Presidents need pee breaks, too

Posted on September 14, 2005 @ 6:42 pm

Reuters brings us what is quite possibly the best photograph ever — a shot taken earlier today of George W. Bush writing a note to Condoleeza Rice during the 2005 United Nations World Summit.

Let’s take a closer look at that note, shall we?

Priceless. Absolutely priceless. I’m glad to see that President Bush is getting a head start on writing his memoirs. I have to wonder, though, if Condi gave him permission to leave. Or does that require a hall pass from Kofi Annan?

Anyway, if it’s Photoshopped, somebody certainly fooled Reuters (see it here and here on Yahoo News). Links via Waxy.

    That post just made me incredibly happy. Not happy because it confirms my belief that our country is run by the world’s biggest moron; but happy because– well, I was right!

    That is one of the greatest pictures I have ever seen. How did they manage to take that at just the right time? Pulitzer Prize material for sure.

    At least your president can write.

    They also took a close up photo of a wet spot near the fly of Bush’s tousers…

    CAPTION: After emerging from the United Nations executive washroom, President Bush was overheard saying to Secretary-General Kofi Annan, “No matter how you wiggle or how you dance, the last drop always ends up in ‘ur pants.”

    Everyone has this photo now; even it’s fake, it would be hard to live this down in the public’s memory.

    You’re BACK! I was starting to worry about you :D

    LMAO! Oh my gosh, that is, without a doubt, the second best photo I have *ever* seen!

    Ohh, I wonder if he raised his hand and asked if he could be excused?

    The caption is wrong. That is actually a 1998 photo of W’s predecessor writing a note to Monica.

    unfortunately for the lone Bush supporter there, if you look at the top photo, the report in front of him is clearly labeled 2005, this making your Clinton supposition-quite lame…

    Oh, really, this is too priceless.

    you shouldn’t be so certain it was a ‘pee’ break. Maybe he was just SOOO full of shit at that point….
