Whats the story with * not taking a physical?

[edhopper]

I'm not talking about the TNG. I'm talking about this years physical he was scheduled for in August. Has any MSM reported on this? Why isn't this a BIG story?

4. mainstream media (eom)

13. what's (eom) - and does anyone have the date he 'was' scheduled?

Maybe John should ask ol' Georgie Porgie in the next debate, or better yet, have one of the 'town-hallers' ask him.

21. EOM= end of message

he has a history of ducking physicals, he was due in August. Why nobody is saying anything I don't know.

2. HAHAHAHA DEJA VU ? I had no idea.

He missed his presidential physical ? Well we know John Kerry is Fit for Command !

5. I guess he's decided not to fly after August 2004.

Actually, that's a very good question.

Once again, George W. refuses to take his physical!

We, the American people, demand to know why!

6. ok

I've been screaming about this - particularly with his obvious deterioration in brain function. NOBODY LISTENS TO ME!!! :crazy:

11. Do you have a link? I just blinked and the story was gone here on DU

7. The constant blinking,sweating,weight loss,dementia and mood swings...

What could it mean?

9. Ear implant to be removed before next physical - in Nov.

Not a joke

But MSM will not report it.

10. He is very sick and they are covering it up.

There was a marked deterioration that I observed during the debate when compared to how he presented in 2000.

12. raging alcoholism and drug addiction

an implanted speaker they can't admit to

serious mental instability

dementia

just a few reasons.

14. maybe he's afraid his potbelly will ruin his "athlete" image ...

His tummy is just as big as everybody else's -- so he can't pretend he's fitter than the rest of the country. And that was his sole claim to superiority!

15. SOMETHING is wrong with him and his handlers

are covering it up. Typical behind closed doors, sneaky, slimey WH.

[foo_bar]

16. too busy with taxonomy of love child

17. Good debate question.....................

why do you have a history of refusing physicals? What are you trying to hide?

That would get Bush's blood pressure rising again.

18. In attempt to research this, I now know WAY too much about W.

And now I'm going to share it with you:

A "fatty cyst" was removed from Bush's chest in 1960

Bush had a hemorrhoid during the period of his National Guard enlistment (1968-1973)

At least for a time in business school, he chewed tobacco

Actinic keratoses are pre-cancerous sun-induced skin lesions. Three such lesions were removed from Bush's face on August 4, 2001 using liquid nitrogen

At his August 2001 physical, Bush was 6 feet 0 inches tall, and weighed 189.75 pounds. (people here wondered how tall he was)

Two benign colonic polyps were removed in 1998 and 1999, while Bush was governor of Texas

20. they must have rounded up ...

Bush himself claimed to be 5'11" (in Alexandra Pelosi's video interview).
