Gigapixel Inauguration (wow)

I was intrigued by this one: "The Raw Story | Official: UN may prosecute Bush administration, regardless of US action"
Are they really going to go to Paraguay to get him, or is that where the UN will allow him to be exiled. Dick Cheney probably has an undersea island near Abu Dabai.
I wonder when they are going to prosecute Jay Bybee -- your fellow alumn. Can they exile someone to Utah?
That gigapixel inauguration photo is really cool. Home in on Bush/Cheney - Bush looks like he's eating cat litter.
And look at the guys behind Aretha straining to see around her cranial prosthesis.
And when did the Poor Man start blogging again!!??!!???? Excellent! Thanks for the tip!
SLL,
Bybee and that Yoo turd both. They could have a choice: execution or confinement in American Fork.
Phil,
LOL, some flashes of their expressions on the C-Span feed made me look further, and the Gigapan came to the rescue.
Bush Sr. glowered like a caged basilisk during Lowery's benediction, and Cheney's face wore variations of the "I Will Have You Killed, Fool" theme. The Clintons were perhaps the most fascinating, combining horror, hope, contempt, admiration, spoiled meat and ice cream.
Ms. Peasant,
haha, you looked up the "Wank" article, cool.
