Isn't there something, well, kind of sleazy about it?

Or is it just me?.......

1. "No, George Bush was the President, I wasn't running things.
I just happened to have my pic snapped where every POTUS makes a speech. Pure coincidence. Really."

2. Arrogance...
Cheney got all the policies that he had hoped for. In essence, he might as well have been the President.

8. Our book delivery guy brought them in Tuesday
20 copies which we know we will never sell, I suggested he leave them in a tote in the backroom and not bother to stock them at all. I think he put a few out just to CYA in case his bosses come through, but I a pretty sure they all did not go out.

9. Maybe they'll go the way of the grifter's book
Saw a signed copy at Borders the other day and it had been
Marked down to $2.99. Since they are going out of business,
It came down to $1.50.

18. The lamps are a different height.
He probably has a hallway in his house that looks just like it.

14. Notice how he's gazing to the right
A poster said the photo was reversed. Was it to make sure that he looked to the right, not the left?

Yes, the photo is sleazy.

16. You mean the word 'Dick' placed so strategerly like?
Edited on Wed Aug-31-11 06:50 AM by lunatica
and his hands in his pocket looking like he's holding the Dick?

I noticed that immediately upon seeing it and think it's quite deliberate.
