Ribbon Slutting. I Mean Cutting

U.S. President George W. Bush, second left, cuts a ribbon as he officially opens the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan Wednesday, March 1, 2006.

Also, can we deconstruct this just a tad? I'd say that Laura Bush has a firmer grip on her husband than Condi has on her diplomatic corps. *rimshot* And Karzai? Heck, he doesn't need any hand-holding; he's got the power of Unocal behind him!

And, yow, what the heck is going on between Condi 'n' Laura? Check it out:

I'd say that Laura Bush got the last fluffy pillow on Air Force One. Condi looks pissed off and tired.

Condi is wishing Laura hadn't come along on the trip. She likes it better when it's just her and her "husband"

I love that Condi has that whole "that bitch stole my man!" look and Laura has the "yup, you ho, what you gonna DO about it?!?" look. Wonderful. What that pic doesn't show is that there was mud wrestling later.

It's also good that Condi and Laura are clearly not moving their lips while Dubya speaks. It seems so real!

What the frell? Women are incapiab;le of handling sharp objects? why are they just holding hands?

Laura does seem to be gloating that she got the ring and all Condi got was *the thing*.
Meanwhile, Bush is telling the crowd about the carp he caught in the Afghanistan Creek.

How come Whore-hey's invisible friend is so much bigger than Condi's--maybe that's what Laura's gloating about.

Or it's a knowing nod between the girls that boy's ALWAYS sexaggerate their size.

Or, or she's about to bend her knee behind Chimpy's. Oh please, show us the third frame, princess.

God I love this blog. The last picture is NOT one of Condi's best and Laura looks like she's off her meds or OD'd on em, I don't know which.
