5. I'm glad Mr. Schneck got that out of bush's hands...
Edited on Sun May-13-07 02:26 PM by rasputin1952
whew, even though we "know" that matchlock is unloaded, he very well have saved himself part of his face. With this pinhead, life is like a cartoon, and if there is any way that thing could go off, it would.

I wonder if bush will get one of those tinfoil hats? Seems like the shape is right for his head...:evilgrin:

16. "I'm glad Mr. Schneck got that out of bush's hands"
My first thought was that he probably took it away from *. I didn't see any pictures of how the gun got from *'s hand to Mr. Schneck's.

9. Look @ what you have done Sandy.
That idiot is president thanx to your willingness to break the law and
stop the counting of legit votes in 2000.

You helped in America's first coup. Any of your family in Iraq?

10. Bush doesn't know shit about firearm safety
Edited on Sun May-13-07 02:55 PM by Rob H.
Idiot! Whether he knows for sure or not, a person should always, always assume that a firearm in their hand is loaded and handle it as such. It should either be pointing at the ground or angled upward so no one gets hit if it goes off. You'd think a supposedly super-macho he-man would know something as basic as that.

11. I hope they are replications
One should never handle historical artifacts without gloves.

Idiot on the hoof. I have always wanted to give him his chain saw and then
let him go out alone to "clear brush," God and or physics would take care of the
rest.

12. Scraping the bottom of the barrel...

Scraping the bottom of the barrel, a soldier demonstrates to Bush the only weapons and armor we have left to equip our troops.

13. O'Connor...
was appointed Chancellor of the College of William & Mary last year, so she's been pretty active in the Williamsburg/Jamestown area (she walked with the Queen at the honorary degree ceremony at the College on May 4th, and I'm not surprised that she's involved with the Jamestown 2007 celebration). Doesn't change the fact that she made a terrible mistake in 2000, though...and Bush is still an idiotic douchebag. :(

19. Thanks for the explanation of her presence there.
Before I read that I wondered if she was still some kind of close family friend (urk) -- this at least allows me the illusion that Justice O'Connor lives to regret her part in this historic fiasco and is only there because she has to be as Chancellor of the college.

I would really like to believe that she is sorry about this walking disaster.
