45. The boy in the second photo
Has to have help to sit up. Look at the hand holding the strap around his torso, and both the boys look like they may have brain injuries. And there isn't an iota of remorse, sadness, regret or shame in Bush's face. He looks like he's at some cocktail party. It makes me think about how my face felt like it was frozen in shock when I saw the injuries of soldiers in the Great Lakes Naval Hospital during Vietnam. I could not have smiled with such nonchalant indifference! He is talking down to them and I'm sure he's telling them their sacrifice is for a just cause. My stomach is twisted in rage and revulsion towards this man using these boys as a photo op.
