No class, but typical.

I don't seem to recall the same outrage.

Oh look, it's the old "Bush kinda did it too" defense.


Not quite as good as the Chewbacca defense.

Did you lose your mind when Bush did it?

You mean Bush did a half assed salute with a Starbucks cup?

Good Lord. Can you not see the image posted above with Bush's half-assed dog salute?

Are you trying to differentiate between a starbucks salute and a dog-holding salute?

So a half assed salute with a Starbucks cup is worse than a half assed salute carrying a dog in your arms. Got it.

There's no great tradition behind a Presidential salute. Presidents before Reagan didn't do it at all. LINK

Dog in left hand, saluting with right hand.

I'm not seeing the problem.

a want..... This is Chewbacca, Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk, but Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now, think about that. That does not make sense! Why would a Wookiee - an eight foot tall Wookiee - want to live on Endor with a bunch of two foot tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! What does that have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! None of this makes sense. If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

what should Bush have done? Held the dog on the leash while saluting? It would be the same reaction. At least he looks like he's making eye contact. Obama is trying to evade them almost.
