On election night I was commenting to my friends that they somehow managed to find pictures of Gore and Bush that made them both look presidential, smart, and dignified. As the election has gone on, the pictures have been less and less diginified, but I had to laugh my ass off at the pictures they are using now, especially abc.

Gore looks like a robot with a malfunctioning jaw, and Bush look like someone caught him on the john, after he clearly didn’t eat enough fiber.
