This photo was printed in today's L.A. Times. I discovered it on Tom Tomorrow's blog. It comes from a Yale publication during Bush's undergraduate days. The caption that is on the photo is the original caption.
It is funny because Tom Tomorrow seems to suggest that this action should prove to people that Bush is a thug, someone who will do anything, even openly break the rules, to win a battle. The problem is that most the people that are voting for him already know this, and his thuggishness is a big part of what they like about him.
Bush's strongest supporters by far are white males. These are guys who don't believe in evolution because they haven't got there yet. They're still hunched near a tree waiting to club a date or shoot their food. Haven't these apes heard of Match.com or a supermarket?
Seriously, though, this photo, if anything, helps Bush with the neanderthal electorate, you know the "I-could-have-a-beer-with-that-guy" crowd.
All of this being said, we really should look at this picture, look at it closely. We need to ask ourselves a serious question: How did this guy become the President of the United States? It is utterly embarassing.
I guess he must have sucker-punched his way all the way to the top.
