Well... they're equal opportunity types... didn't they have a hilarious Clinton/Monica float years back?

A float kinda counts as a Giant Puppet, right?

Hilarious headline ... why do I think that's not the AP's writing?

I think they did something similar in the 1940's with FDR.

This one from Reuters has a nice whitewashed caption:

A carnival float shows U.S. President George W. Bush with a machine gun during
the traditional Rose Monday carnival parade in the western German town of
Duesseldorf, February 7, 2005. The Rose Monday parades in Cologne, Mainz
and Duesseldorf are the highlight of the German street carnival season.

You see, that’s a machine gun he’s holding there. That’s not a cross, mocking the fact that Bush is a religious man. It’s just “a machine gun.”

That's pretty funny in all the ways they didn't intend!

So Germany is building a new, burgeoning economy based on floats and large puppets mocking our political leaders?

Even though it is rude, I cannot help but laughing. Pretty creative aren't they?

Hire the Krauts to do the Rose Parade floats.

An employed Kraut is a happy Kraut.

That’s part of the fun of finding something interesting in Yahoo’s News Photo sections – they have no titles so you get to write your own without violating FreeRepublics “original headline” rule.

Great headline; artistry I'd expect from Anne Coulter.

I don't grasp the "Jew killing" part.

Just whatever you do, don't mention the war.
