Look at the evidence here:
http://homepage.mac.com/c.shaw/BushBulges/PhotoAlbum15.html

Contact your media and government officials.

To ignore this story is a failure to get at the truth. A truth that may be one of these possibilities:

1. The President of the free world has a serious health problem (he was wearing a medical device of some kind)

2. The President of the free world is a cheat (he was wearing an audio-cue device)

This is not a trivial or diversionary story. It has a direct impact on your decision for deciding who will have so much power.

HALLOWEEN IDEA:

Strap a box to your back and wear the most presidential suit you can find. Form a group and protest your local media outlet on October 31.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/Dec 19th 2005 1:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/Dec 19th 2005 1:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/
This is NOT just a "pro-Kerry / Anti-Bush" issue.

(Although, I am stunned by your apathy on this particular issue, since it is highly likely that if the truth is exposed -- BUSH IS TOAST!)

Regardless of your political stripes, I find it simply breathtaking that you can call this story "RIDICULOUS".

With this statement, you are saying:

1. I don't care if the president may have a serious health problem and I don't care if they lie about it. (He has postponed his scheduled physical until after the election, by the way.)

2. I don't care if my leader cannot hold his own when facing a direct challenge to his policies.

By NOT CARING about these issues, you are setting a precedent, my friend. You are dangerously lowering the standards for the most powerful position in the world.

Not only that -- you are telling the U.S. mainstream media (who's already dangerously lazy and incompetent) that, "Hey! It's alright if you don't do your job!"

Let's see -- how does the American public benefit from journalism "not doing its job"? Well, many would argue that thousands have died in the Iraq war because the media DID NOT DO ITS JOB!!!

Oh, well! At least they covered the IMPORTANT issues leading up to the war!

RE: NOT A POLICY ISSUE.

Well, you say -- it's not a policy issue. You shouldn't spend any time about anything that's not a "policy issue".

Why is that?!

Are health and character issues not important to the U.S. electorate?!!!

Ah, yes!! Being a "Democrat supporter", I can see why you want to keep on the "policy issues".

Just look at where we've gotten after three debates and months of campaigning:

Kerry: 47%
Bush: 47%

Perhaps, as a "Kerry supporter" -- you should put more time into demanding that your press find the truth when you are being blatantly lied to and the evidence is staring everyone in the face.

Evidence that cannot be refuted and is damning any way you look at it.

With all the communist/socialist left wing liberal weiners.

There wasn't that big of a deal broght up about the blatant cheating that Kerry did for the first debate.

How can you possibly reason that pulling a pen out of a jacket is anywhere near the same as having a box strapped to your back is beyond me.

Let's not forget that this object has been on Bush's back on multiple occasions before the debates as well.

All they have to do is tell us WHAT IT IS.

That will dispell the concerns that the president has serious health problems or that he can, in fact, actually debate issues when people disagree with him -- without the aid of someone in his ear.

After all, we all know how well he took control of the situation without the box on his back on 9/11.

His health and his ability to lead is on the table here.

It looks like a small notecard to me.

The rules are VERY clear only pens and paper that AT the podium. So even if it was a pen - it was gainst the rules, because this could easily be a device that could have had a TEXT LCD on it.

The box on his back, if there truly was one could have been a monitored signal secret service communication. There WAS quite a bit fear that there would be an attack during the debates.

The reason there isn't anything being said is because it's silly - that's why...

And again - not much was made of Kerry breaking debate rules.

(By the way, please show me evidence that Kerry actually pulled out a notecard. Also, show me evidence that the pen he used had an LCD display on it.)

Turning back to the real issue here:

The president has had this object on his back on numerous occasions (even before the debates). As far as I can see, there's no evidence of him using it at any time after the debates. Has the threat suddenly become an non-threat, Rus?

Why don't they just say that it's a secret service device? The cat, after all, is out of the bag.

Why can't they simply state WHAT IT IS?!

What do they fear?

On second thought, maybe it IS about rules. The rule of "transparency" in democracy is being broken here. That's a pretty big break in the rules, don't you think?]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/Dec 19th 2005 1:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/

Anyway, a little candidness and transparency by the Bushies would really go a long way to helping us trust him. Because if we don't know what's under Bush's jacket, then the terrorists have already won.]]>Dec 19th 2005 1:03AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/http://www.engadget.com/2004/10/22/the-idebate-rages-on/

Thanks to the President of the United States, this secretive, rarely talked-about issue has come to the forefront. A problem only fringe, underground dry-cleaners knew about.

The rectangular shirt back-bulge (a.k.a. RSBB)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I don't know what that is," Bush said. "I mean, it is -- I'm embarrassed to say it's a poorly tailored shirt."

- President Bush, Good Morning America - October 27, 2004.
