Larry Summers, the president's top financial adviser, apparently isn't getting a lot of sleep.

Notice the “Easy” button on the box in front of the Messiah.

That is "The Button". It used to be wired to the Pentagon in the 1980s to tell them it is time to destroy Russia and China. It has now been redirected to the Treasury to tell them to destroy Citibank and Bank of America.

I have FireFox w/ Windows Vista, but I don't think I have that ability. To enlarge the screen I hold down Ctrl, Delete and + at the same time. I actually hit + on the numbers keypad while holding down the other two (Ctrl and Delete). - reduces the page.

The blonds on the left are asleep too. Notice they're both smiling.

I’m on a Mac. I just hold the control button down, and zoom in using the scroll wheel. People have told me that that works on some pcs. When you zoom in, you can clearly see his eyes are open. HE”S NOT ASLEEP! Too bad, but this thread is bogus.

I enlarged my screen and did a cropped screen capture. Looks like his eyes are closed to me.

I used the pic that was in the now deleted post #6. It was a much clearer photo, and, believe me, his eyes were clearly still open in that pic. Maybe this pic you’re viewing was a latter pic, but they look they look to be the same.

Anyone else think the blonde looks like she’s enjoying herself a little too much?
