Lyudmila Putin didn't get the "casual dress" memo. D'oh!
Putin licks his choppers at the sight of Laura. It's no wonder her Secret Service codename is "Catnip".
Actually, it's not. But it might as well be.
Lyudmila jealously eyeballs her, and Putin gets a comradely handshake.
But no! Putin finds himself hopelessly drawn to her. He wants to whisper an endearment,
but is hampered by the Russian language being made up entirely of curse words.
Lyudmila tries to get in the middle and put the kabosh on things.
Chirac's kissing Laura's hand again. Notice he's got that extra "grab" thing going.
Two things are clear here: Dubya and Tony are pals; Laura and Cherie are not.
Dubya has to kiss big forehead lady, while Chirac ponders wife-swapping.
Now Schoeder is kissing her hand. Schroeder? What the hay? Germans aren't hand kissers.
You can see how little practice he has in this maneuver as he appears to be staring at an age spot or something.
That's why nobody talks about "Teutonic lovers".
Heads of State drooling on his wife is beginning to wear thin on President Bush.
Laura gets Dubya squared away. Good girl.
Laura doesn't mind being moved around like furniture so Dubya can arrange a pic. She's a sport.
Silvio leaves the wife behind so he can make his big move for "his" Laura.
Hilarious! I love it.

Posted by: james at June 9, 2004 08:01 AMConsidering Schroeder and Chirac have been locked in a french kiss for over two years now, Bush should have arranged a picture of those two swapping spit.
Posted by: Arty at June 9, 2004 08:21 AMThis one merits a File/Save As...
Nice work.
Posted by: david at June 9, 2004 08:22 AMThat scorching smell is Silvio's fingers on L's shoulder.
She is overdressed, as usual.
Posted by: James at June 9, 2004 10:34 AMBravo! Tim the Tabloidist strikes! Good work, seriously.
Posted by: Greg Williams at June 9, 2004 11:19 AMThank you for making me laugh today. I needed it. You've got a talent for this kind of thing! I hope to see more soon. :)

that was awesome.
Posted by: chad at June 9, 2004 04:45 PM"big forehead lady" is the funniest thing I've heard all day
Posted by: Triesch at June 9, 2004 06:35 PMThanks, y'all.

Thats the title.
Now just add the pictures with but a few changes and you definately have an Enquirer contract.
Posted by: IXLNXS at June 10, 2004 01:19 AMYou guys notice that Bush has set a fashion trend with the men? Putin & Tony have taken to the no-tie look.
