I did not have sex with that lobbyist!

Bush Opposes Release of Photos With Abramoff
President Bush today dismissed the significance of photographs showing him with disgraced Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff and indicated that the White House would continue to oppose releasing the photos, which he said are irrelevant to a federal investigation.

"I've had my picture taken with him, evidently," Bush said in response to a question at a White House news conference. "I've had my picture taken with a lot of people. Having my picture taken with someone doesn't mean that I'm a friend with him or know him very well." He said that "it's part of the job of the president to shake hands with people and smile."
Imagine if Clinton had tried a similar dodge.

"I've had my picture take with Monica, evidently. It's part of my job as president to pleasure my constituents!"

There is no sin a Rethug can commit that Wingnuttia will not remit.
