I swear to god, the ignorant fuck is getting worse.
I was watching a report on Bush’s visit to the Philippines and at one point there was some film of him and the President of the Philippines reviewing troops. The film is detailing Bush doing his usual strut when all of sudden he starts licking his lips with his tongue. So now here is our leader strutting down this line of troops, with his tongue peeking out from between his lips, running back and forth and in time to his strut. I am not talking a quick lick, I am talking about a serious running back and forth across the lips for a good minute of more. What a bozo!

2. but that's typical behavior for a snake
----------------------

A snake uses his/her tongue to "taste". As a snake flicks it's forked tongue in and out, it is actually tasting scent particles from the air and the ground around it.

----------------------

:dunce:

but I tend to agree about the drug use observation posted above....cotton mouth.

3. He's probably thinking about the fleshpots of Bangkok.
Or about the name of that city.

5. Rather than sit here like an idiot,
sounding out the words, looking for the 'subliminable' message -

I'll ask-

Is tardive dyskinesia a medical condition?

11. More on thorazine.
"Chlorpromazine ( Thorazine ) is an anti psychotic drug of low-potency. Used in the treatment of disorganized and psychotic thinking. Also used to help treat false perceptions (e.g. hallucinations or delusions.) Chlorpromazine ( Thorazine ) is also sometimes to treat psychotic children. It may be used to treat sever hiccups or protracted nausea."

False perceptions? Delusions? Obviously, it ain't working.

7. Tardive dyskinesia
Tardive dyskinesia is a neurological syndrome caused by the long-term use of neuroleptic drugs. Neuroleptic drugs are generally prescribed for psychiatric disorders, as well as for some gastrointestinal and neurological disorders. Tardive dyskinesia is characterized by repetitive, involuntary, purposeless movements. Features of the disorder may include grimacing, tongue protrusion, lip smacking, puckering and pursing, and rapid eye blinking. Rapid movements of the arms, legs, and trunk may also occur. Impaired movements of the fingers may appear as though the patient is playing an invisible guitar or piano.
