President Bush's realtime response to the "5 fingered wave"
Posted on 11/30/2004 7:41:55 PM PST by Entropy Squared
The "5 fingered wave" has now gone international. For all of you Free Dominioners, and other principled conservatives, who stood in the cold for over three hours to welcome American President Bush to Canada, here is your reward.
Personally...I feel overpaid.
This one is actually from Peru...
If Dubya was trying to give the "Live long and prosper" wave, he failed miserably.

I'm so sorry! Maybe it's your operating system? I am NOT a guru. All I know is that I'm running Explorer and it works.
Is that true? Way kewl.
Way kewl indeed!
....And fun too.
Thanks DrDeb,
E^2 posted it on my behalf. There were about 100 of us there all giving him the "five fingered wave". He gave us a Presidential Thumbs-up for a Canadian "Five-fingered" wave.
There are plenty of photos of the day going up at Free Dominion - www.freedominion.ca

Hey Humidston,
Thanks. As for details, I was at the front of the welcoming line. I had the camera on multiple shot and wide angle to increase the odds of getting a good shot, and sure enough I did.
The funny thing is that when I sent the photo to friends and family they all thought the president was giving *me* the thumbs up. He was giving *Canada* the thumbs-up!

Thanks, Angelwood.
I took the picture. It was quite a thrill when I looked at the screen and saw what I'd captured. My only regret is that I didn't have it on telephoto mode to get a clearer shot.
There are a ton of pics that many people took at Free Dominion - www.freedominion.ca
My second favourite was a "President's eye view" I took by risking a quick step into the road.

See post 17 for a demonstration of the five finger wave.
Hi Judy,
We were indeed that close. That's part of the reason we were able to get so many great shots of the President. I was a little trigger happy myself with the digital camera and had to wade through 200 shots when I got home, but that one shot of the President giving us the thumbs up made it all worthwhile!

Wow! This is a great way to get larger print. It sure helps a tri-focal wearer like. The things you learn from fellow freepers.
You have to ask? Or was sarcasm on?
Oh, I so wanted to be there.
I am glad you guys were able to give him the warm welcome he so deserved.
Wasn't his speech great?
Two hundred pictures too much? Never. Just flip through them very quickly and they turn into an old-fashioned movie.
Marxism and feminism....cute, very cute.
As in Hook em Horns?

Naw... THree fingers up on one hand ("W") and one finger up on the other ("1") for W1 (dubya won). Depending on who the recipient is, you can choose which finger to use for the "1".
Gotcha. W1. Thanks.
Bush shoulda been in a gun turret returning the one finger salute. Thin out the socialist population.
