Department of Bad Photo Ops

Whoever set up the President of the United States to look like he has been demoted to working from a cubicle in a phone bank should not have a long career in public relations:

That’s from an appearance Friday in Freehold, NJ, and I seriously had to double-check that these were not satirical photos from The Onion or something. We even got the “Bush tries to feed the cube-dwellers” photo:

Oh, well. It can always be worse:

Meanwhile, Barack Obama becomes one with the Force:

  1. Imagine that last picture in the Onion, with the caption, “Bush Considers Cubicle Walls for the Mexican Border.”

  2. These photo ops are always ridiculous, intended to impress upon voters that the candidate is a regular guy. Thing is, if GWB’s last name wasn’t Bush, he’d probably be working in a cubicle somewhere.
