Is Bush the Devil? (Slick Time Photo Layout)

[Rokurota]

Did Time make this layout deliberately to give Bush two red horns on top of his head...Bush the red devil?

[BigSkyFreeper]

Note the bloodshot eyes.

[zarf]

I think you're over the top on this one.

[TheConservator]

I don't. If you don't think Time's editors are aware of this possibility, having run a cover under this format for years and years, you are nuts.

[arasina]

Well TIME wasn't about to use THIS one since it doesn't fit their agenda.

[kingu]

It wouldn't surprise me if they did choose this particular photo because it might look like he has horns. After all, all the images behind his head reflect only the worst of moments in Iraq.

It just would be horrible to remind people of how many people in Iraq are happy, how the Iraqi's danced with joy at Saddam's statues being toppled.

I always get a giggle when the media tries to declare themselves 'neutral.' Yeah, right.

[Bonaparte]

Note the guy on the right in the military uniform, appearing to give a nazi salute. The whole cover is a visual smear of Bush.

[Rokurota]

Maybe so...but do you really put it past the editors at Time to do something like this?

[zarf]

No, but I think it's stretch. I haven't lost my last thin thread of hope that this would be beyond the leftist vermin.

[Rokurota]

Notice all above him seem to be looking down in shock or sorrow...while below we see fire, Rumsfeld whispering in his ear...the prisoner dressed in black looks like some sort of satanic KKK figure...and one of his minnions is saluting.

"neutral"

In our dreams.

Thanks RD

[BigSkyFreeper]

You definately possess alot of patience. I will grant you that. I know I do, but this TIME cover is very biased against Bush.

[zarf]

Anything short of a cover showing Bush with fangs and blood dripping from his finger nails I would consider fair - from the likes of TIme and Snewsweek.

[Rokurota]

thanks. I didn't realize a thread was already started.

Don't think that little things like this don't get noticed by the layout guys. They created the exact image they wanted, fear and suffering (and W as the devil). They know that Kerry is a flip-flop magnet and W's certainty is his strength. They are trying to make it appear that he is just driving us to hell in an SUV and won't stop to ask for directions. If W saving a little kid from drowning, they would still lead with a civilian death in Iraq for their centerfold article.

I haven't lost my last thin thread of hope that this would be beyond the leftist vermin.

That thread should've snapped a long time ago.
Nothing & no one is beyond being maligned by the sinister Left.

The media is like having a very depressed, negative relative around...they destroy your ability see the world rationally.

You have to get them serious help or remove them from your life.... or suffer the consequences of your own world being dragged into the depressive gutter.

I simply can't suffer the negativity of the press anymore.

I think you're over the top on this one.

Are you a professional at what you do? Well, the people who do layout at Time also are. Not one positive image on this cover. Capturing Saddam Hussein for example. Or the deck of cards we had for the top Iraqi fugitives.
