Bush Health Alert
What? Gotta love MSM. In an AP article about Bush’s pending presidential physical, the AP lets us know that Bush is in great health, and able to ride mountain bikes for exercise, now that his knees have given out:
Because of his disciplined nature, love of exercise and competitive spirit, Bush had no trouble surviving the switch.
Wait a sec … What’s your source for stating his “disciplined nature”? This reads like a Rove press release. Later the article goes on to mention how many times Bush has visited soldiers. How this is relevant, I cannot tell.
The checkup was expected to take several hours. Afterward, Bush planned to remain at the hospital to visit with Marines and sailors recovering there from injuries suffered in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bush has visited with wounded troops there once before. He has also paid bedside visits six times to injured soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington.
The article also fails to mention if the doctors will make Bush attempt to climb up a rope, as the Presidential Fitness tests in my elementary school required. Bastards.
UPDATE 12-13-04 Apparently, Bush was found to be fat. Na-ha.

Fuckin’ Shrub.
Way to nail the “Roveing” that’s going on in this story. I find it amazing that Bush, a 58 year old man who’s in good shape except for some bad knees and a penchant for choking on snack foods, must be portrayed as invincible at all times. “Yeah, he bikes now, but man is he aggressive on those trails!” You know what, I don’t want to hang out with ultra competitive cocksuckers who can’t even go for a bike ride without having to show you what a fucking man they are and tear ass down the path. This ass hole is the fucking president!
If only we could achieve world peace through a competitive middle-aged tour de France. If asked, I might even vote for Bush to get that job. Not much thinking involved on that one.
–Joe.
