What the hell is wrong with Robert's eyes?!

[hlthe2b]

God, today is the first part of the hearings I've seen

They remind me of that scene in Minority Report where they surgically replace eyeballs to avoid being identified on bioscanners. His eyes do not look like they fit his sockets. Seriously, it gives him a very evil look--one I find frightening! If I believed in such ilck, I'd have to wonder if he is the anti-Christ!

1. okay,

I really don't like commenting on someone's looks, but I wonder if he has a thyroid disease.

6. That doesn't have anything to do with your eyes I don't think

I have thyorids and my eyes don't look like that and I actually blink.

[wakemeupwhenitsover]

20. actually it does.

Do you remember Marty Feldman? He had sort of 'bug eyes'. It was caused by hyperthyroid disease.

Also, a woman I worked with had the same thing. Overnight one of her eyes absolutely blew up.

I don't know if that's what's going on with Roberts. Anyhoo, like I said I don't like discussions of people's looks so I'll bow out now.

2. Very, very scary eyes (because of the emptiness?) What is it?

[PublicWrath]

3. I think he's frightening.

He has the cold, bright eyes of a fanatic.

[FreedomAngel82]

4. I don't trust him either

:shrug: Have you ever seen him blink???

[Vickers]

5. He's got that clear-eyed look of someone going to Heaven.

:eyes:

[PublicWrath]

7. I know just what you mean.

And starry-eyed confidence that the rest of us are going to hell.

9. He looks like a GI-Joe action figure (the old kind)

or a character from Team America.

[CrispyQ]

8. He creeps me out.

I can't even imagine 25-35 years of this self righteous a-hole on the court.

[quiet.american]

10. I thought you were exaggerating until I saw a clip of him last night

His eyes are unnatural -- huge, and an expression where the eyes seem to stay fixed in place no matter the movement of his head.

[Skittles]

11. the man is a certified creep

it is not just his eyes

[mtnsnake]

12. What about Bush's own beady-eyed, squint-slitted eyeballs perched

above that hooked beak....all atop of an upside down smile that makes John Voight's character in "Anaconda" jealous. Would you ever buy a used car from someone who looked like that?

[PublicWrath]

16. Bush has eyes like Barney Rubble

[ecoflame]

13. I think he wears contacts

and doesn't want to change whatever type they are. Please - Bush is the antiChrist, no question about it.

[Ready4Change]

14. I too thought you were just being picky. But I'm watching him now...

And they are... odd?

Very small pupils, with a gray ring and then a very dark ring before reaching the whites of his eyes.

I wonder, is he maybe wearing colorizing contacts? For example, maybe he has brown eyes, but is wearing contacts to make them look blue/grey?

He's blinking a lot too. Maybe he's had some eye problems/surgery?

I don't get evil/empty out of them. But they are odd looking.

15. Reminds me of a guy who had this light in his eyes on the

original Star Trek series.

It was the first season, "Where No Man Has Gone Before." The guy was named Gary Mitchell portrayed by Gary Lockwood.

He becomes very powerful and dangerous to the world.

[Humor_In_Cuneiform]

23. Maybe it's tinted contact lenses

In the Star Trek show, they used contact lenses to create the effect.

He looks like he is in pain too.

Also, does he have a zit on his forehead?

And does he maybe have a bad makeup job?

[DeepModem Mom]

17. Craziest eyes since the Runaway Bride's! nt

[ElsewheresDaughter]

18. they are too close together... and he has a pinched face....

like most repukes....i like open faces

[soothsayer]

19. Eyes of a psychopath

[omega minimo]

21. The eyes are windows to the soul and brain; clearly the man is insane

For lack of judicial experience (distinct from lawyering, one would think)

For a chuckle-headed sports metaphor at his hearing fer gawd's sake

And for eyes that are always fixed but never focused

John Roberts must NOT be confirmed for either seat on the SCOTUS

:bounce:

Haven't you noticed that MOST of the Repug leadership have eyes that go in different directions?

[SiouxJ]

22. He looks like a machine or an alien trying to look human

or something. I can't look at him for more than a few minutes. He looks, plastic or something.

[omega minimo]

24. OO

[skrunch]

25. WatchUtalkingbout, Willis?

They look just fine to us...
