 Just kidding Mr. President, but ah it's great to live in this country...hang on a sec somebody's knocking on my door ;)

This is sketchy as heck. Apparently they don't distribute Busch in my neighborhood. Fortunately, it got me to photoshop the label, unfortunately I had no time to find a decent resolution one to start with. Anyway, I still thought it would give the 1 or 2 liberals on this site a chuckle.

Oh, and i had 1 shot as the first attempt ended in an accidental dousing of the president...Rumsfeld was already too drunk to hold the bottle straight.

I'd rather you were smacking the bottle over his head! ;)

The sharpness of the liquid and the mouth differ too much, so it jumps out as photo-trickery. Less obvious, but maybe it looks odd because the light sources seem a different direction for each half of the picture

Great play on words.

This is way funny! I like your humor! The liquid is just slightly off, maybe if it were pouring straight into his mouth it would have a better effect. Nice creativity!

I cracked up on this one. Oh my God, what a great job you did. Don't know how great an ad it makes, but it is definitely very politically charged, and I love it.

I don't know what to think of this. the technical aspects are good, but the I'm not sure about the political and compositional aspects.

Interesting idea. The fluid needs to look like it was actually going into the mouth. Right now it looks like you are poring it off to the side. The lighting seems okay but the overall phot could be more in focus.

6: Funny but there is a clear distinction between the bottle/beer and GW which gives the feel of a compsite rather than a "real" photo

Definitely gets your attention. Product needs to be a bit sharper with less overblown highlights. Funny idea that made me laugh so your on the right track.

The idea cen be interesting, but it is not very well executed.
You should have a better allignment between the "beer" and the mouth, at least.

Interesting approach to this assignment. The stream of beer is just a little too far toward the "model's" chin, which makes it lose the illusion that the liquid is actually pouring into his mouth. Also, the highlight on the bottle label distracts too much from the product name. Still, you get good points for cleverness.
