You'll See It Whether You Want To Or Not

Here's a picture of George Bush appearing in his long-running one man show "Angry Drunk Dad":

I'm afraid you're mistaken, Jonathan. This is a shot from G-Dub's surprise appearance at the Wu-Tang concert here in Philly last month.

LOL! OT: what is it w/those cheesy repeating patterns all the time?

er...

Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister said: 'Simplify and repeat. Simplify and repeat.' He knew what worked as a propaganda and indoctrination strategy

Just saying....

Actually, it's one of those Magic Eye Stereograms, but unfortunately they keep flubbing it up by having Bush standing in front of it, flapping his arms. So you can see it more cleanly, I posted a non-Bush version of it here:

He looks more confused than angry. Also, he looks like he's trying to grab a magical, invisible barrel that only he can see, while tensing his shoulders because he's afraid that a family of angry lemurs might be in said barrel.

I've seen him do that grabbing a barrel that no one else can see gesture on many occasions, and don't know what else to call it. Any ideas?

Actually, he looks sort of constipated. Maybe he's trying to explain the size of his bowel movement, were it to be unrestricted by having so many other things crammed up there.

Oh, Jon, it's much worse than Angry Drunk Dad. It's Angry Dry-Drunk Dad. All the anger, none of the possibility that the booze will put him in a good mood.

Goebbels, the Nazi propaganda minister said: 'Simplify and repeat. Simplify and repeat.'

Er, no. He actually said:

"Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat.
Simplify and repeat."
etc

The message is subliminable. It says "Who are you going to believe, me, or your lyin' eyes?"
