Talking about politicians - have you seen photos of Mrs. Angela Merkel neckline? Here are links: http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/9230/45643090bi6.jpg and http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/223/35041845nz8.jpg
Kinda hurting for a post today? (Lots of recycled content this time around...)
OMG Mrs. Angela Merkel shes totaly hot!!!!!!! booooyaaahh!!!
she's quite far away from being hot, i daresay..
That picture of George Bush as a Storm trooper "Starts Wars" is a classic Banksy piece of street graffiti.
that is not a banksy will...
The Fidel's very rare custom wagon GAZ-14 limo looks like a funeral car a lot, IMHO :)
I like Castro´s men in black look
Who is the nice girl that plays the bunny at the parliament?
This one ---> http://lh6.ggpht.com/abramsv/SAVYaw2ponI/AAAAAAAAOe0/JwLoc9UKmys/s1600-h/00cw03e6.jpg

keep it up
cheers!!!!
:)
Some very funny stuff! (though I'm sure at least a few of them are photoshoped).
My favorites would have to be the UN one and Castro with the shades ;)
Prohibition was a misguided move? I like alcohol as most of us do, but you need to know your history.
Prohibition was lead by women- because men had control of EVERYTHING in their lives. The men could go to the bars, drain all of the familial resources, then come home and beat their wives. THAT was the main reason behind prohibition. Paired with the "morality movement", there were a lot of "good" reasons behind the movement.
Because women finally have most of their rights, prohibition is not so much an issue.
Do your research.
Oh my god!! MERKEL HAS BREASTS!!! Nevermind she is a wicked awesome powerful woman politician, let's just focus on her neckline!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is so much more important!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I dunno. Never having met any of them, I think I would find the majority of world leaders today either headache-inducing or just damned unnerving.
And so, Mr. Sarkozy, if you read this I'll stand you to a beer.
