Two years ago I might have thought so

Back in May, 2001, GWB was in office a mere 5 months when I posted the attached picture on a website that I was maintaining for the "Politics" room in Pogo's AliBaba slot game. The site mainly had pictures and details about some of the members, but I included a political humor section. I thought the picture was somewhat funny at the time.

Now, after hearing accusations of "Laura Bush's drug-induced glazed eyes", "GWB putting a chokehold on his dog Barney" and other such ridiculous allegations and moronic attacks based on the way people look, I see this as just another moronic one, so no longer find it very funny.

Face it, Presidential faces get captured on film from every angle, so it's easy to compile a comparison between human expressions (that EVERYONE has made) on a President and post them next to similar expressions on a human-like creature. The inference, of course is that GWB is no more intelligent than a chimpanzee. With a little bit of research, someone could find and compile a set of Clinton pictures to substitute for the GWB ones.

I guess that I found it initially funny. Now that I understand the whacko perspective of the radical left wing, I just find it more pathetic than anything.

Re: Anyone think this is funny?

Well the humour that I find most funny is intelligent humour, the humour of quick witty one liners, so I found it funny initially but it doesn't have lasting appeal I'm afraid......

Plus knowing how humourless Republicans are I was awaiting the backlash... ...

I like Bush for the most part, but I still thought it was pretty funny!

Well if Republicans are "humourless" and this board is any indication of people's sense of humor, then liberals are in running a huge deficit as far as humor is concerned. I can recall (and direct you to) MANY posts that conservatives have made on this board which are downright hilarious. I don't recall much of anything you've posted which was funny, King. Help me out and point me to an instance!

Okay...posting someone else's joke may qualify. Now help King out and find one of his posts that was funny! Just one?
