FRIDAY SEERSUCKING. Via The Capitolist, this is certainly the jollyist context in which I've ever seen Ted Stevens, though he looks pretty pissed even here.

alex - the "woman in the center" is diane feinstein. who's about 100 years old, so i threw up a little in my mouth when i read that.
but it *is* hard to figure out who they all are - i can't stop staring at norm coleman's teeth. it's very important to be very careful when getting veneers.
lastly, why the hell is a minnesotan, a californian, an alaskan, and maine-ians wearing seersucker?
Warner forgot his straw boater...oh maybe the only one he could find had a "Nixon" sign on it.
Collins (or is it Snowe?) looks like she came to work wearing a different dress and changed in her office-the black hose and shoes don't quite make a look.
Never seen the Capitolist site before. Quite enlightening. Now that I see what hill staffers do all day, and the comments they make, it all makes sense now.
Seersucker is a wonderful material to weaar in the hot summer and particularly in muggy wash dc.
as for the pink tie, if it is because a woman that you know or love has breast cancer then what is the problem.
As to the seersucker try bean's seersucker shirts for comfort. and a seersucker suit is a joy if you walk to court from your office . there are dems who wear it and a damn good thing.

Nantucket is the only place in the US where you can wear that outfit of Warner's
Given the rhyming possibilities of "Nantucket" and "Seersucker," there's an foundation for an awesome limerick here, but this late on a Friday I don't have the energy for extemporized poetry . . . :(

John Warner = total dandy.

I don't have anything to say about the photo. But I would like to ask why posts on Tapped today look like stanzas from Wordsworth's "Immortality Ode."

Friday Seersucking indeed. It certainly sucks. Seer, or otherwise.

Thanks, that was my fault. Fixed.

anybody else thinkin' Warner bought those shoes to celebrate VJ Day?
and who's the dink on the far right?
Posted by: Jim | June 22, 2007 3:26 PM
Jim, that's former 70s rock star Norm "The Tool" Coleman.

Remember, John Warner was married to Liz Taylor.
The wanking in that picture is overwhelming!

Notice the woman in the center is turned slightly to the side, for the obvious purpose of showing off her breasts. How scandalous!

Stay tuned! Following this pledge break, we'll return with more of the Lawrence Welk Show Reunion.

Oh right. He's giving all of us the finger.

I think maybe Nantucket is the only place in the US where you can wear that outfit of Warner's and not take a beating.
Yeah, that's Bow Tie Ben.

To be fair to Feinstein, she looks very good for a 75 (76?) year old. Obviously not saying she is hot, but people age, man.
I guess she had some work done?

Dear lord. One need only look at this picture to figure out why we're in the mess we are.

Feinstein's a total GILF.
I'm a big fan of the 'sucker, though.
Texas is hot.

I said go to Cox's and get a seersucker suit!

OMG Coleman in saddle shoes!
Snowe and Collins must patronize the same little shop in Maine but wondering how often H1B Feinstein gets to Maine.
No surprise to see B. Nelson and H1B Feinstein among all those righties.

Why is Coleman wearing Denny Hastert's suit? And how does someone that tall end up with pantlegs that are too long for him?
