Okay, okay ... allow us to explain: The chick using President George H.W. Bush's lap as a seat cushion in this photo is NOT a stripper -- she's a "performer."
In fact, the woman, Katie Cameron, and a bunch of fellow actors from a playhouse production of "A Chorus Line" were invited to the Bushes' private vacation home in Maine yesterday to celebrate Barbara's 84th birthday.
George Bush wasn't the only one gettin' some action at Kennebunkport -- because Barbara Bush got serenaded by the one and only Lorenzo Lamas at her 84th birthday party!
Lorenzo's in Maine performing in the Ogunquit Playhouse's "A Chorus Line."
Unlike Georgie, Barbara's lap was left untouched. UPDATE -- Lorenzo Lamas released a statement that reads, "It was a memorable day for me and my brother Steven, along with the cast of a show I'm doing up in Ogunquit, Maine. President Bush and his gracious wife Barbara invited us all up to their compound in Kenebunkport [sic] for a pool party. After swimming we all went inside for some cocktails and impromptu singing. I sang 'Solamente Una Vez' to Mrs. Bush. It was a song that I remember my father loved to sing. The highlight of the day for me was George Sr. Driving his speedboat full throttle to the compound. I swear he almost shook the Secret Service detail following us."
According to these peeps, George W. Bush is a shoe-in for the worst President in history.
Following in the footsteps of an Iraqi reporter, anti-war protesters threw shoes at a prison uniform-clad Bush-alike outside the White House on Wednesday.
The two-term 43rd Prez has 33 days left in office.
Lame duck just got lamer: George Bush isn't letting Barack Obama move into DC ten days early, because his peeps have got to party. The Obamas had asked the President if they could check in early at Blair House, the official guest residence across from the White House, starting on January 5, because the Obama girls are starting school. But Bush's people rejected the request on the grounds that "receptions and gatherings" are being held there and the house won't be available for them until ten days later.
The official Obama camp have said they're cool with it. Right. Laura Bush's spokeswoman says it's a "non-story."
George W. Bush really could be this dumb: Turns out he may actually have seen "W.", and actually liked it.
So says Josh Brolin, the guy who played the Prez in Oliver Stone's flick. He tells the Chicago Sun-Times, "I understand he's seen the picture, and liked it." Let's review: The film is two hours of Bushie boozing, womanizing, choking dramatically on pretzels, and leaving pretty much the fate of the Western world up to Dick Cheney and Karl Rove, chuckling all the while.
Of course, the official line from the WH is the president has had "much more important things to do than comment on this ridiculous movie."
With 216 days left in office, George Bush has finally gone green. Dubya got a parting gift from a group of schoolchildren in Northern Ireland on Monday -- a flowery plant with the words The Mighty Bush written across it.
Is there anyone who doesn't want to give Bush something?!
Dubya -- who still has 249 days in office -- took some time away from Presidentin' to enjoy a bike ride in Israel today ... and flash his middle finger to the international press! He's either desperately trying to stop the bike ... or sending a strong message to all the terrorists. Hard to tell with G-Dub!
With 301 days left in office, George W. Bush posed for pics with the Easter Bunny as part of the annual Easter Egg Roll on the South Lawn of the White House on Monday. Meanwhile, the U.S. death toll in Iraq reached 4000 on Sunday.
With 333 days left in office, George W. Bush toured Africa and stopped to pose for pictures with a group of shirtless Ghanaian musicians on Wednesday. Wherever he goes, people seem to lose the shirts off their backs.
With 370 days and 23 hours left in his reign, George Bush worked on improving Mideast relations -- by warmly greeting Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud on Monday. Shall we dance?! Bush and the King are very close allies! Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
The President is a busy man, what with trying to run the country and all, but Ellen DeGeneres found a way to get him on the phone -- by using his daughter!
Jenna Bush is a guest today on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show," and by the end of the interview, Ellen had talked to the First Daughter, First Lady and the Commander-in-Chief himself, with George admitting he was "glad to talk" to her.
So how did Kiefer Sutherland's DUI back in 2004 go unnoticed? It was quite the bust, with Kiefer blowing a .22 blood alcohol level, nearly three times the legal limit. So how is it that TMZ didn't find the case until today? Two words -- Blair Berk.
Mega-lawyer Berk, who has repped Mel Gibson and scores of other celebs, strateger-ily chose to slide into court on November 2, 2004. Kiefer plead no contest and was sentenced to 5 years probation.
So what makes November 2, 2004 so important? It was the Presidential election! While the media was bitching about Bush, Berk snuck Jack Bauer's case in front of a Sauer judge (as in Michael Sauer, Hiltie's sentencer).
Country songbird Faith Hill was in the Yorkville section of Toronto this weekend, and found this wacky bumper sticker that says "wtf?" -- with a picture of Dumbya on it. Er, Dubya. Faith, from Mississippi, was critical of the disastrous Katrina disaster cleanup.
Apparently, she'd like to stick it to Bushie a little more.
