Caption: the Turkey Day Coward Coming Home

[PunkinPi]

Air Force One returning from Baghdad.

W says, "It's just like John Wayne used to do."

btw, how did they get this pic?

[acmavm]

1. Because we are paying a kazillion dollars for another aircraft to follow

this asshole home from his big 2-hour trip to Iraq.

2. Fake

It's probably a fake, or a file photo, or something. Either that or they have a designated takeoff ca,mraman, and this is the first picture of AF1 that looks picture-perfect. *Sigh*...

10. File photo. They have many of them for any occasion.

eom

3. Probably WH stock footage. Such horse shit.

Didn't they fly under cover of darkness, and only stay two hours?

How are they flying into the orange sky?

on edit : recalculating cause I messed up. They're nine hours ahead, not behind. Right?

9 hour difference between Bahgdad and Chicago(CST). It's 12:45pm here and CNN said AF1 was wheels up an hour an a half ago (11:15am CST). That means he flew out at 8:15 pm Bahgdad time. If he flew in under darkness, it would still be dark when he left.

4. good point.

more media pandering.

edit: i hit post too quickly. :)

7. Actually, it was 8:15 PM

I think you did the calculation backwards. If the plane left Baghdad at 11:15 AM CST, given the 9 hour time difference (+9 hours), that would make it 8:15 PM their time. That's about 3 hours after the sun sets this time of year. Either way, what we've all got to do is make sure the sun sets on the Bush Presidency as soon as possible!! :)

8. Caught that already, check my edit.

But it makes my point even more valid. He landed in darkness, at the beginning of the night. It's still dark there now. This picture is obviously not of AF1 leaving Iraq.

And WELCOME TO DU! My Thanksgiving toast to you.

:toast:

5. He appeared from behind a curtain (like the Wizard of Oz!) hahaha

They said he surprised the soldiers by coming out from behind a curtain.....That's fuuunnnyyy!!!

6. "Today on our round

table we have the Rev. Jerry Falwell, Laura Ingram, Howard Feinman, and John Fund to discuss W's recent patiotic and dangerous trip to bagdad." "Alright, let's play hardball."
