3. I can't believe how * is morphing into Nixon.
Look at his stance:



Look at how the little chimp has aged. He looks as faded as that rug under his feet.

8. I thought the last picture looked like
he was saying, "This is where I stand when I want to talk directly to Jesus."

6. Bet he was telling them about the rug.
Nothing says power like the Oval Office. The paintings of George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. The bust of Dwight D. Eisenhower. The desk used by both Roosevelts.

And then there's the rug. Don't forget the rug. President Bush never does.

For whatever reason, Bush seems fixated on his rug. Virtually all visitors to the Oval Office find him regaling them about how it was chosen and what it represents. Turns out, he always says, the first decision any president makes is what carpet he wants in his office. As a take-charge leader, he then explains, he of course made a command decision -- he delegated the decision to Laura Bush, who chose a yellow sunbeam design.

Not only does the president describe the rug to journalists and foreign leaders, he does so to virtual visitors. During "An Oval Office Tour With President George W. Bush" on the White House site ( http://www.whitehouse.gov ), he wastes no time pointing out the carpet. "It helps make this room an open and optimistic place," Bush tells viewers.

7. Photo 3: "This is where I usually piss and occasionally take a shit--the great thing about bein'
president is that I can make the secret service pick up after me."

9. So little has changed.
Bush giving tour of WH for presstitutes, whereas 19 years ago his dad was doing the same thing for underage male prostitues. Bet GHWB looked a bit more chirpy, though.
