Your search challenge

Prove that you are a better googler than me (not that that’s much of an accomplishment) by finding the famous photo of W in his flight suit walking across the aircraft carrier. Durned if I can find a copy of it anywhere on the Web…

    I didn’t look further.

  3. I found this one.

  4. Never mind whitehouse.gov–check out the animated “hunky sausage strut” at whitehouse.org.

    I also like Tony Auth’s cartoon about Bush’s own military history.

  8. Dave, thou seekest the bulge of success. Will this do:

    Dave Weinberger goes looking for presidential moments of post-Iraq glory. Many photos are called but few are chosen….
