7. That is why, during the 2000 campaign debates, the networks were

forbidden to show a right-side profile of him.

11. Tom, is that right?? I've noticed for years that he is RARELY

photographed so that the right side of his face (especially the R ear) shows. I've also thought that the R ear looks more deformed and Fetal Alcohol Syndrome-ish, although it doesn't actually (to me at least) look like the classic "railroad -track" deformity of the ear seen in some pics of FAS.

Certainly the very loooong and flat philtrum (space between the nose and upper lip) and the nearly non-existent upper lip SCREAM Fetal Alcohol Effect. And these features (plus the ears) give the very Chimpish appearance.

Any link on the "verboten to show right-side profile" issue?

(on edit - the little beady eyes go along with FAS as well)

[TomInTib]

12. Yeah, it is true.

They actually threatened to cancel a debate when FOX set up on his right side.

13. Veddy interesting! Do you remember where you read that?

[TomInTib]

14. No, I don't. But it was reported at the time.

It might have been in NYTimes. An article about unprecedented debate stage management.

4. his chimp features are REALLY prominent

in this picture. This is one of his nice faces, but note the sloping forehead and extra long arms.

6. Looks like a chimp in a human disguise

ugliest picture ever.

5. OO-OO-AH-AH TOOKI TOOKI!

George, George
George of the jungle...


Watch out for that tree!!!

8. Shouldn't it be "Oh, oobee doo..........

Now I'm the king of the swingers
Oh, the jungle VIP
I've reached the top and had to stop
And that's what botherin' me
I wanna be a man, mancub
And stroll right into town
And be just like the other men
I'm tired of monkeyin' around!

Oh, oobee doo
I wanna be like you
I wanna walk like you
Talk like you, too
You'll see it's true
An ape like me
Can learn to be humen too

9. is the chimp gumming down his bananas? maybe he is spitting out seeds of

terror...whatever he is doing his resemblance to chimps is uncanny and an insult to the poor chimps!
