I was surprised to see these photos floating around news desktops. Well, I was not surprised really because this is the PRESIDENT!!!
How stupid it is to have the U.S. National Flag on a DOORMATE is one thing, and how stupid it is to forget that this President is stupid enough to step on his flag.
Maybe it is a conspiracy and the organizer of the event was Al Qaeda member?! Or Hamas? No, these guys are weak. Ahhhhhhhhha, must be a Hezbollah member?!
The photos are not photoshoped (although I'm 99.9 percent sure that, that is what is going to be claimed); they are taken from Reuters sideshow (sorry, could not figure out how to grab the link to javascript slides) and Yahoo.
As you can see, Dubbya is standing with Mrs. America on the doormat with an image of the U.S. Flag (learn more about the flag) to honor those who died on 9/11. It just shows that the guys around Bush responsible to takecare of the Presidential events are not less "smart" than their boss!
I just can't understand how did Americans elect this man. He is either blind or stupid, or both!!!

Dear Mr. President,
This morning I opened up my favorite blog eminating out of the Mideast and was SHOCKED to find a Reuter’s picture posted of you standing on a doormat with our flag on it. I am very concerned that this might be used as a means to make you look stupid(er)to the peoples in this area of the world since I know you are hard at work winning their hearts and minds. The very next chance you get I urge you to make sure your secretary checks your email http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/. You will find I forwarded to you the Rules and Regulations Regarding the Flag

It does not mention doormats specifically but it does say this,
” The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard.” So I’m really hoping you’re off the hook on this one. I know it is a VERY hard job being the president of the United States and that sometimes you make “missteps” so I understand that yesterday your mind was on other things, it being 911 and all, maybe you just weren’t thinking straight. After all, I’m sure you had a very busy schedule with all those darn photo ops scheduled by your handlers. I hope you got a good night’s sleep last night and got to bed at your usual time of 9:00 after your busy day.
I understand you have an ipod and that you like music. Here’s a link to some of my favorite music I hope you enjoy. It has 70 songs for your listening pleasure http://www.neilyoung.com/lwwtoday/lwwsongspage.html (I know it’s a link to the “Living With War” site but the songs are not by Neil Young, that pesky artist that is singing AWFUL things about you. And besides that, we all know that when you’re spreading peace and democracy, war IS the best tool available)
And if you can spare seven minutes of your time, here’s my favorite music video by some of the biggest hiphop artists out there
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eb9KuZ5i5LA I give you this link because I want to make sure you keep up with what they are saying about you.
Thank you for your valuable time Mr. President in reading my letter to you. Have a GREAT DAY!!
The above letter was FULLY sarcastic.
Dear Mr. President,
I am really sorry to bother you again but I forgot something really important. I know you are working hard on getting that amendment to our Constitution passed, The Flag Desecration amendment
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag-burning_amendment
Hope you remember which one I’m referring to. You know, that one that you pull out all the time when your critics are in full swing and you want to make sure the public knows you’re hard at work keeping America safe by waving the flag? Here’s another good article to remind you
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/06/26/AR2006062601179.html
I mean, I realize that the last time Congress tried to do something about this they passed the Flag Protection Act and that it was overturned which is really too bad considering the flag is used for such good purposes, you know, inspiring allegiance to our government at ALL times and the one waved proudly by our military wherever they go spreading democracy. It was really disappointing that it got turned over on First Amendment grounds but if you can just get it passed then all those people claiming First Amendment rights will be shut up forever. Wouldn’t that just be the icing on the cake after all the other laws you have so cleverly gotten around all because you are so hard at work making our country even greater than it already is? And you know, I’m so glad that when all those people stand up and pledge allegiance they are pledging allegiance to you instead of our Constitution which so many people have tried to use against you saying you have walked all over it. But the flag, that’s quite another matter, it would be downright embarrassing to see our President standing on the flag, but since it was a doormat, as I said in my last note, I think you’re ok on this one.
Anyways, I think you need to call up Tony Snow real quick so you get the right message out there. You know, something like the camera lights were so bright you didn’t notice what you were standing on. You might even want to say they kept telling you to move left, move right and someone snuck that carpet in there who didn’t realize it was kind of tacky. He might have a problem considering this law you’re trying so hard to get passed but I am SURE he will come up with an excellent explanation exonerating you from all wrong-doing.
Hope you have the chance to get back to the ranch in Crawford real soon and clear some more BUSH off that little vacation spot of yours. I like chopping down BUSH too!! :) It’s really a good way to clear your thoughts and make room for more pleasant ones. Have a WONDERFUL day Mr. President.
Really amazing, anyway I don’t think he still care about anything except Mr bin laden ! Its his only chance to prove that he was right, but he better find another stand in the future.
Well hopefully his little pooch wont be pooping on the doormat to add insult to injury – definately stupid, really stupid
