    I'm pretty sure Rumsfeld also made sure all the bullets came in a cornflower blue.

    It's quite telling that the method the Bush administration uses to interpret the bible is exactly the same one they use to interpret laws, acts and treaties. They take a sentence or passage that they think proves their point and ignore everything else that doesn't. They also ignore the historical context of the bible passages.

    "Therefore put on the full armor of God..." I bet the soldiers of god certainly would have appreciated a "full armor" instead of a crappy piece of aluminum foil to protect them.....

    @getbackloretta: No, you have to interpret it like Bush would: if they have God's armor then there is no need for earthly armor.

    I don't see why they just don't show huge erections alongside pictures of their authoritarian fathers on the covers. It would accomplish the same effect.

    Occasionally I start to wonder why I even both subscribing to GQ, then they fucking publish something like this. As for Details, I still have trouble explaining that subscription.

    This offends me as a graphic designer, and as an attorney, and as an American. That's like a holy trifecta of offensiveness that I didn't think anyone would ever achieve. Well done, Bushies, well done.

    I'm not a conspiracy theorist when it comes to food additives - hell, I love chemicals! - but did you know that Donald Rumsfeld was integral to getting aspartame approved by the FDA? This was during his tenure at GD Searle & Co. Enjoy your next Diet Coke!

    I was never one to think that Rumsfield was particularly religious. But um. Uh. Yeah. Putting Bible versions on the cover of intelligence briefings about going to war with a Muslim nation is just all sorts of wrong and stupid.

    No, silly, remember the target audience. This is how Rumsfeld had to design the briefings to get Bush to flip past the cover page.
