Equal Opportunity Narcosis: McAmbien anesthetizing Latinos

[SuperTrouper]

Right now John McAmbien is bringing his ether to the LULAC convention and you can hear a pin drop as probably most Latinos in the audience are snoozing during the speech...occasional applause heard as McLunesta smiles and grins at his own jokes at the wrong time

1. Hah.

I hope there's video. :)

[bunnies]

2. Im beginning to think they're drugging him.

As a means of temper control. He's been seeming even more boring than usual lately.

3. They are. He's on a mood stabilizer--has to be. He's been absolutely

robotic for most of this campaign season.

[bunnies]

5. He can barely even muster an expression anymore.

Must be some seriously strong stuff!

[TwilightGardener]

6. Yep--that's called a "flat affect" in psychological terms.

His smiles and expressions are totally forced, and often inappropriately timed--almost never spontaneous or natural. Might be a disease process (such as Parkinson's or Alzheimer's), poor mental health (chronic depression), or meds. Which of those three does McCain have, I wonder?

[bunnies]

7. None of the three would surprise me in the least.

He's definitely not right in the head. No way that man is fit to be pres. No way.

[SuperTrouper]

8. Flat affect is right

I think that he must be on meds...what a difference from 2000's McCain.

4. LOL

Thanks for the heads up. (not really)

Sounds like a headline at The Onion.
