What's up with that spastic jaw thing Bush does now? |
|
Where he keeps swinging his bottom jaw back and forth like he's trying to set his dentures back in place or something.
I noticed it a few weeks ago when he was discussing Alberto Gonzales as a potential nominee to the Supreme Court. That bottom jaw was swingin like crazy! Has he always done this or has he taken on a new tic?

1. I'd never noticed it or heard anyone mention it until recently |
|
Very common tic for people jonesing for coke.
I'm betting it has something to do with his prescription medication.

Symptomatic of cocaine/meth addiction or the presence of heavy-duty psychotropics and/or SSRI-type drugs in the bloodstream.

I do medical research. It just made me laugh because I was thinking the exact same thing right before you posted it.

9. No lie! What's up? MSM asleep again. |
|
Yeah! I posted a similar topic a week or so ago.
Maybe Bush has gotten used to chewing on piece of straw during his aw-shucks, brush-clearin' photo-ops in Crawford.
If it were Clinton, the R's would have paid Ken Star another $10 million to climb into Clinton's mouth to investigate. Oh, and the MSM would have Clinton TMJ-gate updates every 15 minutes.

10. Hello, meDia: Get a frikkin clue |
|
this is a story that needs to be told, since everyone else in the nation other than the meDia has already noticed it and discussed it ad nauseum at the water cooler.
Time to "discover" this peculiarity and "break" the news to the nation, wouldn't you say?
You, too, could earn a PeeUlitzer

Everyone keeps talking about it, and he's undoubtedly going to do it tonight. He's got to be sh*tting in his pants right about now.

he's back on the blow!
The "bathroom break" is code for coke-heads, and the jaw thing is definitely something that coke-heads do (grinding their teeth). I should know, although I won't say why :D
The point is, the MAN IS BACK ON THE BLOW!! Can you hear me know people!

17. Yep, he's dancing with Sweet Cousin Cocaine again . . . |
|
I can't blame him. . . If I destroyed a city and killed 10,000 people, I'd go on a bender, too. But I wouldn't be an idiot and broadcast my condition all over national TV.

26. His constituents wouldn't know anything about Coke |
|
unless they're rich, and then they're probably his connection or vice versa.
The fake-christian-republicans certainly wouldn't recognize a coke-jaw if it smacked them in the... err... jaw?

I didn't realize so many others had noticed it! :P
From the way people have been talking on other boards, it was a huge deal during his debates with Kerry. And they all agree...The man is desperate for his coke.

20. Its a symptom of untreated alcoholism |
|
I know because I had the exact same problem. I used to grind my teeth and clench my jaw badly when trying to abstain on my own. Wore my teeth down into little stubs.
Working the program removed this this and many other physical maladies that were directly related to my alcoholism.
Easy does it FF

25. I mentioned in a post yesterday |
|
that I had been watching some older footage of **, and there was none of this jaw grinding which now is so painfully obvious every time he speaks ... especially in his more informal settings. I would find it hard to believe that he hasn't fallen off the wagon recently. I've been around enough meth and coke heads to have my suspicions.

he's always done it sometimes more sometimes less
if you've done drugs you might notice it sooner than the naif
he's heavily on the coke & has never really even denied it

30. I've seen that grinding motion in people with addictions |
|
alcohol, coke, crystal meth. Particularly if they're getting desperate for some of their poison. Ecstasy users do it to while they're coming down off their high. Some of them put pacifiers in their mouths to keep from grinding their teeth into splinters.
