And I've already pointed out that the article makes no reference of a disembodied head on a pike a la Vlad the Impaler.
"The drawing that drew the most notice showed a man in what appeared to be Middle Eastern-style clothing, holding a rifle. He was also holding a stick with an oversize head of the president on it."
I'm pretty sure that if the kid drew Bush's head impaled on a pike, the article would have mentioned it.
so, by your same line of resoning, it would be safe to say that the sky isn't blue at all, but green minus the yellow.
the efigy was of a disembodied head on a stick. six of one, half a dozen of the other. you're arguing symantics mike.
