Bush on drugs footage/transcript?
"Bush's erratic behavior and sharp mood swings led White House physician Col. Richard J. Tubb to put the President on powerful anti-depressant drugs after he stormed off stage rather than answer reporters' questions about his relationship with indicted Enron executive Kenneth J. Lay, but White House insiders say the strong, prescription medications seem to increase Bush's sullen behavior towards those around him."

Does anyone know where I can get some video clips or even a transcript of the Mr. Druggie "storming off?"

P.S. Why isn't the 'Bush on drugs' story being repeated over and over and over as a 24/7 mantra round here?

2. Mostly because a lot of folks here

are not very trusting of the veracity of CHB. Some say they
are the "Drudge" of the Left. OTOH, that story HAS sort of
entered our small version of the echo chamber ( I heard this
repeated once on Air America yesterday ), if it leaps from
left talk radio to any talking heads (someone slip it to The
Daily Show... I can see the whole skit now). If it hits the
mainstream media (CBS, NBC, ABC) then we can start seeing some
freeper heads explode over this.

Anyway, the story likely cannot be proved or disproved... but
there have been quite a few Bush meltdowns on camera (including
the last primetime press conference he did), but not enough to
warrant a serious allegation without some sort confirming evidence
or testimony. It would take a lot for someone reputable to make
such an allegation because, no matter what else, Bush is still
a sitting president and this would force him to resign (there is
an Article in the Constitution on the President's ability to serve).
Also, does ANYONE really want "President Cheney"? That's the
ultimate impeachment insurance.

4. Somebody PLEASE find video from the 8/14/03 blackout address!
You remember when the electrical grid went down from Ohio to New York? Sure you do. The "news" programs were wall-to-wall with footage (all puns intended) of New Yorkers walking home from work.

At first CNN said that bu$h would have no comment, as he was off in California at (surprise!) a fund-raiser. Then (several hours later) they said he would address the nation LIVE. THEN, they said that "technical difficulties" (my shiny metal ass!) were preventing them from carrying the address. THEN they got around to admitting that bu$h's remarks would be PRE-RECORDED. Well, there was a REAL good reason for that:

bu$h was drunk on his ass that night. He wobbled to the podium! His eyes looked like a roadmap to Mars. His pointy little head rolled around like a BB in a boxcar. Several times his eyeballs rolled upward into his empty skull and it looked like he was going to pass (back) out. He slurred his words WAY worse than usual.

We've all had to sober somebody up. You know, pull them out of bed and try to get them coherent enough for something important that they simply HAD to face. This is exactly what the Boy King's handlers had to go through that evening.

The pResident was full of some MIGHTY good whiskey on August 14, 2003. (I suspect Black Bush from County Antrim.) If you accept that alcohol is a drug (and never mind the stimulants they had to give him to get him upright), the Worthless Little Fuck was HUGELY on drugs during this appearance!

If somebody can find this video, it will prove conclusively that bu$h was Missing In Action that day--and it will beg the question of how many MORE times he's been MIA.
