Was there nobody around to fix Henry's jacket for the album photo?

NotJenna planned on re-enacting
a scene from "Antigone".
First, a member of the Bush family would have to get killed in combat. Na. Ga. Happen.

Their K-Mart handler had to run to the outhouse for a moment.
Worst wedding attire ever!
Posted by: Lesley | May 11, 2008 at 03:48 PM
Uh oh, Daddy-in-law ain't gonna like that Sonny-in-law is taller. Oops. Gonna have to either shoot the photographer or get some PhotoShopping done pronto.

It looks like the flower shrubs are attacking no-Jenna's head. And her shoulders are very, very odd. And Pickles looks pickled.

I still think an electric chair would more appropriately honor Daddy's gubernatorial service, if they must have an implement of execution on the altar at their wedding.

Buckeye, she's wearing a floral wreath on her haid.
Posted by: watertiger | May 11, 2008 at 04:06 PM
So did Condi catch the bouquet?

Posted by: watertiger | May 11, 2008 at 04:06 PM
No, I don't think so, unless you're being snarky. I think the photog placed her wrong, Pickles also looks like she's got flowers growing out of her haid.
Posted by: Buckeye, Dealer of Rare Coins | May 11, 2008 at 04:20 PM
Is it just me, or does it look like these photos are all taken in a fucking graveyard?
Posted by: snabby | May 11, 2008 at 05:06 PM
Looks like the same funereal arrangement is behind duhbew as Notjenna; who is apparently reprising John Hurt's star turn in "Alien."
And that's a sacrificial altar that would make Tezcatlipoca proud.
Posted by: shpx.ohfu | May 11, 2008 at 05:06 PM
Buckeye, you can see it in the enlarged photo.
she's definitely wearing a wreath on her head.

Laura's not participating in the group hug?
Someone forgot to program the "warmth" module.
Posted by: SteveNS | May 11, 2008 at 05:41 PM
I think notJenna looks very pretty. This is actually a good photo of the family.
Too bad Dad is an idiot.
Posted by: lowly grunt | May 11, 2008 at 05:44 PM
My goodness. Jenna is wearing a wedding tablecloth!
Posted by: madamab | May 11, 2008 at 05:59 PM
What is up with not-Jenna's bizarre posture in both pics? Either she's got a serious beef to pic with the photographer ("Cock your elbow out a little more awkwardly this way, sweetheart -- that's it!") or the collar of her dress is way too loose and she has to keep her shoulders thrown back like she's posing for a bodybuilder competition (oddly, Foghorn Leghorn came to mind as well) to avoid having a wardrobe malfunction.
Either way, oh yeah - she's PISSED at Jenna. Jenna gets the cute little, much more comfy looking lace dress and gets to shrug her shoulders in little kittenish poses, while not-Jenna gets flower wreaths and has to impersonate statuary.
Posted by: jezebel | May 11, 2008 at 07:00 PM
At least Laura is consistent with the awkward sleeve length.
Posted by: TeddySanFran | May 11, 2008 at 08:18 PM
Am I the only one who thinks Laura's dress looks like a robe or a housecoat?
"NotJenna, hon', go get Momma some medicine. And some Newports, too."
Posted by: stryx | May 11, 2008 at 08:28 PM
WTF is that ugly thing on the left?
Posted by: Caveat | May 11, 2008 at 08:48 PM
Not Jenna sooo wants a boob job. If she flexes any harder she's gonna poke somebody.
Posted by: baba durag | May 11, 2008 at 08:53 PM
Lieberman had just checked Henry's bearings before the photo was taken, and he said they were fine.
Posted by: Karin | May 11, 2008 at 09:17 PM
looks like Henry has quite shapely hips. "Ah likes that in a son-in-law, heh, heh, heh"
Posted by: boom | May 11, 2008 at 09:26 PM
Did some one say some thing about Caligula?
Posted by: Capt. Bat Bitter Hussein Guano | May 11, 2008 at 10:16 PM
Henry's jacket by Walmart. Laura's dress by Acme drapery.

What is this heresy? Do mine eyes deceive me? Could it be...? Georgie sans flag pin?!?!? A banner day, indeed!

Speaking of which where is Jocasta Bush?
Didn't they cart the BattleAx and Poppy out to the event?

jenna is looking for that legalized sex.

WT, Not Jen is hot. Yer just jealous. *G*
Posted by: larue | May 12, 2008 at 03:53 AM
Holy Crap! They really nailed the Redneck Wedding look.
Posted by: Chum | May 12, 2008 at 04:52 AM
Well, there's the famed limestone cross. How weird is that? That's like the last thing I'd want my dad to spend money on for my wedding (not that my dad spent any money on my wedding, but it's the thought that counts).
And Not-jenna's posture is just strange. her dress is really strange.
Pickles is wearing shiny fabric - no one over 50 should wear satin.
George's face is red - wonder how many drinks he's had?

Re: Not Jenna's posture. Remember class pictures? Remember how the photographer would have you get into this odd position so the photo would come out just right. And then the photographer would walk away and just as you could not hold the position any longer but relaxed into some even more awkward looking meta-stable position, the photographer would come back and shoot your picture? And then your parents would wonder "what's up with that bizarre smile? I guess teens aren't allowed according to social pressure to smile properly? kids these days ..."
I suspect that GW Bush hired that photographer to do the wedding pictures.
But yep -- my Men's Wearhouse quasi-ready-to-wear tux fit better than the groom's suit is fitting. Heck, it's only recently that GW Bush found himself a decent tailor. When Richard Nixon's suits hunched up when he raised his hands, it was understandable -- Nixon was a middle-class dude like the rest of us, so what would he know from a bespoke suit? But GW Bush has the resources to get himself a suit that fits him as opposed to having less than $100 budgeted to alterations from something off the rack. And only now he's realized that?
And his son-in-law seems to fit right into the family. (would make a Hagar joke here, but I like my Hagar dress pants ... but what do I know? I'm just a middle-class dude ...)

I still think that they're all trying to achieve the famed "Country Bumpkin" look &mdash and succeeding beyond their wildest expectations.
Posted by: thepoliticalcat | May 12, 2008 at 12:13 PM
really, Notjenna is wearing the seriously sheer shower curtain I saw at Target last weekend, with the "golden" drapery cord I saw and Bed, Bath and Beyond the same day.
Who knew...
Posted by: leslie | May 12, 2008 at 01:35 PM
well, what CAN you do with your arm? and probably told to get closer. and had plenty of room.
but shit. is there a texas law against bangs or somethin?
Posted by: pansypoo | May 12, 2008 at 01:48 PM
That's one twisted and misshapen wedding partay.
Posted by: TF-MA | May 12, 2008 at 02:21 PM
Chimpy described that as a "giant" cross. He definitely did a Spinal Tap screw-up on the dimensions.
Posted by: P O'Neill | May 12, 2008 at 02:54 PM
I think his jacket looks perfect FOR HIM.
Loser.
That cross DOES look giant next to slumpy and co.
Here's why she REALLY didn't get married at the former White House.
Posted by: voxy | May 12, 2008 at 08:16 PM
Now, now -- I'm sure they all looked better in the "After" picture.
Posted by: Veritas78 | May 12, 2008 at 08:55 PM
Perhaps we should give her a break. It's not her fault that she's the daughter of chimpy and it's her special day
Posted by: Polaris | May 12, 2008 at 09:34 PM
