Bag’s Take-Away:
This scary, floating, transparent head is the first and last reference to George Bush you’ll see this election season, guaranteed - based on a “one off” wire photo capturing Dubya’s reflection in a framed picture at RNC HQ. Of course, no one’s willing to say it out loud (at least on the GOP side), but the man’s a pariah.(photo: Chip Somodevilla/Getty Image caption: Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-OH) (R) is reflected in a framed photograph of former President George W. Bush during a news conference at the Republican National Committee offices on Capitol Hill December 7, 2011 in Washington, DC. Boehner refused to answer questions about former Speaker and current Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich’s leadership while in the House during the 1990s.)
