Two of George W. Bush’s favorite lovers, Andy Card and John Bolten, held a fancy party where everybody got to pay $5 to french the outgoing president. They held the party in Maryland, of course, where the Law still allows those types of things.
Here, courtesy of Beltway Baca, are some CANDID SNAPS of the big event:
Why look, there are veritable dozens of admirers holding up their ghostly hands to worship the new satan, “W.”
Looks like a pretty rocking party, HENNGGH? What with the abandoned drum sets and everybody wearing their coats indoors.
Here are the event’s hosts. Shortly after this photograph was taken, they were eaten by bears.
You know who else was at this party, besides Condi Rice and Karl Rove and Alberto Gonzales? Somebody even more famous, which is to say, Slate’s Chris Beam. He exchanged sassy quips with many Bush administration staffers!
Republicans truly know how to party in large unheated venues, which will be useful in the New Regime when Republicanism, and heating, are outlawed.
Thank you again Mr. Baca for the fotos.

Hey! So THAT’S where Bohemian Grove moved to!
I think I speak for both Wasilla, and all of America also….
GO!! JUST GO!! GO!! AWAY!!!11!!!1!1!!!

Those Greek columns (and Corinthian, no less) mean that George W. Bush fancies himself a Greek god, or at least demigod. Irregardless, I proclaim sacrilege–this is an offense to our Christian Nation!!1!1
WTF, it looks like the same photographer from the Wonkette party. Can’t anyone in Washington use a camera correctly?
These are the people who criticized President Hopey’s pillars in Denver?? Love how they have theirs lashed to the light bar — very classy.
But where is Reason? Are they still fussing it up about those SATANIC BARRY illustrations?
Josh Bolton! Josh Bolton!
John Bolten is the guy who defines a Republic as a system of government where only the citizens who voted for the ruling party have rights.
That and John’s the fellow you send when you really want to tell other countries to fuck off.
One last circle jerk before the historians tear them to shreds. Will the last person to leave please turn on the lights?

W, the god of Failure.
Okay, WTF is that light thing at the top? It looks like he’s about to be abducted by aliens. Not that I’m against that kind of thing, but it seems weird that it’s taking them so long to beam him up.
A dry party in a freezing cold room — and what’s worse is that everyone had to take off their shoes before going in.
One outgoing Treasury employee had already landed a job as a manager at Abercrombie & Fitch.
Oh, wow — so a Regent law degree isn’t completely useless after all.
I wish Patty Smyth had been there to play this for him. It’s been stuck in my head all day, along with visions of Dubya and Cheney with rat tails, Condi with crimped hair, and the whole administration with should pads Molly Ringwald dancing their way out the door.
[re=222156]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Probably giving massages. With his mouth.
That Slate piece is a gold mine: Dana Perino came over to greet some friends. “I’m starting to breathe!” she said.
If only oxygen had started getting to her brain a few years ago.
Odd. You don’t usually see such happy faces on people doing the perp walk.
Shortly after this photograph was taken, they were eaten by bears.
If we’re talking gay bears, then yup…it was definitely a Republican party.
As most republicans (except Michael Steele) won’t venture into Maryland outside of Potomac, Chevy Chase, Bethesda, and Annapolis (only for the boat show), I’m surprised that the hall was that tacky looking. This is what happens when no one loves you anymore, Dubya. Crazy Eyes is gonna ditch your useless arse once you get back to Dallas.
He will walk to the side of the stage smiling and waving, pull a door handle to exit and the door won’t budge (smirk, shrug).
Bush having his partay at an unheated DC space? Still does not make up for the Blair House incident.
Hope he got food poisoning/drunk/impotent from this.
Marble Columns!

Don’t let Newell hear you say that!
It looks like the opening act on a Rosie Cruise.
I like the big cardboard cut-out “W”s in the first pic. Funny if someone had brought “D”-and-piece-of-picket-fence combo to hold up.

That’s the light of Hopeyness streaming in to obliterate all evidence of the last 8 years. If it hits any of the current administration, they evaporate into the pile of dust, vampire-style.
[re=222128]Scarab[/re]: At least they didn’t have to suffer the indignity of the Wonkette-style coat room.
That’s because Maryland is very provincial.

Where’s the “Mission Accomplished” banner? Now’d be a good time to re-hang that old thing…
…but wa’bow andy’s cuzzin in da sane asylum?
[re=222181]Min[/re]: nah – these folks taste bad…
Let the good times roll.
