President Bush: "Welcome to my hanging"
Yes, that's a direct quote. And no, it's not what you think.
With six weeks left in office, President Bush showed yesterday in his last official visit to Philadelphia that he still knows how to work a crowd.
Bush spent the day here, starting with the morning unveiling of his portrait at the Union League in Center City and ending with the 109th Army-Navy football game.
At the unveiling, Bush greeted 700 guests in the Union League's Lincoln Hall by joking, "Welcome to my hanging."
Exit challenge: Find the picture you think George Bush should be immortalized with and post it in comments. Here's my entry.
He's such a tease.
toying with us in such a dirty fashion. How tawdry and gauche of him.
not literally.
Some stuff you can't make up!
Why not?
Because it's the US and he's rich, therefor right and innocent .......
Should we have a double portrait, one facing forward and one profile?
then, OK.
________________
common sense matters as much as truth
The Bush/Cheney Junta and The Republican Crime Syndicate REFUSED to admit America was heading into a recession and REFUSED to admit America was in a recession in early 2008. Thus REFUSED to take appropriate measures to to keep America safe from terrorism in 2001 and economic disaster in 2008.
The right wing criminals are RESPONSIBLE for all this mess America is in.
Do not trust republicans with governing in local or federal government.
This ENGINEERED economic downturn is just the wealthiest 1% stealing the retirements and life savings of the Babyboomers before they die and pass on their wealth to their offspring.

My wish might come true.
Go Hague!
And the international criminal court that the US dosen't recognize ? ......
Oh I wonder why ........ and that goes back to the double dealing and back handing from WW2.

katrina was the beginning of the end of him.
Here's mine.
McCain hugging the man who sunk his final presidential bid.
Priceless.
Is that the moment McCain sold his soul to the devil for the presidency?
From his lips to God's ears!!!
BTW, his pic should be Alfred E. Neuman. "What, me worry??"

Not soon enough!

I never saw that one before. I would say I hoped he picked a winner, but doing anything right is the antithesis of anything GWB.
He's not pickin' his nose, he's scratching his brain.
The nose pic should be hung in his library.

Is the perfect photo to sum up the total of GWB. This one gets my vote!

This will always remind me of our criminal Preznit.
Vile murdering scumbags, both of them.

That's Probably Tops
I hope dubya hears their souls crying out when it's late at night and he can't sleep.
I tried to post that picture over at Huffington Post twice. They dumped it. Finally, I linked to one they had of Bush and McCain made from 4,000 dead from their own website. That one finally made it through.

After all, it's the perfect combination of hubris, arrogance and hawkish, right?
http://bastardlogic.files.wordpress.com/2008/...
For me this really covers the dumbya legacy as it should be.
And this is the pic the official portrait should have been modeled after.
But Dubya knows you get the justice you pay for.
Window to the soul.
This is my entry, although it requires a little context.

So early in his 1st term, and yet captures perfectly what the world got for the next 8 years...
What?!? No one else has posted this one yet? I'm surprised - they nailed it all the way back in 2000.

Time
Fuck, he looks old.
I think this one is good...but I really love this photoshop.
Who's your daddy?
Here are ten priceless moments in the space of 130 seconds. The #1 moment at the end sums up his 8 years in the White House perfectly
Here are the official portraits of not-soon-enough-to-be-former President George W. Bush and several of his gang captured on genuine velet.
George W. Bush only $350
Dick Cheney only $350
Condalezza Rice only $250
Karl Rove only $200
Joe the Plumber only $250 (sorry, Karl!)
Bill O'Reilly only $200
and a final bizarre portrait (and I do not mean to blame a grunt trapped in someone else's nightmare)...
Lyndie England painted on black velvet and framed as a "Patriot Portrait"-- only $250
George Bush should be immortalized with this fitting portrait.
Make no motto of love that worships war

I wonder how Bush looks in orange?
Here's Alex Ross' view of Bush – I believe it was a Village Voice cover.

I work right across the street from the Union League. They're a bunch of assholes. Wouldn't let women in till the 70s. They also had Bill O'Reilly speak there.
Here is the picture that I feel best immortalizes the 43rd president:

From Bush's lips to God's ears.
of what life will be like in six weeks when NO ONE listens to him any more.
Just give it a couple of years. He won't be joking then.
Politics is for the present, but an equation is for eternity. Albert Einstein
all the way in Dubai, or Paraguay, or whichever fiscal paradise this asshole decides to watch the shit storm from.
And they will wait, like good parasites, for our dumbasses to clean up the mess they left. And once things get back to normal, we will have another Bush to suck us dry. I wonder if it will be the twins or any of Jeb's scions...
He won't be joking but choking?

Another middle finger photo (might be photoshopped but hard to tell)
He seems to have been mistaken about his hanging; ...it will occur AFTER his War Crimes Trial. Vincent Bugliosi will be on this guys ass; like a leechworm for the next 30 years.

Damn. HTML does not work for images in the comments. Here's a link to the photo I think immortalizes the Bush:

I clicked into that clip while I was eating lunch...now I've hurled it all over my desk.

You asked for a picture to immortalize the "Almighty Shrub". Here is my entry. http://whitehouser.com/img/iraq/bush_finger.jpg
I wonder how much the markets spiked when people read the title to this post. I'm just sayin'.....
Interesting how one person can drag the US even lower, and loose the thin veneer that the US stood or stands for any kind of liberty or respect.
I can't see there being any come back for the US, even with Obama.
The mountain is unclimbable, good luck with the damage limitation though.

Anybody remember that story, from Germany about 5 years ago?
While not an actual photo of the Prezidunce, it's what Germans
were doing all over the country, after walking their dogs
Still rings quite true for me:

hey, if it was good enough for Saddam...
Saddam's country was functioning and Bush wrecked it. Bush's country was functioning and he wrecked it. Bush is probably responsible for more Iraqi deaths than Saddam and certainly responsible for more American deaths than Saddam.
I say string him up! The portrait, of course.
