TV Crews Catch Bush Changing Clothes

[Champ]

By DEB RIECHMANN, Associated Press Writer

NEWMARKET-ON-FERGUS, Ireland - In his visit to Ireland, President Bush (news - web sites) stayed in a 16th century Renaissance castle on a 375-acre secluded estate. But it wasn't secluded enough.


Bush was spotted by television cameras as he was standing in a T-shirt at his window at Dromoland Castle. He was visible from the waist up, apparently as he was changing clothes.


An embarrassed Irish government quickly tried to prevent the release of the images.


A notice to the news media said, "The host broadcaster inadvertently transmitted pictures of President Bush at the window of Dromoland Castle. These pictures are the property of the Irish presidency and must not be used for transmission by any service."

6. It looks like Chimpy had his teeth in a glass for the night.

That's probably what pissed off his handlers. Nobody is supposed to know that the boy king's real teeth, long ago, became casualties of his miserable little drug and booze saturated life.

Another thought: did he lose his teeth to Dilantin, the anti-seizure medication well known to cause periodontal disease and tooth loss? A seizure disorder could explain his pretzel, Segway, and mountain bike incidents. It could also explain his frequent tongue-tied blatherings. If so, it would have to be kept in the strictest confidence. Epilepsy would be serious enough to disqualify him from holding the office of president.
