And appropriate, as well.

FTFA:
"This monument ... will remain a present for the forthcoming generations," said Fatin Abdul-Qadir al-Nasiri, director of a Tikrit orphanage whose children helped fashion the sculpture. "(They) will remember the story of the hero (al-Zeidi) who bid farewell to the U.S. president ... in such a way.

Even aside from the wonderful insult to Bush, I think it's fantastic that the Iraqis have found what will surely be a lasting symbol of independence.
I mean, liberation was one of the justifications for the invasion, right?

Here's a lovely parting gift, Mr. President:

I love that animated gif. Somebody needs to put music behind it. I'm thinking "Cotton Eyed Joe".

Irony?

If my hometown was mostly known for being Saddam's hometown, I'd want something to draw attention away from that fact, too.

Sinister Steve: Irony?

The article says coppery.

HAHAHAHAHA! There's even a 'bush' growing in it ;)

I looked George Bush in the eye, and I was able to get a sense of his sole.

Time heels all wounds.

This would make a nice gift to Iraq:

The Onanist

You forgot the Mission Accomplished banner on the mosque.

Ok I laughed

SherKhan: Time heels all wounds.

I fear this statue may become a victim of sabotage.

Or is it, itself, a sabotage?

Hooray the surge worked!!! They love us!!!!

And people think the Iraqis have no soles.

RoxtarRyan: And people think the Iraqis have no soles.

Also that they are too straight-laced.

Thanks, George. You're fantastic. Really. Enjoy a long, safe, quiet retirement on the dole.

it makes me happy to see the Iraqi people dedicating such a statue to Mr. Bush. Say what you want about the man, but he made a country where an action like this would have meant watching your family be raped and murdered in front of your eyes, to a country where little girls and boys are hanging around a statement of freedom...

Im not a conservative, heck Im Canadian, but I can't stop being proud to know that my country lied to its own people to have Canadian soldiers along side the heroic Americans fighting for freedom of others.

It is saddening to know that he can never run for office of President again.

//Good luck and farewell to you sir.

You got an overall score of 4.5. What really hurt ya was the Russian judge. He gave you a 2.5, cause you're a caunck.

Well, if the shoe fits....

I thought the shiat plant in California was gonna be his monument.

Obdicut: I fear this statue may become a victim of sabotage.

/approve

He added: "It's not a political work,"

Hmm.

What does Saddam think about it............

So its a monument to the fact that they throw like girls?

A big copper thingy on top of some plastery stuff? Be careful visiting this monument! Sounds like an EFP. Using those kids as a human shield is despicable.

BooBoo23: RoxtarRyan: And people think the Iraqis have no soles.

al-Nasiri has proved that he is no loafer.

Are you kidding me? If that guy was represented by Scott Boras he'd get at least $4 million from the Rangers.

FTFA: A sofa-sized sculpture

Is this a standard measurement for statues? How big is the Statue of Liberty in sofa terms? What does that convert to in love seats or ottomans?

fishsticks: FTFA: A sofa-sized sculpture

Is this a standard measurement for statues? How big is the Statue of Liberty in sofa terms? What does that convert to in love seats or ottomans?

I believe it's 35,485 sofas, 243 love seats, and 15 ottomans. I'm not a professional sculptor so I'm not certain.

I expected it to look more like the Memorial for the Paparazzi from Robot Chicken's Cameron Diaz sketch

And you thought base 12 and base 60 was screwed up.

meh.

We've had the George W. Bush Fire Hydrant for years. My dog pays his respects every day.

It's a shoe-in for statue of the year, and probably the sole monument that will ever be built to bush's presidency, even if it is rather tongue in cheek. I hear the unveiling ceremony was a little straight-laced, but that's instep with the current times. Toe the line, bush was a heel, it's patent representation, arch, given the boot, so on and so forth.

/God, I'm getting lazy just abbreviating those last five.

Yeah but how does it relate to whatever those little plastic casings at the end of shoelaces are called?

Aglet you know when I find out.

What the world needs is a George Bush Memorial Wood Shed. Especially if corporal punishment ever comes back into fashion. Fathers will be able to take their sons there and teach them what eight years of George Bush was like.

Until then, should you ever need to eat your shoes Charlie Chaplin in the "Gold Rush" style, here is something to put on the menu:

Semelles de cuir de porc à la "Curée d'or"

Pommes de terre "shoe lace"



Trust me. Everything tastes better if you give it a French name.
