1. the Prince was probably afraid that Bush would try and pick his pocket

just like he's picking ours

2. bush will be on the tube soon saying his talks have reduced oil -gas

prices. no matter--he will claim credit and press will go along with it.

4. I am betting that..

their meeting include positions a great deal more intimate than mere "hand-holding..."

I am sure that Shrub will not be able to sit for a week...

5. Just for your cultural awareness

It is quite common in Saudi Arabia for men who are friends to hold hands while walking together. The sexual implications are about the same as two guys shaking hands in this country.

Looks to me like Bush is actually found himself a friend. That this friend is intimately connected with oil is no suprise.

9. If you are speaking to me, I am aware of that fact

And I'll forgive your condescending tone.

Regardless, George Bush looks like an uncomfortable dope in the photo, which is why I hope the gesture will be repeated today.

10. Thinking the same thing - bush has no interest in holding hands with

another man.

6. maybe even get in a little smoochin'?

7. I wonder how Bush's fundie base is going to like seeing

their "messiah" holding hands with an infidel?

That picture is just begging for a caption and some photoshop work.

8. Maybe he'll ask him if he can open his spigot!
