I did, however, whilst researching this topic — as, of course, I must do whenever someone sends me a tip, er, uh, bit of information — run across this great article, originally written by Maureen Dowd (April 25, 2004), on the Cyn City blog. And since I also liked the picture that went along with Cyn City’s “Top Down” post, I decided to mention Cyn City here. (Find the post yourself, I’m not linking stuff like that to my blog! There may be children here, dontchaknow — at least judging by some of the comments posted to my article “Embarrassment”.) The writing at Cyn City — I just love to say that — is quite good and the Cyn City author appears to share my interest in things political as well as photographic, so I’ll probably start reading it regularly.

But I’m not even going to mention the photo albums.

What she doesn’t understand is that the Bush Administration doesn’t do stuff like that. Or do they?
