Could it be Alzheimers?

Let me first start off this segment by saying I think Alzheimers is an awful disease and I for one only hope that there is a cure found for this soon. It's the only disease that can literally rob you of the only thing you have growing older - your memories. I am in no way making fun of anyone with Alzheimers - on the contrary, I think someone should look into my findings below more closely - unless it's a cover-up in which case we'll never know the truth for another 60 years or so.





Could it be that G.W. has memory loss? Granted, this occured to the Clinton's during White Water and during/after Bill's numerous flirtations with everyone but his wife, but those were temporary. G.W.'s might actually be more serious. Watching him closely during the debates, I, like everyone else heard how he's stupid, a moron, dim-witted and everything else. I don't believe it, and still don't but maybe, it's something more sinister. Let's look at the symptoms of Alzheimers below:

Memory loss
- Forgot about an exit strategy for Iraq
- Forgot he should have good intelligence before taking pre-mptive action
- Forgot the liberal press would actually dig until they find something
- Forgot the American people really want a solid plan about Bin-Laden and Al-Queda
- Possibly forgot to show up for his Air National Guard posting (CBS info is discounted here! Go away Dan Rather!)

Problems doing familiar tasks
- Has trouble with pithy comments and frequently thinks of great come-backs on the way home on Air Force One.
- Can't ride a bike very well (crashed twice)
- Forgot he can't ride a bike very well and was riding again yesterday (October 3rd)

Problems with language
- It's no secret the man is NO public speaker and will probably not be on the ex-president speaking circuit after he's done
- Has interesting pronounciation of common words
- Example: "Secondly, the tactics of our—as you know, we don't have relationships with Iran. I mean, that's—ever since the late '70s, we have no contacts with them, and we've totally sanctioned them. In other words, there's no sanctions—you can't—we're out of sanctions."—Annandale, Va., Aug. 9, 2004

Trouble knowing the time, date, or place
No evidence of this being a problem.

Poor or decreased judgment
- Iraq

Problems with abstract thinking
- "See, free nations are peaceful nations. Free nations don't attack each other. Free nations don't develop weapons of mass destruction."—Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 3, 2003
Uhh - hello.

Misplacing things often, such as keys
- He can't find those darned WMD's in Iraq

Loss of interest in starting projects or doing
things

No evidence of this


Is there something to this? Is he really just stoopid or aren't all the neurons firing all at one time? Maybe he's on medication (there's been accusations he's addicted to pain-killers or other drugs which causes his sometimes delayed reactions. There's one thing for sure - G.W. will not be a final contestant on Jeopardy, ever.
