Bush just spoke from hunting trip "ate beef today".

[spanone]

I found comfort in him eating beef, brains perhaps? I could amost hear the Cattlemens Association cheering all the way over here in Tennessee.

1. And subsequently developed Mad President Disease

eom

[Warpy]

12. oh, yeah?

...and just how are we supposed to tell the difference?

[lostnfound]

15. We can only hope for a complete reversal of his prior thought process nt

[number6]

24. yes , if smirkee man got mad cow ...

how the hell would we know ??? :evilgrin: :shrug:

[mkultra]

2. He can eat my beef too

se subject

[diamond14]

deer get that 'wasting disease'....caused by the same prions

defective prions are proteins, currently causing more than 20 separately-named diseased throughout the animal and human world...

hunters have died from eating these diseased deer...

[RebelOne]

20. Called chronic wasting disease (CWD)

started out West and spreading throughout all the states. Same thing as mad cow disease.

[librechik]

3. did he kill it himself? or did they find it in the road? n/t

[spanone]

4. Roadkill no doubt

[Liberal Veteran]

5. Oh, like we could tell the difference if he gets CJD?

Given that it's major symptom involves a rapid decline in mental function, how would we know if he had it? Would we notice the difference?

[citizen snips]

6. Did he choke?

[spanone]

7. A beef pretzel. Now you're talking terrorism.

[Lisa]

8. let me guess -- he shot someone's cow by accident?

While out quail hunting, that is. And he had to eat the evidence.

[papau]

13. my first thought also!

:-)

[Parrcrow]

9. He probably thinks that...

bacon grows on cows

[Pobeka]

10. Bush is possibly the only living human being would benefit

from a severe case of mad cow disease. Seriously, with a brain that screwed up, a random perturbation of the brain cells could only result in an improvement!

[tom_paine]

11. Yes, the Emperor is acting a duly appointed spokesweasel

for the Cattleman's Association and the Beef Industry.

You think the boy-King gives a shit if thousands fall ill? Just ask the respiratorily compromised Ground Zero rescue workers.

[arcos]

14. Alberto Fujimori in Perú did that during the cholera epidemic...

Fish was infected, and he went on tv and ate fish, saying it was totally safe.

A few days later, the rate of cholera cases went up dramatically and spread to several other countries in the continent.

[plaguepuppy]

16. Bush gives me cholera

Never met a corporate bum (in both senses) he didn't want to kiss.

[prariedogging]

17. and?

so?

[snippy]

18. Maybe Bush still has his official food taster mouse.

Thai mouse to risk life for Bush in last line of bio-chemical defence

A humble mouse is to put its life on a plate for US president George Bush this weekend - acting as his official food taster to thwart any attempt at a bio-chemical assasination.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/animalrights/story/0,11917,1065768,00.html

Even if the brave mouse-warrior against terrorism is now unemployed, Bush has long suffered from Mad Cowboy Disease.

[philosophie_en_rose]

19. So much for safety.

I have no doubt that Bush's beef came from a cow whose body underwent a myriad of lab experiments to make it fit for simian consumption.

However, the real fact is that the beef industry is still tracking the infected cow corpses. Beef is probably as safe as it has always been, but supporting the careless intake of meat at this time is dangerous, ignorant, and smug.

[Deja Q]

21. Oddly enough, so did I!

Maybe he'll eat more of it in response. You know, "bring 'em on!"

I mean, it's all harmless and the beef industry will just crumble if we don't... (gee, given the chance, corporate america would outsource cattle too...)

[ThoughtCriminal]

22. Bet they check it though

100% pure USDA weapons-grade pandering.:eyes:

Remember those flights by high officials after 9/11 that were supposed to show confidence in air travel. Turned out they pulled Sky Marshalls off of higher risk flights to put them on those trips.

[mike_c]

23. a man with nothing to lose....
