Looking at Ole Crusty, I'm more inclined to believe she's praying but look at ole Toon's face. His chin looks like it's quivering and I don't mean from grief either *lol*
If the hag is praying, it's to Satan.
If you look at Betty Ford in the second picture, it's as if she's thinking: "I cannot BELIEVE that I have to stand behind these assclowns!"
