All I can say about that Photo is that the very site of him and that smurk makes me nauseaus. Thinking about the lives and Billions wasted on this mis-directed war. People are so mis-led, and so mis-informed it is pathetic (and I mean millions of Americans).

sorry, i don't get it? what's the context? is it funny? every empire does stupid invasions: the romans invaded scotland and didn't come back; athens tried to take syracuse and lost it all. nothing special about us

You can put all the gold frames around his picture, he still looks the cowboy who sent our boys and girls into a ill-begotten war for no reason at all.

I agree with the first posting. The sight of "W" makes me sick. As my 86 year old mother said" His father is a weasel and He is a son of a weasel. At night,weasels sneak into a hen house and suck the blood out of the hens as they sit on their perches...they look alive, but they are really dead." He tried to do this to us, but with some hope in 2008 we might get to restore lost rights, health to the earth and citizens, rebuild this country, and STOP THIS WAR!!!

This photograph is the most definitive example of a despicable little piece of lifeform. This thing is the first and only president that I have ever wanted to meet, and he would not like me very much.

I think it would have been more instantly effective with the phrase --

"Bush: He puts the 'Ws' in 'war widow.'

They spelled wrong. Should read: "A New Kind of Whore."

I have it on good authority from a guy who was born again the day before yesterday, that no lights were used to take that photo. It was the Holy Spirit radiating right out through Jesus... Oh! Excuse me! Easy mistake ...George's face. George had been having a solemn and prayerfull day thinking about how it had been months since his last last great war idea, the surge. When suddenly the Holy Ghost Guy poped another great idea right into his head! "Thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them." What we need is a SMITE BOMB he thought, as his face lit up.
