How many men do you see dressed like that everyday? I don't hardly see any. And a bow tie? Is he supposed to be Doctor Who?

Notice the one guy has a flag pin, why is he excluding all the other countries?

I would bet anything if there had been a woman in that pic she wouldn't have been wearing a suit and tie. Wanna know why? Sexism.

They are all wearing clean, white, shirts to make their ties stand out more. They were forced to 'dress up' for our viewing pleasure and pose. You see anyone stand like that on a beach? It is like they want your attention and focus to be on them.

Note the focus on their faces as though what they looked like should be important instead of what they say and do.

And there has to be doors. I bet that guy in the middle has people open the door for him a lot. Benevolent racism at work paid for with your tax dollars. And why is the white guy on the right side of the president? It represents how whites are his right hand men and folks who are not white get relegated to a lower status.

I don't know what others saw in that pic, but if you didn't see what I did there is something wrong with you

for the guy on the right and whoever he brought along with him. The guy on the left probably served at dinner. How nice the guy on the right was willing to be photographed with the other two.

It's 3/5ths of my dream D&D group. (Come on, you know they ride the dice!)

The other 2 are Stephen Colbert and Brian Greene.

I'd die a happy boy to campaign with those guys.
