NASA Scientist Says Bush Was Wired
http://www.salon.com/news/feature/2004/10/29/bulge/
NASA photo analyst: Bush wore a device during debate
Physicist says imaging techniques prove the president's bulge was not caused by wrinkled clothing.

George W. Bush tried to laugh off the bulge. "I don't know what that is," he said on "Good Morning America" on Wednesday, referring to the infamous protrusion beneath his jacket during the presidential debates. "I'm embarrassed to say it's a poorly tailored shirt."

Dr. Robert M. Nelson, however, was not laughing. He knew the president was not telling the truth. And Nelson is neither conspiracy theorist nor midnight blogger. He's a senior research scientist for NASA and for Caltech's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and an international authority on image analysis. Currently he's engrossed in analyzing digital photos of Saturn's moon Titan, determining its shape, whether it contains craters or canyons.

then he goes into how he did his analysis and he goes into detail about why he's sure that Bush was wired electronically during the debate (worth getting the daypass to read)


Hapke, too, agrees that the bulge is neither anatomy nor a wrinkled shirt. "I would think it's very hard to avoid the conclusion that there's something underneath his jacket," he says. "It would certainly be consistent with some kind of radio receiver and a wire."

"Look, he says, "I'm putting myself at risk for exposing this. But this is too important. It's not about my reputation. If they force me into an early retirement, it'll be worth it if the public knows about this. It's outrageous statements that I read that the president is wearing nothing under there. There's clearly something there."

1. Yeah but...
that means the coaching to dumbass consisted of "look stupid", "say really stupid things", "blink your eyes convulsively", "act like a baby". My thanks to the coacher who ever it was.

2. No, it just means
1. they didn't practice with him enough, or

2. you can't teach an old chimp new tricks :evilgrin:

I think he was wired to provide rebuttal information and stats that he so horrendously cannot remember, not to feed him the primary 'talking points' ... but he was nervous or chemically buzzed (or both) which made him seem even more like a total nutcase.

You know how some people act when they KNOW they're up to something sneaky but are trying to hide it ?


:hippie:

3. No. Regular coaching, but the coacher forgot Shrub psychology
The coacher gave regular coaching but was unaware or clueless about Shrub psychology. When feeding instructions to Shrub while Kerry was speaking, Shrub was blinking trying to follow two streams. The instructions made him angry and forget the meaning of the timing lights. Shrub was being fed some info when he shouted in the second debate "let me finish"; he was really speaking to his coaching voice.

The coaching voice is really only another voice competing in his head. There is his own inner voice, the good angel and bad angel voices, the voice of god he thinks tells him he is anointed, and the wireless coaching voice.
