1. I'm shocked that this thing is actually getting legs
It's fine with me. Make this administration answer the questions.

I know one thing. It's not a wrinkle and if they are saying he wasn't wearing a flak jacket (which is what I always assumed it was) then this story gets a LOT more interesting

6. another red herring.....what about Furious George going nuts?
I just read two frontpage articles in the Chicago Trib, for example, and while one of them described how Kerry got close physically to Bush at one point, NEITHER mentioned Blinky McFurious losing his mind and charging Charlie Gibson.

they didn't even mention the exchange itself, in which the cretin went off on Kerry regarding the coalition of the coerced

no mention at all

I assume this is the way it's going in most/all other major media outlets, in contrast to the way they hounded Gore on his behavior in 2000, the only thing that's concretely remembered from those debates, aside, perhaps, from the lockbox or fuzzy math

surprised? is this the way it's going to be? total blackout of the crazy man getting crazier?

10. A Quasimodo hump, when he landed on the flight deck and climbed...
...out of the jet fighter cockpit, Bush was sporting a cod-piece under his flight uniform. He seems to like humps and bulges.

16. The second bump could be a piece of body armor.
But the first bump, well, it's obvious what it is.

9. That is most certainly not a rumpling of fabric and I have seen such....
...devices hidden under clothing and jackets used for radio pick-up. Is it possible that someone was doing radio eavesdropping at the University that evening who may have picked up radio communication and heard the prompting? It also looks like Bush has something pugged in his right ear in the picture.

12. Kerry is wondering too
Because he patted Bush down during the handshake.

13. They need to have some kind of scrambler in at the third debate
Something that will cause a high pitch screech in Bush's ear and make him fall to the floor in pain.

19. maybe the Bulge is like the oozing cyst that Limbaugh has on his ass
I think it's called a "polynoidal cyst" or something similar.
