While Americans Wait to be Evacuated from Lebanon, Someone Should Ask – Hey George, What’s In That Bottle?

by Pamela Leavey

While Americans in Lebanon wait for an evacuation plan, George W. Bush has been taking part in photo-ops at the G-8 Summit. Here’s another priceless photo-op moment (hat tip to Dizzy Dezzi)…

Maybe someone should be asking — Hey George, what’s in that bottle?

In an update on my post below, the LA Times reports that “U.S. security teams arrived by helicopter Sunday at the U.S. Embassy in Beirut to start planning the evacuation of Americans from Lebanon.”

Witnesses said two helicopters flew over the Mediterranean and landed on the embassy grounds, located on a fortified hilltop in the north Beirut suburb of Aukar.

Two helicopters? Two helicopters… for an estimated 25,000 Americans living or working in Lebanon?

Let me just repeat… It’s a freakin mess over there!

Get our citizens out of there!

Mr. Bush was asked about his relationship with Mr. Putin. “Solid friendship,” Mr. Bush said. Before walking back inside, he added, “Go find some Russian vodka and relax.”

  1. Pamela,

    Like I said in the mail, if you enlarge the pic, it looks like Lite Beer from Miller. Directly behind the bottle on the table, is some more of those bottles iced down by the back wall. And look at that Boob!! He looks smashed!!

    I missed the ice bucket setup — great FBI work!!! I did see the two filled wine goblets, a water goblet in front of Pootie, the designated driver, and Georgie’s wasted SmirkinChimp facial grimace. Enough clues for my decision making process.

  3. Dotti,

    An advantage to having windows pic and fax viewer is that you can pan in and out. The bucket does have the same bottles as the one in front of him. Another thing I noticed, is that all the glasses on the table seem to have clear looking liquids. The exception is the beer bottle.

  4. Geez!!!

  5. Donnie

    Thanks for the background info.

    I’m so very curious. What do you think Pootie is directing Georgie to do with such a stern expression on his face, as he points to his left?

  6. LOL janet, That’s your prez!! Aint you proud?

    Dotti, I reckon that he is saying:

    Alright, enough is enough. I just had a wife next to me a few minutes ago. This is no longer funny. And don’t you even think about puking on me like your dad would! So sit your ass down PLEASE!!

  7. Donnie

    ROTFL!!! I needed that. Thanks.

    I rest my case and am signing off. Pleasant evening and Peace to all.

  8. Bush don’t drink alcohol what you see in front of him Russion A&W Root Beer , just ask him he’ll tell you.
    Bush is a joke and always will be , and someone else is seeing it too. He is only good for money and if it don’t go his way your out.
    His the order the leak on Valarie Plame to get even with Joe Wilson.
    The Democrates better get their sh– together or they’ll be crying the blues come Nov.
    You know I’m about fed up with both parties, the peoples voice is nothing any more so come election time most people don’t know where to place their vote. Dems wake up and smell the roses

  9. I think maybe he got into Ron’s appletinis.

    Must be some strong Root Beer… :roll:

    We’ve been smelling the roses for a long time around here – and the coffee too. Thanks for sharing.

  11. Root Beer? LOL. I don’t think so. I cannot believe that he took a pic that makes him look even more goofy, than he usually does. That boy has talent.

  12. Donnie

    Maybe it is Sarsaparilla! ;)

  13. Whatever it is, he really does look like he is about to hurl!!

  14. Donnie

    Maybe it was the pig the night before…

  15. LOL That Fool is DRUNK!!!

  16. Actually, it looks like he’s farting.

  17. Yeah, this is very funny. I even sent this picture around with funny notes to some friends.
    The truth however is much more sinister. Bush’s international hubris is a symptom of the current government’s lack of respect for democracy and the Constitutional standing of treaties that have been ratified by the United States.
    We are the laughing stock of the world, and the real joke is on us. My friends abroad refuse to visit here anymore, and I constantly have to try to reassure them that not EVERYONE in America has gone mad or had a lobotomy.
    Until we can effectively counter the spin of the corporate controlled media that are key to manufacturing consent for the Bush administration’s fascist agenda, nothing we say or do will matter. We have to stand up!

  18. These postings remind me of a story I read, written by the late S. Hunter Thompson, about his attendance at a luncheon for the press, given by Jimmy Carter in his campaigning for prez days. Everyone had glasses of iced tea. Hunter got thirsty for The Devil’s Brew, so he left the table before Carter’s speech, holding his glass of iced tea, went to his car and got out a bottle of Wild Turkey. He dumped the ice tea, retaining the ice cubes and mint sprig, and refilled the glass with Wild Turkey. It was exactly the color of the iced tea, which Hunter had figured and put to use to disguise his booze. He went back inside and to his table place, “iced tea” in hand. People around him began to whisper about smelling booze, but not seeing any …..

    I wonder if Our Fearless Leader is doing something similar. Or is he just the Frat Boy Who Can’t Grow Up?
