* is getting old - Has Balding Knees says Pickles

[RamboLiberal]

Bush's balding knees
The nation's 43rd president is just 58 years old, but he's starting to feel as old as his father. In fact, President Bush has finally accepted that his knees are shot and his jogging days are over. First lady Laura Bush tells our White House correspondent Kenneth T. Walsh that the prez's injured knee just isn't healing as quickly as he wanted. "He thinks probably that he never will really be able to run like he did, again," says the first lady. "Your legs are like tires, and his is bald." Which explains why Bush has fallen for a new sport, mountain biking--it's fun to do even with bum knees.

And like this little snippet - poor baby brass can't swim without lifeguards.

Baghdad mutiny
There's trouble in Baghdad. Seems the brass assigned to the headquarters palace next to Baghdad's airport like to take a break from the 120-degree summer days with a few laps in Saddam Hussein 's old pool. But for the past two weeks, the pool has been off limits even for generals. Reason: Somebody gave all the lifeguards two weeks of R&R. Now, we won't even ask how one gets a job as a military lifeguard, but how could all of them be given leave at once? We're told several officers are very angry, so much so that one colonel told our tipster he was going to swim despite the orders. "What are they going to do," he said. "Send me to Iraq?"

2. Your legs are like tires--mwhwhahahhaha

once more the teacher with two years experience and a year's experience as a librarian turns into a doctor.

I have the feeling that George in his striving to look like a runner, just like Clinto ran, overdid the whole macho man image thing and did the damage to his knees himself. He never looked like a runner--always carried around that paunch. Remember when he forced the reporters and SS men to run with him in over one hundred degree weather? It was foolish--he is not an athlete and is rather clumsy, that is for sure.

5. Awhile back, someone posted all the goofy pictures. . .

of Shrub and modes of transportation: falling off a Sedgway, bumping his head on the helicopter door, falling out of the limo, trying to carry his dog but droping it, banged up from riding his bike. The caption below read: "And this guy wants us to believe he piloted jet aircraft?"

"Your legs are like tires, and his is bald."

Way to showcase your education, Laura. Got any other gems for us?
