President Bush was treated for Lyme disease last August, the White House announced Wednesday after failing to disclose the problem for nearly a year.
The treatment was revealed only when the White House made public all the results of Bush’s annual physical exam on Wednesday. It showed up in the “past medical history” section and in the summary along with other skin conditions.
Bush was treated for what his doctors described as “early, localized Lyme disease”…
Oh, never mind. I misread the headline. I thought it said: Bush treated for Lying Disease.
A year from now we’ll find out he’s HIV positive!
#15 I am sick of disrespect for the office of president.
Lampooning, ridiculing, and insulting candidates for and holders of the Office of the President has a rich tradition as old as our nation itself. Any man or woman willing to suggest that he or she deserves to run the nation deserves to be mocked, prodded, etc.
In fact, I would go so far as to say that the ability to weather criticism founded or not is a terribly important measure of the character of any one who would lead.
Besides, if anything, the voices on DU are quite tame when compared with some of the mudslinging done during the early days of the Republic.
“I am sick of disrespect for the office of president.”
Hmmm…so that might mean you are not in any way at odds about the reasons for the US being in Iraq at all? If you respect the office so much you should be a blathering idiot salivating in front of Bush’s dais. Respect is earned and don’t forget that. Your “Commander Guy” has no respect outside of his family, trust me. I don’t respect him and ummm….let’s see….a couple of hundred million(!!) people think the same.
People like you make me ill….
#9, Angel,
Now that was great. Geeze, a good laugh right after dinner always does one well.

I am sick of disrespect for the office of president.
Me too. As soon as we get Bush out of the Oval Office the better off this country will be. How this excuse of a drug addled, alcoholic, AWOL asshole can degrade the Office of the President of the United States of America and still be defended is beyond me.
I am so glad you didn’t make the mistake of confusing the Office for the person.
#18, James,
you’re still a dipshit, trolling, lame brained, asshole. My apologizes to all the other asshole that feel offended being grouped with James Hill.
#24 – And yet you can’t stop worshiping me. Please, continue.
I am a Lyme disease patient, if Bush had all the symtoms that I have
endured, no way could he be relied upon as president of anything. This is a serious illness, left untreated, and no telling how many times this prez has been infected on his ranch..it is reported he has been bitten several times, OVER HALF OF THE LYME CARRYING TICKS WHO HAVE INFECTED PEOPLE, THOSE PERSONS DID NOT HAVE ANY RASH! So how long has this Prez actually had the illness?
WE WILL NEVER BE TOLD!
