in his face.

You do have to love the puss on Frist and Laura with the painted smile--do they just pull her lips back in the morning with clips?

[No Exit]

46. Yes, that appears to be Senator Shithead

And now we know why Laura looked unsettled for the rest of the day.

[LibDemAlways]

55. Yes, definitely Senator Macaca, looking on

approvingly and relieved that chimp isn't planting one on Condi.

[EFerrari]

30. Laura: "Take my @sshole, please!"

What an incredibly disturbing shot. Look at his body language. He looks like he's about to deck that woman.

YUCK.

[tnlefty]

31. Don't know, but why in the hell is she wearing Annthrax Coulter's dress?

Do they just recycle the same black dress? :shrug:

[Synnical]

33. LOL

Really, I laughed out loud. But, the Pearl necklace?

[tnlefty]

38. Perhaps borrowed from Babs? Or to remind him of his jackal mother?

OK, that was mean, but I'm glad you had a laugh earlier, laughter seems harder to come by these days and I'm glad that I made you chuckle just a little bit!

they ran a speech of hers on 9/11 on cspan at a school..
at least it looks like the same woman..

[Synnical]

41. Finally A Clue!

Thanks, can you track that down?

[vickitulsa]

54. Think I'll try to do that.

I was guessing it was a 9/11 widow who approved of the Chimp's "heroic leadership" post-attacks. I knew some of them (who knows how many?) do -- or did. Wonder if that opinion will change someday when more of the truth becomes common knowledge?....

I can't think of anything more devastating than for someone who genuinely believed in the Simian One's goodness or honesty -- let alone heroism or great leadership -- holding onto that delusion as long as possible but then finally being compelled by reality to face the very hard facts of the matter of her husband's tragic death.

[flyarm]

65. i think it is Deena Burnett of San Ramon, Calif. widow of Flt 93 victim

ijust searched for her picutre and i am pretty sure this is who it is..

widow of Tom Burnett UAL flt 93 victim..

The Burnetts
By Gregg Zoroya, USA TODAY
LITTLE ROCK — Deena Burnett calls the last words from her husband, Tom, "this little gift." On an apocalyptic day when thousands of stricken Americans heard nothing from lost loved ones — simply saw them vanish into the nether of a collapsed building or downed aircraft — Burnett actually took full measure of her husband in his final moments.

35. Uh, how long is her right forearm?....

36. At least she's giving him a reach-around...

which is more than Chimp gives America

42. I can not decide whether to laugh hysterically, or

race home tearfully, leap into bed, assume the pre-natal position, turn on the electric blanket
and cry myself to sleep.

cut him off too?

39. Isn't that blonde

the sister of one of the pilots -of the flight that went down in PA., I think- who has been canonizing der bushler and demonizing Democrats since 2001?

[vickitulsa]

43. Hard to look at, this photo is...

just disgusting and repulsive on so many levels.

My first thought related to my abusive, molesting father. He was a state trooper for 23 years and was more cruel and horrid to his own family than anyone in town had any idea. In fact, they had NO idea what went on in our house.

I was his main "target" for behavior he seemed to think was appropriate -- even in public at times. Worst of all, though, in a sense, was that after I was long since grown up and tried hard to avoid him while still wanting to visit my mom whenever I could, he always INSISTED on kissing me on the mouth in "greeting" every time I arrived at their place or they at mine. It was just one of the many ways he had of trying to "sneak in" offensive, unwanted, and disgusting behavior without being obvious about it (or so he thought).

Toward the end of his life (he died at 81 in 1998), I just couldn't bear being around him any more, ever again, and I left the state, letting Mom know where I was in general but not specifically. I could never even contact her, by phone or letter, without his reading her mail and listening in on every single phone call. So I just stopped making contact.

I didn't even learn he had died until about three months afterward, I'd been so out of touch for about five months total. No one expected him to die suddenly as he did, or maybe we did, but either way it worked out well that way ... no telling what sort of quandary I would have been in had I been around and obliged to attend the memorial service he never wanted but his granddaughters did.

Everyone stood up to "say nice things" about him, but if I'd been asked, I could never have said nice things about him in such a setting (although of course there were some nice things about him, there are about everyone, almost). I just would have been hard-pressed not to make a shocking announcement to the entire extended family about my father's true nature and behavior.

But here's the thing about the KISSING...

What I learned to do when I reached my mid-30's was, whenever I'd first arrive on a visit "home," I'd have my plan ready; and when Dad would try to hug and then kiss me right on the f'ing mouth, I'd TURN MY HEAD really fast just at the last moment so that his ugly wet smack would land on my cheek instead of my mouth!

Now you can see why that photo of the repulsive Chimp smooching the blond reminded me of my male parent's unwanted kisses....

It may be just me, of course, and due to my history with my dad, but I can just imagine that blond getting wise at the last moment and avoiding a direct mouth smack from the Grossest One by turning her head.

I've wondered if other daughters or stepdaughters have had to deal with this sort of thing on any scale, but usually don't ask my friends about it unless we're really close. My dad used his position of authority as my parent and a cop, to boot, to instill fear in his family and get away with whatever he wanted to do to us all.

It's all too easy for me to imagine how difficult it might be for anyone unfortunate enough to be put together with Chimpy, especially for a photo op, to evade unwanted attentions, considering HIS power status. Very unfair, and shrinks have words for it when a person uses their unfair power advantage this way.

I have my own words for it, too, but they aren't published in any psych textbooks or the DMV-IV....

It's also easy for me to imagine that "dingbat" Laura (who made her bed and lies in it I guess) finds every day and year living with that horror of a husband to be harder than the last. My mom would never dream of leaving my dad because she had no idea how she would survive "out there" without him. Thought she had no job skills, could not provide for us kids, and all that.

I told her that Dad would have HAD to pay child support, and she said that once when she threatened to divorce him (an unusual, courageous moment for her), he told her she'd never see one penny of alimony or child support from him. She replied that the court would order him to pay child support, and he retorted that he would leave the state -- or the country! -- first before he'd let a court force him to pay child support! A real heroic man, ain't he? But he absolutely meant it and would have done that.

Mom never had much confidence in herself, so after that one brave try at it when I was 11, during which she never got as far as getting into the car and driving away, she gave up and just lived with her "fate." Unfortunately, my brother and I had to live with that decision, too; but I can assure you Mom never had a clue what Dad was doing to me until I finally told her when I was past 40.

People simply do not comprehend, unless they've lived with it or know someone who has, how the POWER of a molesting adult over children or simply other weaker adults in his (or the rare her) life is how they get away with what they do. There are tons of photos of our family all smiling at the camera looking like "nothing is wrong here," but although a few others in the extended family have only learned in recent years what really went on, I knew it all along and just had to live with it.

Of course, I used to think similar thoughts about the sort of shit Hillary had to put up with as well......

Can't say I ever admired Clinton for his womanizing, but I trust he didn't molest Chelsea! Just couldn't have and probably wouldn't have, whether he could get away with it or not, is how I read him. But then what do we REALLY KNOW about what goes on behind closed doors? I'm a classic example.

Guess I shouldn't have said that last part, but hey, I really DON'T believe the "Big Dog" was or is anywhere near as bad as many out there when it comes to "inappropriate behavior." I thought from the git-go that the Monica-Paula Jones business was "blown" up to ridiculous proportions by a vengeful and otherwise helpless, jealous Repug majority in the House to push for impeachment. They angered the nation with their relentless attacks and push to impeach, went ahead with it when no one wanted it, and generally embarrassed themselves even more than WJC in the end, IMO.

And I think folks here at DU are perfectly justified in comparing Bill's "crimes" to the Chimp's and seeing the obvious absurdity in the juxtaposition! One day, some day, and I hope some day soon, the entire country will have to think about all that, and who knows what people will make of photos like this one someday down the line?

[Hekate]

61. Bush's body language has always screamed "abuser" to me

I have a history too, and though not as bad as yours in some ways there's a lot of overlap in our experiences. I also kept trying to be my mother's good daughter, and when I finally said I wasn't coming back there she just about had a breakdown. On some level she's never forgiven me for "abandoning" her, even though she knew by then he'd even gotten to my daughter. I have a hard time forgiving myself for my kid, and I am glad he's dead now.

With Bush there's no way we have of knowing whether he is a sexual abuser, but he is a lifelong and well-known sadistic bully. His body language has always creeped me out and made me feel threatened, and I don't think it speaks very highly of the many people who think he is charismatic and genuine.

Just wanted to say I know what you mean.

Hekate

[Synnical]

67. Thank you for sharing your story

I know that must have been incredibly difficult. I was in an abusive relationship years ago. Won't happen again, and I won't watch it happen to anyone else.

For what it's worth, a friend I showed the photo to, also commented that she thought the blonde looked uncomfortable.

[KingFlorez]

44. Sort of looks like that picture of Clinton kissing Monica

[Qanisqineq]

45. that was my first thought

looks just like it

[B Calm]

63. another rope line picture, but this time with two new people!!

hopefully this will be the beginning to the end

[bleever]

48. Why the macacca does this look like either Renoir or Bosch?

It's a chimpy felix pickles 9/11 salad with a spritz of widow.

How am I supposed to deal with this when it's only Tuesday??

[vickitulsa]

51. It's not just you! ...

But Renoir? Surely ye jest! Bosch, maybe more like it, hah!

Strange when you don't even need to show melting, runny clocks (or people) to get a really bizarre cast to the whole thing, composition and all, eh? :D

I've always liked photos of people taking photos of other people, though ... you almost always get something sort of interesting. I loved the above post about Frist's (could someone not spell "first" or what?) "surgical arm extensions" -- good one!

When a simple snapshot really looks a lot like it could have been photoshopped but it actually wasn't, there's gotta be somethin' wrong with the subjects in the pic, right? Or the situation or activities recorded -- for posterity?, or maybe better said, for posteriors?!

That said, surely almost every President since photography was invented has at least one or two pics where he looks like a doofus or a creep or an idiot. Or a wicked or insane human being. But heaven knows we have waaay more than plenty -- and more than one would ever expect in "normal" life for ANYONE -- when it comes to THIS pResident....

How would you like to be a person tasked with the job of photo-documenting this first family's lives? Argghh! :argh: :puke: :hurts: Still photos are easier -- ya can just drop the bulk of them into the round file and hope no one gets ahold of 'em to "expose the truth." But if it's live-action video we're talkin' about, surely 99 percent of the film must end up "on the cutting room floor"!

That is, if one's goal is to present a halfway normal-looking collection....

I'm trying to imagine what the visual record of Poppy's pResidency might look like, say at his (yet another useless or just vainglorious and self-promoting) Presidential Library, compared with his dimson's. I recall Poppy saying that he was "so proud" of Dumbya and his pResidential achievements or somesuch thing years ago. Wonder if in the end he'll still feel that way?

After all, we ultimately have "the tale of the tape" to reveal a big heap of the truth about those people. Already it's enormously telling, but I'm hoping that the BEST shots (the ones we all want to see) are yet to come.

I've also wondered if someday a candid snapshot will be leaked out that exposes the wind-up key stuck in the back of "longsuffering Laura"........

[bleever]

49. And is there something weird about the composition of that shot

that suggests photoshopping?

If it's just me, tell me; I can take it. But I'm curious enough to ask if anyone else finds it strange.


Edit: And, Washington Times? Owned by the Rev. Moon?

[Kurovski]

58. The woman who promotes Bush Admin. illegal wire-tapping?

"With all due respect to Ms. Burlingame, she is using 9/11 to sell illegal actions by George W. Bush, Alberto Gonzales and the NSA, comparing two different realities. This is exactly what the Republicans need to do to keep the public distracted. It's what every radio host across this country will be saying all day, aided by the Christian broadcasting outreach and every other group allied with the president."
