I saw that in the paper this morning! I was amazed.

They have since apologized, and apparently, if they could do it again, they simply wouldn't run the picture.

The paper bag with red and white stripes, is a "burn bag" for destroying sensitive documents.

I read a statement from that paper to the effect that they don't show pictures of women because viewers will be distracted by their beauty and this detracts from our respect for their abilities and talents and makes us regard them as bimbos.

I gotta tell those guys, whatever else you may say about her, Hillary did not get where she is on account of her looks.

Not bad, I must admit, but I doubt either of us were born then.

The paper in question from post #31 publishes pictures of these women. How is that the modesty of these women is not worthy of the same respect?

eta: further exploration of the photos from their site revealed numerous pictures of women, some dressed similarly to the ones shopped out of the WH photo. Some are mentioned by name, some are even shown with the President. I think the excuse about the modesty of women is bullshit. It is categorically false that they do not publish pictures of women.

For some reason this story really pisses me off.

Yeah, but they paid some defense contractor $10,000 for that one.

That's very funny.
I thought about something like that.
Attributed to a feminist type site/mag/paper, but I was too lazy to do it.

Ok probably been said before BUT,

1) Khaki shirt with collar silver things dude
2) Blue shirt arms crossed dude (no tie - no respect)
3) old bald dude in a suit - but you wouldn't mess would you?
4) Old David Scwimmer - now is it me or is he photoshopped in?
