Alternet’s caption, via Lakshmi on The Media Mix:

All boys anti-abortion club
The publicity photo on the White House website of George Bush signing the late-term abortion ban says all we need to know about who is making decisions about women’s bodies. See Ma, no women! Added note of irony: the photographer is a Tina Hager.

These men revolt me. Smug, fat, paternalistic, so bloody safe — never hungry, poor, open-minded, or in danger. Safe, that’s what they seem. So safe. They can put women in danger, and they don’t give a damn because they’re safe. Why is it that they can keep making the world a more dangerous place for nearly everyone, but they stay safe? That should change.
