Taking Him In From Behind
These soldiers just graduated from basic training. Almost a third will be going to Iraq and Afghanistan. President Bush is addressing them, congratulating them, exhorting them to continue the fight. I understand the need for a good photo-op. But unless the Presidential Podium is on a rotating stage like those they had in 80’s metal videos1, isn’t it rude to force them to look at the Presidential Posterior while he speaks?

Now that I look at that video again, maybe the stage didn’t rotate. There goes another cherished childhood conceit. ↩
Yet somehow appropriate, seeing as they’ll be eating his shit from here on out.
