"U.S. President George W. Bush writes a note to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice during a Security Council meeting at the 2005 World Summit and 60th General Assembly of the United Nations..." [Link]

It says: "I think I may need a bathroom break? Is this possible..."

P.S. This is not a photoshop, btw.

How can you "think" you need a bathroom break? You either need to piss or you don't....

Funny when I read the title I figured maybe you realized you might be full of it.

Yeah, I thought that was weird too. It's like not only is he asking Condi for permission to piss, he's asking Condi if he actually *has* to piss?! WTF?

Does see dress him in the morning too? /shakes head

They do have to piss, well, maybe take a dookie....no, definitely piss......Wait, sorry, dookie!

Funniest part to me is that Bush is hailed as the "decisive" president...

No, Green Day wasn't even a twinkle in anyone's eyes before the phrase was coined.

Ya know, it looks like Bush is writing a reply TO the bathroom break note(diffrent handwriting), meaning Miss Rice was asking to go potty and Bush was asking how bad she needed to go.

Either way, it seems rather obvious that you'd have to ask for a recess during a meeting in the UN. It would be disruptive, to say the least, for someone to jump up and run for the toilet in mid-speech.

Has anyone considered the possibility that maybe they were just bored? I've got a poli sci class in which I write notes like that all the time for the girl who sits next to me. In fact, since I'm usually trying to make her laugh I might even appropriate this exact note.

Surprisingly, I hadn't.
I figured the things were boring, but not that people would pass notes to alleviate the boredom.

Once while in college, a friend took a 'new acquaintance' out for our Thursday night binge. I guess she wasn't interested - said she had to go to the bathroom, and we never saw her again...

You're very likely correct. It's just another way for these folks to take a shot at Bush. With as bad as he is, you'd think they'd have no trouble finding something that actually matters to bag him for.

His penmanship reminds me of picture pages. That's awfully big, bold writing for a pencil.

lots of people do most of their thinking in the Sh!thole.

Here a quote I read on the Batrooms.

"Some come here to sh!t and stink"
"Some come here to sit and think"
"But I come here to scratch my balls and read the BS on the walls"

All of employees love Bathroom breaks, specially if they sit ther for more than 1/2 hour, its the only time/place you get paid for dumping.

You have to be reaching to worry about this one.

It just makes me glad I don't have a camera on me 24/7.

For me personally, it doesn't worry me (I already perceive the guy as a complete idiot. Now Cheney, he worries me!)...the premise of the photo is just funny.

Anyhow, the most intriguing aspect of this image is simply it's very existence in the mainstream media. "W" has been handled with kids gloves since he was governor. The meer fact that this photo was published at all, especially given how it reflects on his visit to the U.N., gives me hope that the media has tired of glorifying this man, and may finally be acknowledging the fact that he is wildly unpopular (Today - 40% disapprove), as is his agenda.

Bush, by and large, is a media creation. Custom-tailored by the GOP spin-meisters to fit into the mold of the Reagan "Cowboy-Conservative." I've got a running theory that Bush provides *so much* fodder for ridicule, presenting himself as such an easy target, that the press, at large, feels bad about attacking him personally. Like they would a child. That wasn't so with Gore, or Kerry...whom I'm sure got the brunt of America's deep-seeded napoleonic complex. (ie: "What? You think y'alls better than me?)

By and large, Clinton took his lumps (and the Conservative media foamed at the mouth about it)...maybe the boy-king is finally getting his comeuppance.

Boy, that's a lot to draw from a photo, in'nit?

wow. Really? If he's been handled with Kid gloves, I'd hate to see the really nasty gloves.

ChadTower · « **Reply #27 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:59:22 pm »

Well, consider what some people would like to see done with him, and you'll probably begin to understand what he means. To some people, nasty is never nasty enough if they dislike the target.
