Bush's mystery bulge
The rumor is flying around the globe. Was the president wired during the first debate?
Oct. 8, 2004 | Was President Bush literally channeling Karl Rove in his first debate with John Kerry? That's the latest rumor flooding the Internet, unleashed last week in the wake of an image caught by a television camera during the Miami debate. The image shows a large solid object between Bush's shoulder blades as he leans over the lectern and faces moderator Jim Lehrer.
The president is not known to wear a back brace, and it's safe to say he wasn't packing. So was the bulge under his well-tailored jacket a hidden receiver, picking up transmissions from someone offstage feeding the president answers through a hidden earpiece? Did the device explain why the normally ramrod-straight president seemed hunched over during much of the debate?

Nice red x.
its a strap crease from his body armor dumbass...
I don't know if the images ar real or not. Anything can be doctored. Hugely funny if it is, though. They feel they need to wire him for verbal prompts when the questions are available in advance, basicly scripted? And he lost?
We'll find out later that it was only a special black pen.
No kidding. As many nutjobs that are out there passing along conspiracy theories about BushCo, Halliburton, Unocal, and what not no doubt he has to be wearing that .its a strap crease from his body armor dumbass...
Come on you guys, they make cell phones that are tinier than that. I think Cosmic's assertion makes more than enough sense to me.
Isn't there a book out there about assasinating him?
But it's from Salon.com....it must be true!
There is but I don't remember the le.
I believe so. It's almost as if the left wing conspiratorial nutjobs wanted to prove they were more ing nuts than the right wing conspiratorial nutjobs of the Clinton era.
They've succeeded, in my opinion.
IMHO, I think we should find out where Cheney was transmittig from.
Just to keep the fun going: those straps in your illustration all look a LOT closer to the edges of body mass, CC. That thing on his back is dead center.
Equal time: I don't see any earpiece in that photo, but DAMN, his barber needs to be fired to let him out the door with that much ear fuzz. It's a wonder he could even hear the questions.
Did he "stuff" the wrong place?
so kerry can have a magic pen but bush can't?
I'm quite certain, Joe, that that is one place where the President would not be in need of *stuffing*.
ex...I suspect it is what they call a "ballistic plate" on the back of his armor...the secret service obviously has access to the best available...and your better body armor has pockets front and back where they can add high tech ceramic plates to increase the level of protection of the vital area over that of just the kevlar...the picture I showed was just a generic body armor without ballistic plates...
and I definitely agree that if he was "bugged" then state of the art stuff would have been used which would have been absolutely tiny and undetectable...
hehehe thay have armor for that "stuff" too...
LMAO...for $250 plus shipping you can make your balls bulletproof...
Wow. Does Salon WANT to be taken seriously?
Well that is more information than I need.I'm quite certain, Joe, that that is one place where the President would not be in need of *stuffing*.
Big juevos doesn't mean big chorizo.
Okay, so Bush was wired and Kerry brought in notes.
They are both dumb s; this isn't news. Maybe four years from now, we as citizens of this country can make sure there will be more desirable options running for president.
I felt that way a couple of months ago but one does not get the feeling that Kerry is committed to actually dealing with the crazy Islamofascist er threat until the US is attacked again whereas Bush, for all of his fiscal flaws, seems quite able to grasp that rather simple concept. Kerry's desire to submit US foreign policy to the predilections of France, Russia, China, and Germany is not that appealing. Also, it doesn't help that just about every criticism of Bush from lib Dems leads back to some tortured conspiracy theory.
I suppose I should read The Nation and visit democratunderground.org or whatever regularly. Then I might be able to descend into the conspiratorial cluster to which some here belong.
But don't worry, I'm sure that if Kerry is elected you won't get the goodies you expect him to give you.
Kerry's supporters and their candidate have, however, gotten so hysterical and nonsensical that voting for GWB seems like a preferable alternative.
Good work.
