    A1-AAA/IADL would be a wonderful place to re-caption that photo.

    Hey, let’s start with “bread tastes like bread.” It’s at least *true*. We’ll work our way up to “Holy Mother of Fuck I’m the biggest disgrace since the WWII internment camps.”

    Shows you how dumb Bush really is; if either of those women offered *me* something to eat, I’d run screaming.

    “I could choke on this.”

    “We wish you would.”

    After acknowledging the taste of bread, Mr. Bush was called upon to acknowledge the taste of flowers in another obscure Ukrainian tradition. Later, they requested he acknowledge the taste of shoe polish, in yet another previously-unknown Ukrainian tradition.

    “I acknowledge the taste of your bread and as such the great American people recognize your relevance, babushka woman. Now let us realize the dream of a democratic world with your bakery skills. AWAY!”

    Later, Bush demonstrated what 71% of Americans already knew — that he can’t tell Shinola from that other stuff.

    “I’m having an old friend for dinner.”

    Is there a higher-res version of that photo anywhere? I can’t quite make out what’s reflected in the glasses.

    Isn’t that the photo of Tom Clancy that appears on the back of all his books?
