NEW YORK In what seems to be destined to become one of the most yacked about photos of the month, if not year, a Reuters photographer today seems to have captured President George W. Bush scribbling a note to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice suggesting that he needed to take a "bathroom break" during a session at the United Nations.

After decoding the note, I can assure you that President Bush was quoting General Patton saying, "I'm going to rip that Ethiopian bastard Annan head of and piss into his skull".

That is close.

Were President Reagan's & President George W. Bush's handwritings similar?

Was Reagan left or right-handed?

Remember that Patton was dyslexic and was a terrible speller. He often spelled "off"..."of". The correct spelling is OFF.....rip his head OFF....

Was Reagan left or right-handed?

From Some Site on the Internet I just Googled:

Left-Handed U.S. Presidents
James A. Garfield  (1831-1881) 20th
Herbert Hoover  (1874-1964) 31st
Harry S. Truman  (1884-1972) 33rd
Gerald Ford  (1913-    ) 38th
Ronald Reagan  (1911 -    ) 40th
George H.W. Bush  (1924-    ) 41st

" It's not. They know exactly what they're doing."

Reuters has learned nothing from Dan I'dRatherBeForging.
The top is not President Bush's writing.
The bottom-maybe.
Someone should alert Reuters about the internet and the ability of the truth militia to cross- check their " facts."

I seem to recall that Clinton got picked up on a microphone telling his wife he had to go to the bathroom during a post-inauguration receiving line.

The note is strange in that, "I MAY NEED A BATH..." is all in caps, while the rest of the note is a mixture of lower & upper case letters. Unless the intention was to "shout" like posters do online.

No, you are wrong. President Bush is right handed. There have been dozens of photos showing him signing papers. He is right handed.

I think the note actually says, "These UNers really fry me...I'd like to take a bathroom break on their shoes."

LOL. New corollary: "Don't eat yellow snow. And don't read yellow journalism."
