Brain Ten Years -- NEW LINK
It's *gwb* ... NEW LINK:

http://www.adbuzz.com/bushbuzz.htm

The big story - "a striking decline in his sentence-by-sentence speaking skills." The reason?
One doctor says "pre-senile dementia" a catch-all term for earlier-than-normal cognitive impairment.
This video inter-cuts footage from 10 years ago with recent footage - the difference is dramatic and disturbing.

The creator's site >>

***

Clips from the earlier debate (1994) were shown on PBS Frontline tonight >>

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/choice2004/

The show will be available online October 15, 2004.

*note* If you cannot view, pm, and I'll forward file via email, at your request.

1. This video Link is a bomb shell!


It should be on the front page.

I was riveted and just could not believe it was the same GW that we have before us today.

For me it is the last piece of the "was he wired" story.
In '94 he did not need a wire, even as a brand new politician, he didn't need help. He had a natural style of talking and a certain appeal to the Conservatives in Texas.

In '04 he either needs help by ear phone or other clues to remember that he is George W. Bush.

After watching the video, my mind flips to 9 11 in the classroom.
That was the 2001 GW. Go forward 3 years and he gets even worse.

This man is seriously ill and is UNFIT TO LEAD.

Please keep this kicked.

2. Kickety kick!
Thanks for the working link. It just blows my mind.

Or maybe Bush was on blow. Either way, HUGE difference.

4. Good work drfemoe!
You finally found a home for that QT movie.

I've literally watched this video about 30 times. I've tried to deconstruct the Shrub's fall from relatively articulate forceful speaker into bumbling idiot. The most important discovery for me is that I truly believe that he was trying to recapture his "older self" during the second debate. He was trying to be forceful, assertive, powerful. He must realize what he's lost, what he used to be capable of, but instead, owing to his recent infirmities, comes across only as aggresive and nasty and wild-eyed.

5. Exactly!

I just saw a thread about Bush in 1999...

Kath has this on another thread

earpiece have been around for a LOOONNNNGGGG time:

http://www.americanpolitics.com/111999DISpatch.html

"About the only thing that Bush accomplished with this "momentous" speech was to provide his GOP opponents with plenty of ammunition when they actually face Dubya in a debate -- that is, if Bush ever shows up at one without the "earpiece" he is rumored to need to make sure he stays "on message."

He was displaying speech pattern problems even then.

That means before he was unelected!

http://www.blogitics.com/index.php/weblog/excuses_for_bushs_debate_failure

-- did the whole thing. I just bring it here as a humble servant of the CAUSE!!

You are right, trying to recapture that lost mind .. mebee we are better off with the twit, so we can tilt him out of office.

Just imagine if he had the old brain?
Try 14 year olds as "adults"?
Again, I say, that explains aLOT!

Save our country.

So many versions of drfemoe's link have been flying.

It remains a MUST SEE and MUST KICK every time it is posted.

Thanks for kicking in advance.

11. Noticed that on my own

I wached PBS tonight, and Bush in his 30s and 40s was far more capable of uninterrupted, normal speech. He does appear to have some sort of ailment, or possibly brain damage from all the years of drug and alcohol abuse?

14. I agree,

23. Just unbelievable. I'm putting it on disk for those with small mailboxes
What's most convincing and remarkable is that they did not choose the worst of w's recent performances, but just an average sample, not remarkable in any way.
