Bush and the French Flag

Ro just wrote in Email asking if I dreamed that up about President Bush leaning casually on the French flag. In a word, "No."

I first saw it on Atrios, but the AP Reuters photo can be found here.

Admittedly, this might be the kind of gaffe I'd make because I'm not big on symbolism for symbolism's sake. But for a man who practically insists he wears American flag underwear cause he's so patriotic, using the French flag for a place to set his hands seem a tad odd.
