One of the worst things said about Blair in this article is "his LURID swimwear" LOL

Wouldn't want to offend the terrorists.

Don't be nasty -- wait until you get to his age. You may need at least a size or two bigger.

I am already close to his age, and I still have a rock solid chest.

Little Miss Big Eyes? A cutie. Saw that earlier this am and blew me away. My kids have passports and they could have worn something showing their (GASP) bare shoulders just as easy as not. That incident is just a tiny sample of what it would be like with an Islamic government.

A better view of the offending clothing.

Don't forget the attempts to get American driver's licenses wearing burkas over the face.

Agree with you - Blair seems to have gynaecomastia.

Playing with the "photo op" is nothing new. Frank Capra attacked the press over this tactic in Mr. Smith Goes To Washington.

Also known as "Phil Mickelson Disease." In all seriousness, the problem can be caused by prescription drugs that are commonly used to treat prostate problems.

Funny, I thought about that too. How did that ever turn out? Was she alowed a license with the burka ID picture?

Did you see the LURID swim trunks in post 26? lol

There were multiple states where this has been asked. I think at least one has gotten such a license.

He sure did. That's my all-time favorite movie, BTW.

This is the one I was thinking about in Florida

Florida appellate court rejected the claim of a Muslim woman who wanted to appear veiled in her driver's license photo, with only her eyes showing.

The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles issued [Sultaana] Freeman, 38, a license in 2001 showing her veiled with only her eyes visible, but later suspended it.

Freeman sued, claiming the suspension infringed upon her First Amendment rights.

In 2003, Circuit Judge Janet C. Thorpe agreed with authorities that letting people show only their eyes would undermine efforts to stop terrorists. That same year, Gov. Jeb Bush signed legislation requiring a picture of a driver's full face on a license.

The appeals court found enforcement of the law "did not compel Freeman to engage in conduct that her religion forbids -- her religion does not forbid all photographs."
