Need Your Help LOUNGERS
(you know, whilst yer lounging...)

I'm working on a project that i need images for. You don't have to provide me with the images, but you can tell me and i can go look for them.

I am looking for images that were widespread but that people didn't see much of. (particularly the 70%, MSM watching crowd).

In other words, what sticks out in your head as the big images/memories of the last 5 years, that aren't the more obvious ones. Like, not the towers getting hit, but the next tier down. So far i have

the prisoners sensory deprived at Guantanamo,
the man stuck out on that van in Katrina,
Bush giving out the "Medal of Freedom" to Tenet, Franks, and that other little fatty,
and the flightsuit....

i need more.

please post them or remind me of them.... whatever comes to mind....

THANKS!!!!!

2. i was thinking that too, but do you think that the hooded guy on the box
with the wires is too known. I know you don't know the project, but let's say that's the most known photo.... what's the second most known? The dogs barking at the soldier? Lindsay englund giving the thumbs up?

And THANKs for writing me back....

3. Hmmm, I'd say the Lynndie England picture would be the second...
There's also one of her with a guy on a leash, which is probably less recognizable still.

16. There is a picture rolling around somwhere of John Kerry outside
a middle school, smiling in at a group of kids who are gathered at the window. It just radiated the hope we all had.
