Four in hand, with a correct dimple from a fine, woven silk tie. That's what it is. :-)

I contacted the McCain campaign, they say it's a secret torture knot he learned from his terrorist contacts.


Is that a bow tie you are wearing, or are you a marrionette? Peter Dragon, "Action"

It's a 4IH without question. No liberal politician worth his salt would dare be caught with something so elitist as a Windsor of any variety.


OMG PRICE DROPS OMG!!!
Great selection of Suits and Sportcoats, Canali, Corneliani, Burberry, and more for the bigger guys out there - sizes 44-46.

Absolutely right. Ever since, my is a double FIH and it gets pretty close to Obama's. The dimple is always there.

I think it's the knot he ties to "spread the wealth around." Since, of course, that would be "good for everybody."

Wanting to be like Obama in any way, shape, or form is an absolutely dreadful prospect imo
