Yeah, I mean if the photographer had only known the note contained the word "bathroom" there would have been 25 pix instead of only 2. Maybe they'll run an online contest for the best bathroom joke too.
Honestly...

What a sleazy bunch of slugs these are!!!!!!!!! Well at least it proves the President is, in fact, a real person like the rest of us. I wonder that many of the reporters/photographers can say the same.
I think we should start a campaign to see how many of these breaks everyone in government makes. lol

Any of y'all remember how quickly they scotched the picture of Hillary, running for the Senate, coming out of a bathroom with toilet paper being dragged by one foot? Where's the equality?

If Rick knew what he was writing we'd have 25 pictures of this, not two.
Um, why?

The President of the United States uses the toilet just like everyone else in the world!!!!!!!!! That's right. And right after he's finished his biden, he takes some tp and wipes his kennedy.

Even DU was convinced it was a photoshop deal. And many posters posted about the poor quality of photoshoping.

I wonder if they were as quick to get a picture of the former chief executive writing a note on how he needed to find a zoftig intern with a blue dress to defile

A source at the Washington Post tells E&P that the paper is considering it for prominent play tomorrow morning, in the context that, at least in some minds, it raises questions about overall perception of the U.S. at the United Nations, right or wrong. Reuters reports extremely strong interest in the photo today. Oh my. This, breathlessly followed by...
The fact is, according to Reuters--and this has not been widely reported--President Bush did indeed take a bathroom break after passing the note to Rice.
If anything I've read lately deserves a "WTF", this is it.
Apparently there is no bottom to the barrel in which the left resides.

Because if he had he would have followed the President into the stall and noted how many pieces of toilet paper he used.And then we'd have an envirnmental story about the misuse of our forests. LOL! The funniest part is that you are 100% correct!

"I think I may need a bathroom break. Is this possible?" the pencil-written note reads.
Bush indecisive yet again.First he waffles about sending in FEMA, and now he's not sure about needing the bathroom.And how about that manicure? DUmmiepeak
To: StrangerInParadise
Clinton didn't take a cr@p for 8 years! What's wrong with Bush?????
Strange that the media didn't think it big news that Algore had to go to the bathroom at the monks fundraising event. They used it as an excuse as to why "he didn't know it was a fundraiser."

I've seen the picture many times today. I could be wrong but I believe that someone wrote the note and gave it to the President and in the photo President Bush is responding to that person.I'm with you and said essentially the same thing on one of the threads......

The real story is the corruption of the UN. They coddle dictators and communists, they steal money, they look the other way at child rape, and genocide, yet all Reuters is concerned about is that the leader of the free world may have breached protocol because he needed to use the bathroom. The dinosaur media, it's dying for a reason.

One actually had a comparison of the potty-note handwriting and some other note.
While it is hard to tell because the note is in block test, the top part does NOT appear to be Bush's handwriting, while the bottom part does. (The capital "I's" are different, in particular.)
I suspect Condi was asking the question and Bush is responding.
