Picture of the Day - 2




From a series of photos of Bush attempting to give German Chancellor Merkel a backrub at the G8.

Tell me that doesn't look like office harassment you've seen before. Check out the whole series, you'll see what I mean.

(Two links in case the original gets overloaded.)

  • How quaint, Eva and Adolf sharing a tender moment.

  • The man is so embarrassingly out of his depth... He hasn't a frickin' clue.

    This is the President of the United States!?

  • Hmmm... a president man-handling a female?

    Where are the calls for impeachment, pray tell?

  • It just reminded me of a bad office situation I was around many years ago. A boss (the stupid boss I referenced yesterday) would go around touching the women in the office like this and they just hated it, but he didn't stop because he didn't think he was doing anything wrong.

    In the boss's mind it was a male female issue, but to the women it was about being accepted as an equal.

    In Merkel's obvious discomfort, I see that frat boy. "Yo, Blair.".

  • A) Can you imagine Bush doing this to Putin, or any male head of state (other than Toady, er Tony Blair)?

    B) Can you imagine any manager in America doing this to a peer? It's like an a scene form "The Office."

    It's all so flaming embarrassing!

  • You got my point in A, and unfortunately, I've seen B.
