He is looking a little the worse for wear >>>

[Stephanie]

What goes on in this WH over the weekends? I wonder if Lincoln's ghost torments Bush until he can't sleep and he's driven to drink? Whatever it is, he looks like hell.




President Bush (news - web sites) speaks with reporters after meeting with Secretary of State Colin Powell (news - web sites), left, Monday, Jan. 10, 2005, in the Oval Office.

1. Holy f*ck

Classic hangover look.

[Stephanie]

3. Yup

Swollen, puffy, droopy, dehydrated, red-faced.

[elehhhhna]

19. needs a fake tan, too.

[wtmusic]

2. He's tipping the jug again

Poor guy. He really should get away from politics.

[AFSCME girl]

4. Maybe his evil ways are finally

catching up with him? :shrug: Prolly not, though!

5. Is that a picture of his soul on the wall behind him?

[tridim]

9. It's either that or a scale model of his shredded liver

[mogster]

17. LOL! n/t

[Algomas]

23. No, actually it is a chopped and charred Iraqi head...

Rummy brought it back as a trophy from his recent morale building visit to the troops.

[sui generis]

6. he really should cut back to just one eight ball per weekend

more than that is really bad for your septum and soft palate, and drinking just doesn't take the edge off like it used to.

:evilgrin:

[LadyRaivan]

7. Somebody's back in the bottle *nm*

[American Tragedy]

8. Harry Truman stated unequivocably that the White House was haunted

If it is, I'm sure that there are more than a couple spirits who have a bone to pick with *.

[Stephanie]

11. I'd love to know more about that

I'm sure Bush is haunted by the ghosts of Jefferson, Lincoln, Roosevelt, and Kennedy. I hope they never let him rest.

[tridim]

12. Someone should let Robert Smigel know about that.

Sounds like perfect TV Funhouse material.

[CrispyQ]

10. He's such an ugly little man.

I can't stand the sight of him. And when he opens that smirking, lying mouth it's even worse.

[drdtroit]

13. The portrait of Dorian Gray. n/t

[whodiedandmadeUSgod]

14. Maybe he is a Packer fan.

A lot of them looking like that today.

[unpossibles]

15. I'm thinking his guilt is getting to him, a la The Telltale Heart

maybe Lincoln's ghost is telling him how to make this country great again: "go to the Theatre!"

[Stephanie]

16. lol!

you bad!

[hatrack]

18. Man! He looks like Death in Saran-Wrap

Bleh!

[alfredo]

20. I think he has had a stroke. Look at how one side of

his face is drooping. It's his left, our right.

It's not as severe is the one Nader had, but it's enough to show.

[midnight armadillo]

21. Look at that!

You're right, his face is droopy - this confirms what we all saw in the debates. I think Nader has Bell's Palsy, which leads to partial paralyzation of the face, although I don't know much about it.

[alfredo]

25. Can alcohol and cocaine abuse add to the

risk of strokes?

[Earth_First]

22. Democracy is hard work...

hard work.
hard work.
this is hard work.

[kiraboo]

24. HE thinks he looks great! n/t

[seabeyond]

26. he is getting old fast

they all get old, but he is really getting old

[boomboom]

27. four years ago

[hippiechick]

28. Yeah, he looks almost the same age as Poppy.

:scared:


:hippie:

[Tomee450]

29. I noticed that too.

Bush did not look well.

[Gabi Hayes]

30. looks good here, though

right at home

who are those other two goobs?

[Gabi Hayes]

31. and, in case you missed it, courtesy of night train......

you know that * sits down when he p**s

[RevolutionaryActs]

32. Our president, the drunken village idiot.

How nice.......

[eek MD]

33. Looks a lil like Montgomery Burns to me.... NT

[WritersBlock]

34. This may be an old link, but I hadn't seen it before....

(And for all I know it may very well have been written by someone here) but I'll post the link on the off chance it isn't and wasn't. :)

"PHOTOS Show George W. Bush Seriously Ill Physically"

http://atlanta.indymedia.org/newswire/display_any/35360

Conclusion: The president apparently uses a wearable defibrillator, a device to stop heart arrhythmia, as seen in photographs. He has had a sudden fainting spell and other symptoms of atrial fibrillation (AF) and has a genetic tendency for it. Some observers have noted neurological and psychological irregularities and other evidence of stroke, which is a possible result of AF. Some of these irregularities could be caused by Wernicke-Korsakoff's, a disease of inveterate alcoholics. The president has an even stronger genetic predisposition for hyperthyroidism and some symptoms of it, including the heartbeat arrhythmia. Only his doctors know for sure.
