Is This Pic Evidence That Bush Wears LIFTS IN HIS SHOES?
Edited on Mon Sep-27-04 08:37 PM by Beetwasher


Look at this picture and notice a couple of things; the thickness of the soles of his shoes and the height of his pants' cuffs. His cuffs are pretty high above his shoes because he's wearing lifts inside the shoes that were not there when his pants were tailored.

Notice the cuffs of the one guy whose hand he's shaking, and Rove's. They dip down behind the heel and rest on lower on the front of the shoes than Chimpys. That's how a well tailored suit fits in the cuffs. Not high up like Chimpys.

I'd say he's probably around 5'7''.

4. I believe it
He just ain't that tall at all, is he? That's been obvious for a while now, I guess they figured we were on to them or this is for the debates. Yet another stupid lie.

33. we don't come here to debate
we come here to be among other people who think the same way we do. this is not the place for debates between the bush supporters and the bush haters (and christ do i hate him).

this is our place to get away from all the talking heads and repukes that are all over cable news (and that you cannot deny for if you do you deny reality)

i would be more than happy to have an honest, open, clean and intelligent debate with you via email or AIM or something of the sort, and if you want to, then go ahead, markLS414 for AIM and mark@macwi.com for MSN messenger.

but this is not the place.

smart are they? The next post will have spelling errors (they have a complete inability to hit that little button on the bottom left, you know).

42. Relax. She's about 16 years old. Let the mods deal.
Check out her Xanga web page. It's all about proms and school trips and "I {heart} Justin" for Miss Emily.

After she gets her face pushed in the dirt a few hundred times by her Republican heroes, she'll wise up. Ought to take her about three, four years.

60. Usually wears those very thick soles.
Check out the full-body pictures whenever you get a chance. Other men wear regular shoes with a distinguishable heel, Bush wears a full-shoe thick sole that has to add an inch or more. He may have lifts inside, as well -- never thought about that. His military records list him as 5'11". The thick-soled shoes are godawful. You know he'll be doing everything in his power to (1) raise his own height and (2) prevent the contrast with Kerry. That superficial shit is their whole game.

32. For interesting reading you should see the way people are
registering IN DROVES just for the pleasure of voting against Bush in November.

Those new voters aren't counted by the polls.

On November 3rd the story will be how badly Bush lost this election.

Usually we're a bit nicer about freepers (hitting the alert button and all that), but when you have one that admits it on the second post, well, that's just too tempting! Again, welcome. :hi:

53. I remember the Big Dog TOWERING over him as they walked together
I think on inauguration day ? Somewhere outside the Whitehouse it seems. Bush looked very uncomfortable walking, seemed like he was trying to keep up and look presidential (looked stiff - corn cobish) when Billy Boy looked sooooooo cool and natural in his stride .... Bush looked like a nervous shrimp chimp next to him...

by letting him wear lifts. They should just hire short folks to be seen with him.

w* could really use a pair. Perhaps several.

Honestly, I would much rather stick to the issues in GD2004. I mean, so the guy's a bumbling idiot. That's already been well established.

59. Doesn't mean anything
Many of his clothes don't fit correctly so too-short pants are just par for the course.

He can afford decent tailoring so I have no idea why his clothes don't fit. Maybe he just doesn't know the difference or perhaps Rove thinks badly fitted suits make him look "folksy."
