This is a funny Video Snipet of George Bush playing around a bit before some taping. I put it up because it is on DRUDGE and will almost certainly appear at FR.
The source is the infamous Texansfortruth and the gesture is featured on their page:
These guys are really scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Well that did it for me.
I was distraught to the point of tears when I learned that President Bush missed a doctor's appointment in the early seventies... And now this?
I gotta tell ya, I am just so disgusted and disappointed with the President for making that hand gesture several years ago that I will go ahead and place my vote for a lying, manipulative, opportunistic traitor, since clearly this is much more serious than anything he's ever done.
Thank you Texans for Truth for showing me the light.
Middle finger salute, supposedly a relic of the Battle of Agincourt when it was first given to the French by the English (how appropriate) Long Bowmen to show they could still draw and shoot. Now most often used by American drivers to comment on other Americans' driving skills.

Thank's for the explanation.
But why is it called..."Flipping the Bird" in American-Speak ?
Sha.... right!
Just WHICH finger did Bubba use to...?
Don't know. In WWII it was the Fickle Finger of Fate (and even painted on some bombers).
Why are red headed Aussies nick named "Blue"? And what's up with the fetish about stoning crows? PETA's gonna get you for that. Honestly, I'm not sure why we associate the gesture with avian acrobatics but the expression has been around for decades.
Notice how *natural* Johnny looks doing that compared to W?
W looks like he carefully used his other hand to properly position the fingers of the "flipping" hand.
Sorta like somebody trying a "Vulcan salute" for the first time...:))
Let's see. Bush joking around and flipping the bird, and Clinton joking around and putting an afro wig on his head. Guess which one has the rats' panties twisted in a knot?
The dems are really pathetic, God forbid they get in power because America will be pathetic as well.

Well, it is clear now that there is no way he can be president.
Isn't that the official GOP Adam Clymer greeting?
i say we have a day of support for GW and his finger flipping.....do you think the MSM would get that?? we could all line the streets and salute them for our commander in chief! i think the clip is a total hoot. good grief--those hypocritical leftists.....i remember laughing because my 80 year old aunt-in-law flipped someone off in traffic.
reminds me of a statement from another great American,
" My fellow Americans, I am pleased to tell you I just signed legislation which outlaws Russia forever. The bombing begins in five minutes "
Ronald Reagan, during a radio microphone test, 1984
I remember that one. It brought some chuckles at the time, but the Dems did try to make a contoversy out of it.
