"It reminds me of the famous scene in the first "Raiders of the Lost Ark" ..."
Most of the world probably knows this already, but I thought it was an interesting story:
The scene where Indiana Jones shoots the sword-wielding assassin (played by Terry Richards) in the market was improvised on the set. Harrison Ford had been suffering from dysentery and exhaustion due to the extreme heat of Tunisia during filming. As originally planned, the scene was elaborately choreographed, with Jones facing the expert swordsman and trying to defeat him with just his whip. Some footage of the planned fight was shot (and was seen in at least one of the movie's trailers) but the filming was proving to be very tedious, both for Ford and the crew, and at some point Ford had had enough. Reportedly, he said something to Spielberg along the lines of, "Why don't we just shoot the sucker?" Spielberg liked the idea, scrapped the rest of the fight scene, and filmed the brief sequence of the shooting that appears in the movie.

But the totally, non-corrupt, freedom loving, 100% legitimate UN oversaw his 'election' and said the same thing as Jimmuh. They can't both be wrong, can they?
Its pretty good. I may have to start using it for the Hugo Pings!
No, it's a photoshop of a cartoon first published in La Republica in Peru back in June. Someone's changed the captions. Same idea though.

Heh, I'm thinking, in this instance, that "Todo lo que digas", is an idiom for 'Yeah, whatever!'.
I think in this instance it would be "Mycaca" or "micaca es su caca."
It's Jimmah Cawtuh and the UN, how can you doubt they're wrong.

Bush knows he is just a blowhard and his words have no meaning.
There is no self-service gas in Oregon.
Thanks! I really love that first "Raiders of the Lost Ark" movie.
