Have any of you suffered physical ailments just from the sight of Bush?
I know I have. The good news is that most of these are reversible.

Some common side effects of seeing Bush on TV include nausea, insomnia, palpitations, hot spells, joint pain, vomit attacks, profuse sweating, paranoia, anxiety, fatigue, explosive diarrhea, compulsive middle finger disorder, muscle spasms, constipation, excessive back pain, twitching tongue, wax buildup, Dutch elm disease, hand warts, depression, desperation, headaches, ulcers, uncontrollable anger, acid reflux, sudden weight fluctuations, ticklish fingernails (currently untreatable), ingrown toenails, smelly naval, dry eyes, excessive horniness, mad cow disease, irritable bowel syndrome, bruxism (teeth grinding), sinus infections, unexplained rashes, webbed hands, and cannishulungusmisvoliosis (thoughts of cannibalism).

If you are a Democrat, or worse, a liberal Democrat, these are some of the most common side effects you may suffer when you visually consume George W Bush on your TV over just a short period of time. When this arrogant jack-off of a criminal president comes into your view on the screen, strong feelings of HATRED trigger enormous releases of ADRENALINE resulting in major negative surges throughout our bodies which manifest themselves in the form of anything from slight emotional disturbances to far-flung diseases directly caused by the unbearable STRESS of seeing the Chimp on TV as few as 2 to 5 times per week.

Have any of you suffered....let me re-phrase that...How many of you have suffered one or more new physical ailments since the campaign last fall which you know you can attribute to something as simple as the repeated NOXIOUS SIGHTING of Bush on your TV screen? I sure have. Even as recent as of this morning, just the sight of that dumb fucker standing next to John Negroponte triggered a reaction inside of me where I could physically feel all these nasty juices surging through my veins and making their way to every last one of my corpuscles to disrupt each and every one of my bodily eco-systems, leaving me panting irregularly, nauseated, and banging my head onto walls. This bozo of a president has been UNHEALTHY in the most personal kind of ways. Have you noticed since November that every other commercial is about some new drug on the market? Visit any doctor's clinic since November and you'll see people lined up for blocks trying to get in...people formerly in perfect health who now all of a sudden have new mystery diseases popping into their lives. There is no mystery about it...at least not what the cause is #!%@!!#X#%xX!

Wanna change your life around and become healthy again? SKIP THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE. DON'T TAKE DRUGS! CHANGE THE CHANNEL INSTEAD!!!

12. There is no "could" about it. He IS the reason. Get to your local
health food store, and get on the acidophilus right away!

And avoid any future overexposure of the image of Chimpy!

3. LMAO !!
I protested that potlicker twice in person, and I suffered from the compulsive middle finger disorder both times. He was waving as he drove by, and I was giving him the finger.

I do find his picture on TV absolutely revolting. I get sudden stomach pains, and suffer an immediate outbreak of a rare form of Turrets syndrome.

"OH GAWD, THAT PIECE OF SHIT, IF THAT FUCKERS LIPS ARE MOVING THEN THAT BASTARD IS LYING" "CHANGE THE FUCKING CHANNEL BEFORE I BUST THE SCREEN"

19. If you sue, do it quick. Bush is in the process of jamming down that
new law against frivolous lawsuits, the one that protects giant corporations from us little consumers when they make us sick or dead.

6. An uncontrollable jerk of my right leg
which propels my foot toward the screen.

I've decided to stop watching anything that oaf's face is likely to appear on.

I'm out of work and can't afford to replace the set.

13. This is a very common symptom among Democrats since November
You are not alone. What some people find effective is nailing their tip of thier left shoe to the living room floor with your foot still in it, but be careful not to go through your foot itself. When the "jerking" condition manifests itself, you'll be left kicking yourself in counterclockwise circles, keeping you away from harms distance of your screen and at the same time getting your metabolism shifted back to normal due to the counterclockwise motion.

7. I have developed a form of Tourette's Syndrom
Uncontrolled cursing out loud at top volume when I see him on tv. (right before the channel is clicked)
I have also noticed it creeping in in traffic when confronted with a Bush=Tard's bumperstickers, or say at Sears in the tv department when all the tvs go to bush face. I cant control my reactions to seeing his face in private or public.

8. Uncontrollable sneering....flaring nostrils are two side effects
I've noticed. Oh yeah, and the remote control trigger finger goes on auto reflex. Do they have meds for this?

16. You need to get this under control. It could cause early onset of white
nose hairs.

No, there is no known med for remote control trigger finger. The only cure is self amputation. However, people who have gone this route have still been known to effectively flip off the president. Fact is, there is nothing more humiliating for a president than to get flipped off by a middle finger amputee. Giving the Invisible Bird is one of the worst gestures known in modern civilization.

9. If anyone is suffering from these symptoms,
Please contact the CDC and your selected representatives, and document the symptoms associated with the widespread outbreak of this disease. We are facing a crisis in this country that threatens civilization. Congress must act now to stop the spread of this disease and to promote a genuine well being for the citizens of this nation.

For God's sake, when will Congress mandate a cure for this hideous disease?

Where are the "morals" in our Government?

10. Hearing him speak (i.e., radio) has a similar effect
profuse bleeding from the ears, especially after the word "nukular."

I stopped watching TV when the urge to gouge out my own eyes approached uncontrollable.

17. All joking aside, I've heard of so many people suffering the same affects
especially the elevated blood pressure and insomnia. BTW, I am not in the medical profession. Just observant :)

21. One more symptom: Reaganesque mumbling
Edited on Fri Feb-18-05 06:14 PM by linazelle
In respect for those in my immediate vicinity, I refrain from cursing but usually mumble incessantly until I am able to remove * from my line of sight.

23. My reflexes have actually improved.
I wouldn't watch TV at any time where * might appear in the first place. As for the radio, I can usually cut the shrub off before he gets more than 5 words out. As good as he is, even he can't complete a full lie in 5 words or less.

24. f you can count hysterical laughter
as a physical ailment.

I just can't help myself. He doesn't even have to say anything. He can just be sitting in his little chair and it will set me off to hysterical laughter.
