Buttongate: Bush’s Shirt
The Political Teen ^ | 9.16.05 | Blogs, et al.

Posted on 09/17/2005 9:12:26 PM PDT by SquirrelKing

A lot of liberal bloggers are commenting on this picture. Apparently Bush didn’t button the top button of his shirt in the correct position.

Is it just me or is it a bit hypocritical for Democrats to be commenting on people’s clothes after this:

Shirt is fine. He is just leaning to one side making it look funny. If that's all they have they are done.

Liberals are putrid. I also think Bush's button thing is fine. The other side is folded so it gives the appearance of being buttoned wrong. That's how it looks to me anyway.

I don't see anything wrong with the button. The visible button is for the top of the collar.

That's an optical illusion...the shirt is buttoned correctly.

If it were misbuttoned the pocket would be up around his collarbone.

They are just trying to take the heat off SUV-hating Arianna Huffington for being photographed in a Chevy Suburban after being keynote speaker at the Sierra Club summit in San Francisco.

between this non-event, and the note he wrote to Dr. Rice about a head call, the lefty's have hit rock bottom,
and we need to start placing fill dirt over the hole they have dug and climbed into.

That's the general idea. Shoulder tilt, head angle.

If you check out some on the threads you'd think he crapped his pants on camera or something.

This from a group of people whose hero wandered around the Oval Office with his pants down.

Excellent comment below the picture.


Ian, I hate to disappoint the liberal bloggers, but if you really dissect the picture, Bush did NOT mis-button his shirt. Look at the distance between top button and collar edge. His left-shoulder collar is just riding higher than the right. There is nothing amiss in this picture except the liberals’ inherent desire to paint Bush as anything sub-human. His shirt is buttoned just fine.

(The caveat to this is, if the fold at his right collar-bone is deeper than it appears, then I would be wrong. His head is also tilted downward moreso on the right side toward his collar-bone, and his left is extended upward. However, the fact that libs are focusing on this as well as the fact that our President ACTUALLY uses the bathroom only proves how desperate they are to disparage him!.. Buttons? Bathroom-breaks? The Left accuses him of thinking he is a Superhero, acting “unilaterally,” but when he indicates he needs to exercise a normal human bodily function, it actually makes him un-presidential? As John Stossel would say “Gimme a break!”)

Yes, I'm sure he dressed himself and nobody had a chance to check him to see if his shirt was buttoned crooked before he went on Prime Time to give one of the most important speeches of his career.

What I don't understand, is why politicians don't wear Oxfords. Is it some sort of anti-elitist thing?

The shirt is perfectly buttoned. I for the life of me don't see what they are talking about. However, it sounds to me like the Liberal Moonbats must be leaning too far to one side and their view of how his shirt is buttoned is distorted.

Oooh, and look at his chin, it looks like a bruise, maybe from an ashtray thrown at him by Laura? Oooh, oooh...

You don't have to be stupid to be a liberal blogger, but it helps!

It's too late for them to get a life--they wouldn't know what to do with it.
