The photo of Roosevelt signing the declaration of war is a real hoot - mostly the guys behind and beside him.
The guy on the far left looks like he's cracking peanuts in his hand, and has one stuck in his teeth.
The second guy is afraid that the Senate cafeteria will sell out of the roast beef special if he doesn't hurry.
The third guy is surreptitiously scratching his nether regions.
The fourth guy doesn't get the joke he just heard. So the fifth guy is telling him again "Like I said, a priest and a rabbi go into a bar ...".
And standing just out of the photo on the right is someone who is actually timing Roosevelt's signature. Sure, "Franklin Delano Roosevelt" has a lot of letters, but really, can't you just let him sign at his own pace?
Somehow I thought that the signing of a declaration of war would be a more serious occasion.
And by the way, why does the Big Guy have a stainless steel dog dish on his desk?
Inquiring minds want to know ...
