PHOTOS: "Hurricane? What hurricane?" Happy, happy, happy!
Edited on Mon Aug-29-05 03:37 PM by Bluebear

U.S. President George W. Bush smiles during a town hall-style meeting at a retirement community where he talked about Medicare prescription-drug benefits for senior citizens in El Mirage, Arizona August 29, 2005. Bush on Monday urged skeptical senior citizens to sign up for a new Medicare prescription drug benefit program, touting a choice of plans with monthly premiums as low as $20. REUTERS/Jeff Mitchell


"you may touch Me but please avert My eyes."


Feeling His oats as He is introduced to the great unwashed.


"Heh heh heh! Heh heh heh!"

It is sunburn, or have the mystery bruises returned?

"The skin's vascular systems are damaged.... Abnormally enlarged capillary groups, with blue and red spider-like capillaries, appear primarily on the upper body. Unexplained bruising, redness of the skin especially on the face, fluid retention under the eyes, and a "whiskey nose" can develop." A qoute taken from this web site: http://www.egetgoing.com/drug_rehab/alcohol.asp

That is a description of what happens to the skin, one of the body's largest organs during end stage alcoholism.

I used to say he was a dry drunk. IMO, he's not dry now, if he ever was.

edited to add a very important IMO qualifier.

54. My mistake
I didn't add "IMO" in that post. I did in my other one. I'll go back and add it as it is a necessary qualifier.

I don't care for the way you called me on it, though. How about next time you ask me if that's my opinion rather than comparing me to a sociopath?

Remember, we're on the same team.

45. It's what happens when you stop your bike
with your face- repeatedly.

It's also a good poster for why people should wear helmets when riding bikes. A small bike accident, even one wiping out a cop, can do permanent facial and brain damage. Worse, it can aggravate preexisting conditions.

with the local coverage. I'll bet the national coverage will be "uplifting" while the local coverage will reflect a growing anger.

Who cares about them anyway? He's still pulling down way more than 400K a year, flying on our tax dollars, staying at expensive hotels on our tax dollars, getting his electricity/utilities/ EATING ALL HIS FOOD on our tax dollars....

Our Georgie is an active alcoholic, IMO. Ergo, no balanced life, just end stage alcoholism. And, Dick Cheney's puppeteer hand up his butt.

Wow... thinking about it, with the addition of that detail, this pic becomes the perfect iconographic image of this detached elitist presidency, and it's many willing victims...
How could America have gotten so stupid, and stayed that way for so long???
And how much longer can this madness continue?



Hey, here's a heartening tidbit: Last I looked, Bush was down in a Business Week poll--

76% rate him Poor!

56. But antidepressants don't cause the kind of facial
redness and bruising we've seen. Well, mostly they don't. Antidepressants are weird in that they can cause just about any symptom and it's opposite so I suppose it's possible that could be the reason.
