"Sleek, hairless pecs glistening in the surf"

I've never thought President Bush himself was as homophobic as many of his supporters.

Here's a quote from his speech to the Radio and Television Correspondents dinner last night that supports my theory:

"By the way, I’m not sure whether or not Senator Obama is here — the last I heard he was not coming to the Radio and TV Correspondents dinner — not enough press. People Magazine recently had a photo of the Senator there on the beach in Hawaii, his sleek, hairless pecs glistening in the surf. It shows how biased the press is. Have you ever seen a shot like that of Denny Hastert?"

I would argue that anyone who is willing to joke like that does not have a huge problem with homosexuality. Either way: LOL.

Here is a link to an article that includes a full transcript of Bush's speech: Bush and Rove Let It Loose, For a Bit.
