Is George Bush an Idiot? Round III

It turns out that there very well may be another explination for GWB. he's not actually stupid, he is just sick. Very very sick.



One doctor thinks he shows signs of "presenile dementia," or an early onset of Alzheimer's disease.

In a letter to be published in The Atlantic's October issue, Joseph Price, a self-described "country doctor" in Carsonville, Mich., calls presenile dementia "a fairly typical Alzheimer's situation that develops significantly earlier in life. . . . President Bush's `mangled' words are a demonstration of what physicians call `confabulation' and are almost specific to the diagnosis of a true dementia." He adds that Bush should be "started on drugs that offer the possibility of retarding the slow but inexorable course of the disease."

Holy shit.

I've long believed that it was an act - I know that he used to be an exemplary speaker with a command of sentence and large vocabulary. I thought he was just putting it all on to appear "regulary everyday Joe".

Not so sure now.
