Bush is covering up his medical problems...
Whether it's the onset of Alzheimer's, the results of alcoholism or current use of pschotropic medications that can seriously affect one's reasoning, there is something that bush is covering up by refusing to take his August physical. We know he has a record of missing physicals when it might reveal negative results. But this should be hammered by every Democrat using phrases similar to what I've mentioned above. Bush is sick and America should know how serious it is before reinstalling him in the White House. Just think if Cheney were able to be official pResident!!

8. I can't find a link, but I also heard this on CNN around 3:30/4:00.
There's another thread on this same statement.

Funny, one poster wanted to ack if missing physicals is a habit with George!

2. The sickest man is Cheney--
When have we ever been advised of the results of his yearly physical?

3. I have suspected just this.
Something, other than being an asshole, is up with Mr. Bush.

Any medical doctors with an opinion?

4. Didn't complete Guard duty + will be unemployed in January +
NG troops are being called up = Bush potentially sent to Iraq.

So he doesn't take the physical. Hey it worked last time.

6. Since CNN is the one who reported this, I suggest everyone email them
and demand that they do some follow up with the White House on this. I did. I want to know why he decided to postpone it, when he made this decision, what prescription drugs he's taking, and what the hell he is trying to hide.

7. Did you see his debate with Ann Richards which has been played over
the last few days (in bits and pieces). Can't believe it's the same guy. He could keep a thought in his head and finish a sentence. He seemed calm. He has some sort of deterioration going on and some sort of rage episodes. Something is wrong with him. Of course, if he completely became derranged or incapacitated we wouldn't be able to tell the difference anyway........

10. Yes, I saw it several times. One comentator said it was
because he felt comfortable wwith the people in Tx. It's much easier to deal with a state audience which is primarily froendly, and a national audience which is hostile.

Sure was a heck of a difference though. I didn't hear even ONE er, ah, hmm, or huh.
