Poll question: Which of Bush's Photo-Op Shirts Do You Like the Best?
Edited on Tue Oct-11-05 03:18 PM by Enraged_Ape
Like the Lone Ranger or the Skipper or Gilligan, it is clear that whenever Bush appears in public, he only has one of two shirts to wear, a blue-and-white checked shirt and a blue shirt. These are clearly his "photo-op" shirts which show that he's some sort of "regular guy"

I'd like to do Karl Rove's work for him and find out which shirt you actually prefer of the two, and how you like to see them. That way Karl can just hand Dubya one before he gets off the plane and save us all a lot of dumb wardrobe trouble.

So which do you like the best? (I would include photos, but we've ALL seen them about a half a million times. Check Yahoo! News Photos if you really need a refresher.)

2. He needs a cape
He could put a big W on the back. The inside of the cape could have a pocket in it where he could stash some Jim Beam or other beverage.

7. A cape would help hide his radio receiver too.
Add a hood & his earpiece will never be seen. And of course, the Jim Beam!!

His hero name could be Super Duper W & we can simply call him Capt. Dupe for short.

10. You are one clever chick!
Now that Rove is going to be wearing an orange jumpsuit and unable to guide his royal fuck-up, maybe you can start advising ****.

Can't let that one go. Truly one of the greatest moments in American Presidential history.

13. His photo-op wardrobe.......
has been severely curtailed by the Hurricanes. There just isn't a good costume our pretzelnit can wear to a disaster area like this. Now if it were wildfires, there's the ever popular Fireman's outfit, this will also double as an acceptable get-up for major building demolitions. Aircraft Carrier photo-ops are a no brainer. A nice tailored flight suit with a sock stuffed in the crotch for "women appeal" is ALWAYS in fashion. However the White House costume department really dropped the ball on this one. I would have suggested a pair of hip waders, the kind that almost look like cowboy chaps, again, highlighting the presidential "package." Some heads are going to roll at the costume and wardrobe department in the White House. They totally let the president down on this one and his poll numbers show it.
I think he should consult the "Fab Five" from "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy", but then again no self respecting Gay Man would be caught dead working for Republicans. I know, you're thinking "Jeff Gannon/Guckert! I SAID "self respecting," didn't I? :shrug:

14. I like the cowboy outfit with the blue sequins and rhinestone boots
Wait -- I'm thinking of one of the Village People again.

Maybe THAT is where Bush is getting his costumes from...:shrug:

21. I really think those are his favorite lucky shirts
Even though he peels them right off as soon as the cameras aren't pointed at him, imagine how those things must smell. I can guarantee he doesn't wash them.
