The FLY

When photographs
become metaphors


Boned Jello

Now, Three presidential incidents captured on film have become metaphors for a presidency.  Gerald Ford's fall down Air Force One's gangway is  (unfairly)  emblematic of what the media portrayed as a his Stumble-Bumble performance.  The "Killer Rabbit" attack on Jummy is the perfect metaphor for his four-year term in office, especially pulling the US out of the 1980 Olympics - to punish the USSR.   But this!  This is the stuff of legend.  A fly on s__t!  It's so strikingly appropriate that Obama will never, ever escape it. Thank you God.   Click for the slide show. Collect them all.

Jimmy's pulling out of the 1980 Olympics is probably the only good thing he did during his whole presidency. That way he prevented the USSR from having a showcase Olympics like the one the Germans had in 1936.

Chuck, I know that's one way to look at it; but it really was a sterile gesture. IMO.

Remember there was another fly incident about a year ago when he was having a photo op in the WH. There's even video of him bragging about killing it.

Am I the only one that thinks there's something supernaturally creepy about flies being so interested in him?

I'm surprised the MSM allowed it to be seen.

Newest sekrit micro-UAV or is the WH the new Amityville?

I need to zoom in on that photo to see if I recognize the workmanship of the little critter.
