Bush's scabbed-marked photo

[zulchzulu]

OK, I snagged it off Drudge. What a beee-utiful photo. This one's not from the "pretzel" incident. It's from his recent Bike vs. Chimpy event.

1. Quick, someone make a "Passion" spoof poster!

[gWbush is Mabus]

2. i wonder what it looks like WITHOUT makeup

[lapfog_1]

3. He could pick the scabs off of his hands

let them continue to bleed periodically... and claim to
have the stigmata and to be the chosen one here on earth!

Really!

4. What frightens me is the set of his eyes

you don't often see them that close. They are dead. I think he is drinking heavy again (yet?).

[Warpy]

5. Nah, he's just a garden variety psychopath

...with superimposed Wernicke-Korsakoff after years of heavy drinking.

Hwever, this does tell us why the networks won't be carrying his speech tonight, so we won't get to see a deteriorating mental state combined with a scabby face mouthing the words that Hughes wrote.

7. Our affiliate

NBC in Des Moines said at noon news that they were covering his speech tonight live.

9. so, he was shaking so badly he fell off the bike?

Yep, alcoholic encephalopathy is the best explanation for his behavior and patterns of speech, thought and even gait. I'd love to do some memory testing on him... Ok, I'd rather have someone else do it and then read it - the being in the same room thing....

6. Is he going to make mention of this today?

He's getting wounded just like our soldiers.

8. The FBI should detain that terrorist bike at Gitmo and torture it

by making it do sexually degrading acts until it reveals the whereabouts of Herbie the Lovebug.

13. So Bush is lying about this too?

The Bush shills and excuse-makers blame the the large amount of rain in Crawford for his fall on his bike.

Ya mean the rain that happened 8 days before, partner?

Snip:

More Bush lies?

Here's the official story line from Crawford:

President Bush took a spill during a Saturday afternoon bike ride on his ranch, suffering bruises and cuts that were visible later on his face just two days before he was to deliver a major prime-time speech on his Iraq policy.

The president was nearing the end of a 17-mile ride on his mountain bike, accompanied by a Secret Service agent, a military aide and his personal physician, Richard Tubb, who treated him at the scene, said White House spokesman Trent Duffy.

"It's been raining a lot and the topsoil is loose," Duffy said. "You know this president. He likes to go all-out. Suffice it to say he wasn't whistling show tunes."

So it's been raining a lot in Crawford, we are told. So here's the recent precipitation levels from Crawford:

May 22: 0"
May 21: 0"
May 20: 0"
May 19: 0"
May 18: 0"
May 17: 0"
May 16: 0"
May 15: 0"
May 14: 0.03"
May 13: 2.79"
May 12: 0"
May 11: 0.15"
May 10: 0"
May 9: 0"

May 13th saw some serious rain, but other than some sprinkles on the 14th, Crawford saw nothing but sun. In the last week alone, the temperature was in the high 80s the entire time.

14. hmm

I'd say the fall was caused by liquid...but not rain.
