Bush looks like hell today....

[grasswire]

Did you see him with Vincente Fox?

Bleary
Drugged-looking eyes
Puffy face
Holding one side of his face kind of stiff
Some kind of lisp to his speech as if his tongue is sore
Exhausted looking
Stumbling over words

He just looks like hell. When I see some pictures, I'll post them.

[Hoosier Democrat]

1. He does look bad

Maybe he and Rush did an all-nighter at a Mexican pharmacy????

[PaDUer]

36. LOLOL

You can bet he's had a few drinks after what came out yesterday..Desperate men do desperate things..I have a feeling there's lots more coming, and MANY more people to follow.

[Stevendsmith]

2. Maybe he should break out the flight suit and the crotch sock

It worked before.

[nostamj]

3. find a picture where he doesn't look like hell...

that would be something! (good luck though)

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

4. But Vicente looks great, doesn't he...

...and have you noticed how many times he has slipped the phrase "Borderless North America" into the conversation over the last few weeks and hasn't been challenged by Bush once?

"We will go for more"...looks like Fox is keeping his promise.

[buycitgo]

7. he looks like a high class gigolo

or the Mexican Marlboro man

[Enraged_Ape]

5. Doesn't he always look that way?

He is the most unphotogenic "leader" in world history. Even Yassir Arafat looks like a Greek statue compared to this goon.

[buycitgo]

6. hey! you beat me to the punch on that

but you described him much more precisely than I was going to.

he did look bad

and didn't you love his answer to the ONeill/Iraq question?

he just started babbling, as he did when he tried to do the fool me once bit.

he even started trying to impress everyone with the name of specific ops in Iraq (Operation Badger?), but got confused in the middle, and stumbled on to some other train.

does he already have mad cow?

or was it just all the drugs/drink?

[Bonhomme Richard]

8. It's all the talk about poverty.......

and democracy that is on the agenda at the summit. It must make him crazy.

[Unknown Known]

9. Looked like he'd been drinking

His face was more than usually puffy and red. Slurring words again, too

[grasswire]

12. usually...

....he articulates three syllable words very carefully and deliberately. But today something was going on with his mouth and face. He held his mouth as if something was hurting or he didn't want to/couldn't move his tongue, and that resulted in an odd lisping of the S sounds. And when he grinned, it was all lopsided.

He looked very much like a man who wanted to be in bed, away from the world.

[RedEarth]

14. Yep, sounds like it's the booze

He probably just needs a little vacation time....he's been working too hard.

[Timefortruth]

23. Good point, it has been hours since his last vacation.nt

[jburton]

25. Tequila? n/t

[SpiralHawk]

20. Well, he's been hanging out at the Pig Farm again, unknowable one

And you know how it goes down at the Pig Farm.

The old Arbusto is a few pretzels shy of a full bowl, and now the Hour of the South American Super Bowl has arrived. Shrub is playing "away" and likely "out of his league."

Stiff upper lip, and all that.

(Arbusto's gotta be wondering if anybody else in the crowd knows the "secret" Boner handshake).

Nudge, nudge, wink, wink,
Knowingly, SH

[proud patriot]

10. Yes he did

all blotchy too .

[Stephanie]

11. He's dying his hair

[Skidmore]

15. Yeesh! That's a today picture???

And I just saw an item on some news site referring to him as looking fit and tanned from his vacation.

[Stephanie]

22. That's from Friday

I was watching his speech at the FL fundraiser and that's all I could think. He's dying his hair.

Any expert opinions on this?

[RedEarth]

17. Damn, his face looks like an alcoholic.....poor george

[Closer]

50. Can we say melanoma?

[morningglory]

13. Being at a conference with others, he can't rest all day and then

go to bed early, or it may look like he is lazy. So he is probably trying to look busy with the other guys, instead of watching ESPN in his socks with a bowl of pretzels all afternoon

[SpaceCatMeetsMars]

16. He often looks that way on Mondays, I've noticed

I believe he drinks heavily either on the weekends or maybe just on Sunday.

[Nevernose]

18. After last night's 60 Minutes

He probably got shitfaced. I certainly would have, if I were him.

[Rattlesnake]

19. That man always looks like hell.

[newyawker99]

40. Hi Rattlesnake!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[economic justice]

21. More than booze, it looks like

To me, even more than booze, he looks very much like a person who has been taking tranquilizers for so long that they are addicted and experiencing all the hell that comes with it. Read: Valium, Xanax, Klonopin, etc. (benzodiazepines)....

[Art_from_Ark]

46. It's the "Dorian Gray" thing

Somewhere in the White House attic, there's a painting that looks even worse than the photos.

[Stephanie]

24. Coded message to the base

[Bonobo]

26. Looks like Jerry Lewis...

puffy, very puffy. Mouth muscles look slack. Sagging jowels... I say depressants...or steroids.

[catmandu57]

27. It's those damn pretzels

"These pretzels are making me thirsty".

[onecitizen]

28. He also had an abnormal twitch.......

of the left side of his face. It was definitely uncontrollable and occurred while on stage with Fox.

[Skidmore]

29. He does that when he's skeered...

Bunnypants!!!

[louis-t]

30. sweatin' like Mike Tyson

at a spelling bee.

[grasswire]

31. finally some pics from today

[grasswire]

32. puffy!

[grasswire]

33. blitzed...

[grasswire]

34. drugged up eyes...

[Stephanie]

37. He's wearing makeup

They made him up for television. Not as ruddy as usual.

[NNN0LHI]

35. He was sweating bullets when I seen him. Somethings up n/t

[grasswire]

38. look at this one closely

The left side of his face looks particularly swollen and rosy. This is the side that he seemed to protect from movement. Is it possible that someone hit him again?

[CatWoman]

44. I agree, Don

this O'Neill thing has them shitting bricks!!

[the populist]

39. I noticed that he looks coked

He's fried.

"Didn't the rich already get a tax cut??"

LOL it's like a little kid.

[candy331]

41. I noted that he seemed to be grasping

for words and disoriented too. I tell you today was the worse that I have seen/heard him. Is it fear and drink or drink and fear?

[Hogarth]

42. Heh ... yeah ....

...I tried posting a thread as soon as I saw him on the tube, but a connection failure flummoxed me. He looked like he was rode hard and put away wet.

Makeup!

[Media_Lies_Daily]

43. Bad coke hangover.

[Riptide]

45. Fox must be one tall dude. He is towering over Chimpy.

nt

[Enraged_Ape]

48. Chimpy likes to pretend he's 6' 2" in his official biographies...

but if you look at any picture ever taken of him with other people it's obvious that he's in the 5'7" - 5'9" range, if he's an inch.

[Military Brat]

54. But there are some who say he IS an inch

You know how it is, though, some women just don't want to come out and admit they've actually been with him. So they just say "a friend of a friend told me."

[Military Brat]

47. I believe bush has a skin condition called rosacea

"Its classic symptoms are patchy flushing (redness) and inflammation, particularly on the cheeks, nose, forehead, and around the mouth. It typically appears between the ages of 30 and 50 and affects more women than men. ... Rosacea is aggravated by many factors, including sunlight, physical and mental stress, sinus and allergy conditions, hot liquids, spicy foods, extremes in temperature, alcohol (either topically applied or orally consumed) and stress."
http://www.internationalrosaceafoundation.org/

Have you noticed that whenever the pressure is on, bush looks like he's been drinking? He gets that rosacea "butterfly rash" on his cheeks and across the bridge of his nose. Remember when he had the medical procedure to remove some "lesions" from his face? What bush doesn't understand is that his face gives him away. It's a bitch to carry around the burden of so many lies, isn't it, George?

[myomy]

49. Rosacea, IsnÕt that an Italian wine?

.

[Military Brat]

51. Yes, it is, and it goes well with pizza face

n/t

[Kinkistyle]

53. Clinton has it too.

Thats one of the reasons why he has that puffy red nose.

[kittykitty]

52. Looks like he uses a Tanning Bed, look

how sunburned is nose is, how tan his face is and the areas around his eyes and bridge of his nose are white, like he is wearing tanning goggles.

[rumguy]

55. He did look horrid...he's not getting much sleep

the hounds of truth are after him...
