1. Loooong...

night of drinking....perhaps, all day....then under the flourescent lights....Hello!!!!

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. That's the exact posture of my drunk uncles

And no shit, but that was, literally, the first thought that came into my mind - one of my drunk uncles is telling me "how it really is" in an alcohol induced hallucinatory paranoid session.

[Boomer]

3. Looks like liver failure to me

I remember that particular skin complexion -- a friend of mine had it before she was hospitalized for liver failure due to alcoholism. She managed to survive, but the doctors told her that another drink could kill her. Scared her sober (over 15 years now).

[njdemocrat106]

34. If Bush indeed has liver failure...

the American people will never be told. He could go in for liver transplant surgery, and we still wouldn't be told. Rove would make sure of it.

[Skittles]

42. it killed my brother

he had a yellow tint before he died but refused to see a doctor

[Eurobabe]

44. could be liver failure due to alcohol and medications

for god only knows what conditions that they keep secret from us? Maybe Cheney and Bu$h will just save themselves the agonies and do a Thelma and Louise? Quick, somebody Photoshop that??

[Cha]

4. This shot is a strong contender..

[MisterP]

5. he looked like Divine yesterday in Antonio

I was freaking

[Captain Hilts]

9. I just never thought I'd see Bush compared to Divine. Time to go to bed..

it's not going to get any better than that tonight for me.

[MisterP]

14. it was the mouth!

deliberately garishly made-up, pursed into a little berry on a little line!

[fiveleafclover]

20. I never thought I'd see a username

like MookieWilson attached to a Red Sox avatar. Might be time for bed for me as well.

[Captain Hilts]

45. I switched when the Mets fell out of the playoffs.

What do the Sox and Mets have in common?

They HATE the Yankees!

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

21. Lol.

[spacelady]

6. Pasty!! n/t

[HughMoran]

7. That looks like it is from the same day..

Same shirt, same room, same bunch of guys behind him

[kanrok]

19. I'm an asshole!!!

[NervousRex]

24. Shit...

That's a major hangover pic......looks like he puked a few minutes prior.
pasty with bags under the eyes.

[Google_Bomb]

30. Not to worry that's just his daily know nothing blank stare.

[Skittles]

43. he looks even more ridiculous when he is forced to pretend he cares

ya know?

[Google_Bomb]

48. yeah that's true n/t

[OrlandoGator]

32. Gotta love the $5000 plasma screens on the walls.

Your tax dollars at work.

[jmowreader]

46. They're good for dog & pony shows

I'd rather spend the $10,000 on two plasma screens than on a bomb.

[Alamom]

8. Four years and eight months ago.....

I have never seen anyone age so much in less than 5 years.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

10. The word out is that he was tired from being woken up with

updates throughout the night. Hmmm. This looks like a hangover to me.

[cynatnite]

11. Those are some heavy bags under those eyes he's carrying n/t

[notadmblnd]

12. you think maybe he has a whole closet full of those blue checked shirts?

seems like he wears the same one all the time. You can tell when he's really working hard though... cause he rolls up his sleeves.:crazy:

[opihimoimoi]

33. Hitler was only 54 but wow He aged to look 70 in '45

Of course, we find out later(DOCTORS RECORDS CAME TO LIGHT RECENTLY) he was high on meth and other drugs...besides being afflicted with syphilis.

Is our boy high on sumthin?

Hiding sumthin?

Like Hitler did 70 or so years ago ...until the asshole died taking 20 German lives and 35 milliuon others too....???

[WhoseMarie]

38. I noticed the shirts too.....

Shame he can't button them. Someone needs to dress him. (You saw the pic of him in New Orleans w/his shirt buttoned wrong???)

[Laura PourMeADrink]

13. HA HA -- I just got your user name - LOVE IT !

[HughMoran]

18. Oh, I love yours too!

I wish Laura *would* pack her bags. That would be great :woohoo:

[dave123williams]

15. I dunno; he's always looked like shit to me.

[merci_me]

16. Sure doesn't look like someone who

just got back to the office after a five week vacation, doing all that outdoorsy stuff.

Looks like someone who was holed up in a dark room with his drug of choice.

[FreedomAngel82]

26. Correction

It was a "working" vacation. :eyes: Did any other president ever call their vacation a "working" vacation?

[Lex]

17. Captain Hangover. nt

[FightingIrish]

22. He really looks beat up and all he fell off os was the wagon.

[punpirate]

23. I dunno... it's sort of a toss-up between this and the ones...

... after he fell off his bike and it looked like Laura ran a cheese grater down the center of his face.... :)

[Doctor_J]

25. Almost two weeks without a vacation

the man's been working for several days now. Give him a break.

[longship]

27. Gin Blossom

Ooops! Maybe that should be bourbon blossom.

[Maru Kitteh]

28. I have the feeling it's only going to get worse for the boy

damn shame.

[yellowcanine]

29. The dude behind him on the left looks as if he is thinking, "What a crock

of shit this guy is!"

[Historic NY]

31. Jim Beam can make you look like crap...............n/t

[gauguin57]

35. Well, someone must have accidentally destroyed the portrait in the attic!

George W. "Dorian Gray" Bush is showing his true colors. His age, vice and evil are finally showing on his countenance!

[Hardrada]

36. Now Reagan always had someone to get his hair right

and make him look presentable even when he was falling over into the oatmeal. What's the problem with Bush's people?? Or is he trying to look as haggard as FDR at Yalta??

[beltanefauve]

37. Bear in mind

that the camera tends to add twenty pounds. He's looking hungover, liver-damaged, gin-blossomed, and THIN.

Something tells me he's not going to make it through the term.
I can hope, right?

[WhoseMarie]

39. Some noted psychic have agreed with that

I don't have the links or names, but I did read that a couple of noted psychics predicted that Bush wouldn't make it thru his second term - now I had personally always hoped for massive impeachment, orange jumpsuits and ankle/wrist jewelry as his 'retirement attire'.

[SpiralHawk]

41. I have just cast the Mighty Mighty Oracle Beans

And can thus pronounce this Ultimate Infallible Truth: Hugh Moran is the funniest DU screen name in the last 17 1/2 days.

[Jane Austin]

49. Wasn't his downfall going to be a blonde-haired woman?

Mary Landreu? :)

[6th Borough]

40. He's morphing into his pappy in real-time. Crazy.

It's as if he saved up 25 years worth of aging to spend in a couple weeks...and it seems total, from his chest to eyes, hair, torso...


Oh well, gotta grow up eventually.

[deutsey]

47. Prezidentialing, y'see, is hard werk. Yessiree. Hard werk.
