These pictures seem to capture the same kind of sincerity.

Sen. Kerry gave a "Thumbs Up" at President Reagan's service today. This seems to me totally inappropriate. Just who is he giving the Thumbs Up to? Certainly anyone standing in line for 8 hours to pay their respects to the Gipper is not going to vote for Senator Liveshot! Maybe it was to get on the news?
I don't know what to think about that. At least he didn't have a big cheese eating grin on his face while he did it.
Can you be a crass gigolo?
At least he will never be a dead president.
Ah for those of you who couldn't go - the average time in front of Reagan's coffin was a matter of seconds, as you kept walking, not a MINUTE of just standing there feigning religious piety for the cameras.

It shows his total lack of decency.
At least he got ride of that damn pink tie.
ride = rid
(argh!)
I have always maintained that when I die there will be people who come to my funeral just to make sure I'm really dead.
And I've always thought that "these people" will probably giving a thumbs up as they leave the mortuary after viewing my remains.
(And I have prepared a list of WHO 'these people' are, just in case my children are unable to see through the BS)
At least he will never be a dead president.

AMEN to that...
It's a thumb and a wince. Which may mean that his a$$ hurts a little from the thumb's recent removal.
These pictures seem to capture the same kind of sincerity.
We knew what ya meant. Cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdgnieg. See what I mean! LOL

Misleading? You find it appropriate to give a thumbs-up in a limo, LEAVING A FUNERAL? I don't.
And For what it's worth, here is the picture again, with the caption, from the AP photog who took it.

"We shall soldier on. (By the way, did you know I served in Vietnam?) Alas, I couldn't bring myself to salute the late Commander in Chief/President at his casket. That would have made look like someone who takes orders. I'll have you know the only person who gives me orders is TerAYsa."
Mission accomplished
This is one of those "a picture is worth a thousand words" moments. It screams that John F. Kerry is a classless act.
