1. Very ironic caption
President Bush is helped after tripping on a step after speaking at the Canton Palace Theatre about medical liability reform Friday, Oct. 22, 2004 in Canton, Ohio.

Bush actually (no joke) filed a frivolous lawsuit right before the 2000 election. Sued a car rental company for an accident his daughter got in, but the judge threw it out.

8. The women surrounding Bush in the photo
are all wearing identical doctor's office type smocks and/or white lab coats. Looks like some doctor's office gave their whole staff the day off and sent them over to the Bush talk about medical liability "reform" (translation - you can't sue us even if we kill your mom through gross negligence).

32. THAT thought gave me a chill, Montanacowboy
They do look like they stepped out of The Handmaid's Tail.

They're probably not even really medical workers. Probably the usual adoring bushbots being forced to play dressup to suit the "theme" of *'s speech.

33. Where is the body armor?

Here he is in an unknown crowd and apparently has on no armor.

He goes to a highly screened debate setting and people say he has body armor!

The biggest threat to Bush is BUS!

Ironic that CNN thought it was SOoo funny when Castro tripped.

Let's see how funny this trip is.

Pass the pretzels,

23. Elvis Costello, anyone?
"There's a merry tune that starts in "I"
And ends in "You," like many famous pop songs do
You would sing along with little tell-tale staggers
While balancing on daggers
Though they were killing you
You looked so deadly"

Rest of the lyrics here:

27. How symbolic can you get for the fall of the Chimp?
Hee didn't trump Castro's Chevy Chase performance, though. I just saw the Castro video last night and woah ... musta' hurt. Bam ... flat on the floor.

30. Fidel & George, Sittin' In a Tree, T-R-I-P-P-I-N-G
Don't ever, ever say that George W "tripped"...because "in Texas, we call that...walking".

Well, at least we know that Fox News will stop showing Fidel Castro tripping now since their boy tripped himself.

35. Interesting: There's no bulge.
Did anyone see this campaign event? Did Bush have written notes (index cards, teleprompter) to work from? I betcha he did.

There's got to be a correlation here...
