Were There AS MANY Goofy Pictures Of Clinton As We See Of Bush*?
I mean... we ALL take a bad picture once and awhile.... that goofy pose or oddball expression that isn't very flattering.

But... GOOD GRIEF! Is Bush* that UNphotogenic? Is the THAT idiotic looking ALL THE TIME?? Or are we cherry-picking the worst ones?

1. I can't remember seeing any good pics of Bush.
He used to have "the smirk" plastered on his face a lot...until one of his advisers, I'm sure, told him to cool it.

If there IS a good picture of Bush, I haven't seen it.

3. Bush's* Suppressed Smirk Reminds Me Of "Private Pyle" In Full Metal Jacket
when he can't keep himself from giggling at his drill Sergeant.

2. Probably just more access
Sure Clinton likely took plenty of bad photos, but they weren't on the Internet like Bush's are. Although there's no doubt that Clinton was much more photogenic. And intelligent. And honest. And decent.

4. Clinton was usually, you know, WORKING
when he was being photographed.

This is direct contrast to * who always, no matter the context, seems to be goofing off. :grr:

5. Not possible.Bush is an ugly idiot.
So it's easy to catch him looking stupid. Clinton was a bright, charismatic guy. Hard to get a goofy pic of him.

7. I think Clinton was very careful about his public image
So he would behave accordingly, except for two situations:

1. Jogging, showing pasty white thighs

2. When he had hold of a Big Mac. That was never pretty.

9. I said "public image"
But he probably had that same look in his eye that you'd see as he was lunging at that burger. Eeeek! If I saw that coming at me I'd run for my life!

11. And they MAKE him mispronounce words...
and they PURPOSELY write difficult and complex sentences with long words that he cannot read.
