Of Bush, Kerry, and Bush's Necktie

I noticed something last night.

G.W. Bush's necktie was askew. It looked unprofessional. I wondered HOW in the heck that could have happened.

Then during the replay, I saw how it happened. When Kerry greeted Bush, Kerry held on to Bush's hand as Bush was walking away. Bush was forced to awkwardly stretch his torso, dislodging the correct placement of the tie.

I initially thought it was all happenstance. But on further review, I saw that Kerry made a point of adjusting his tie after the handshake, just in case the manuever dislodged his too.

Maybe it was an accident, maybe not. I think not. If anyone has contacts to Bush, please advise them of this possible purposeful action, or at the very least, MAKE SURE BUSH'S TIE IS STRAIGHT. I was focused on the tie, it looked so sloppy.

Thanks for the color info on tie

TIE-GATE!

Civil Wars have been fought for less. Have the rats no shame?!? Dare I ask?

Can you tell me what the color meant?

According to this, it means stability, wisdom, confidence...

I'm not smart so I don't know if Laz is.

I do know witty though and he is that.

[T Minus Four]

Notice that pink, Kerry's usual tie color, denotes feminine qualities and passiveness.

See this image, of one of Lincoln's opponents.

D'ya think that the Civil War was just COINCIDENCE??!?!???!??!??!??!??!?

I'm a turnip.

But I'm a sexy, sexy turnip indeed.

We really need to start a "Best of Laz" thread

[swheats]

Everything for the photo-op. Hope this will be the closest he'll ever get to the presidency.

Oh great.

ANOTHER thread with exactly one post.

LOL!

I think Bush should eschew the coat and tie next Friday, roll up his sleeves and talk with the folks. He's more relaxed and does a better job in "business casual."

I was thinking of that very same thing. Go Bush.

FINALLY MoJo, someone after our heart(s).

GOOD one, Laz. Good one. :-)

I'm waiting for Laz to give us a math lesson on how many pennies saved per day = a $5 per monthly donation to Free Republic.

The last time he did this, we were Stuned and Awed.

If I don't respond my wife has me on a short leash and a long honey do day.

[BushisTheMan]

I'm afraid I do.

[Conservative4Ever]

Wouldn't ya just love to see Bush walk out, take off his jacket, roll up his sleeves, step up to the mike...and say something to the effect..."OK let's get this soiree over with, I got work to do." Things I would pay to see. :)

AND YOU DIDN'T AUTHOR A LONG, TEARFUL MEMORIAL THREAD??!?!?!

I was too broken up to post. It's hard to type when you are weeping over a fifth in a seedy bar in the warf district.

[BushisTheMan]

Neither. I am a 247-foot tall radiation-enhanced insect that routinely ravages Tokyo, crushing tanks under my massive scaled feet. This is witty and smart?

[jellybean]

Laz is the only one who thinks he is witty and smart.

Speak for yourself little one. I think he's witty and smart as do most on FR.

Perhaps you're seratonin deficient.
