Bush looked like he was on something...

[revree]

vacant eyes, staring, licking his lips, pausing wayyyy too long.
KERRY KICKED HIS FUCKING ASS and wait until the debate on domestic issues. BUSH WILL CRUMBLE.

3. I think W had to pee

He looked like a guy stuck somewhere who had to pee so bad that he couldn't see straight.

2. Drinking so much water

Kerry didn't drink any. Bush picked up his water glass on every break. He seemed to have multiple full water glasses under his podium. He seemed to be parched. Nervous?

[onecent]

4. Actually Bush was drinking out of a glass twice with only drops of water

or no water..it was hilarious

5. After about 15 minutes Bush seemed to lose focus and tire

I noticed a definite loss of energy. He began insisting on extra follow-up time spans during which he had nothing new to say and didn't seem to use them to rebut. His attention span must be affected by something.

6. so was the drug kicking in or wearing off?

7. Two possibilities

One: Bush is on heavy meds that disrupt his ability to concentrate (also, anyone else notice how flushed Bush's face was??!!)

Two: He is on meds that can only prop him up for so long before he starts to crumble -- he really started falling apart in that last half hour.

I too am convinced he's on SOME kind of meds, which probably explains why he's refused to take the physical!

8. His brain kept locking up. He looked like he was having a meltdown

on the very first question and spent the night looking like he was in a dentist chair.
