The story---which we have discussed during the thread---addresses the picture taken the year before. So, the picture is three years old.
Politically this has the same stink to it as the Pictures of Clinton with the dope dealers and AlGore at the Buddist Temple.
In fact, I addressed this talking point that I was sure someone would dream up. It is NOT the same.
Were you pleased with the indictment of Al-Arian yesterday? I'm sure President Bush was.
It seems that some of you Bush Bots can't differentiate supporters of GW and those that would bring him down. Norquists putting GW in the position to be bit in the butt by a none too friendly media in the first place should be enough to have the guy fired. And whether you, nor I, nor any supporter of GW thinks that these photo ops and favors done for the Al Arian family is akin to the Clinton/Dope Dealer pix nor AlGore/Buddhist Temple pix also isn't the issue. What is the issue is that Grover Norquist put "our" President in the position that opponents will love to take capital from.
