3. What the hell did they put in their kool-aide this morning?

Edited on Wed Nov-30-05 09:57 AM by DoYouEverWonder

I think they went a little too far and really knocked them out. Boy, are they going to feel hung over when they wake up and then to see Shrub's ugly face yaking at you when you do. I just hope they supplied barf bags in the seat pockets.

4. Looks like they had to drug

them into being a docile audience. Oh well, they're just background scenery for Preznits Dipshit anyway.

37. The answers are placed on a Phony Backdrop that

looks like a Big Blue Doll House.

I could not believe it when I saw that silly thing.

The backdrop should have been of the soldiers falling asleep ---- I smell a Photo Shop Op!

Come on somebody.

40. If it smells like a Photo Op,

looks like a photo op then it may not be a Photo Shop. Disgusting but at what cost to taxpayers.

Still that CNN photo of the sleeping soldiers was priceless.

44. No Malaise, the photos in this thread are REAL

that is the REAL problem. :)

I was asking if someone could photoshop Bush in front of the Blue Victory "Doll House" and put the soldiers sleeping in next to the house and in back of Bush.

Now I will snap my fingers at the count of three.

I would be awake for two days if I could see somebody I thought was important. Guess that says it all.
