Hail Satan!

A few weeks ago, a photo was published online. It was Laura Bush showing what looked to be the devil sign with her hand. She had her index finger and her pinky raised. The origin of that is dubious, and irrelevant (it doesn't go back very far, and supposedly originated with '80s heavy metal music). Of course, it became an internet joke about the Bushes worshipping satan. Which is funny. Maybe. I'm sure there are plenty of Illuminati conspiracy theorists out there flipping out over the whole thing.

Supposedly, it's also the symbol for the University of Texas Longhorns. The Longhorns marching band played the inauguration/coronation yesterday, and GW himself saluted satan, I mean the Longhorns. Is there a double meaning? Did Bush slip up? Is it true that Bush is just a puppet in a centuries-old worldwide conspiracy to rule the world? Will the Bush sisters become the next Nicky and Paris Hilton? Tune in next time, because I probably won't have the answers.
