Bush to undergo medical procedure

From today's online headlines, a report that Bush is visiting the hospital for a colonoscopy.

Hrmm... Actually, the article says it's to happen at Camp David, doesn't mention the hospital, or a physician, altho it includes the doctor's recommendation... So, he's getting a colonoscopy, somehow, at camp.

Doesn't this stuff usually come up under hypnosis? Recovery of repressed memories? Maybe he'll get some proprananol after the fact...

Perhaps it's part of Cheney's security and secrecy protocols...? Surveillance, donchaknow.

Anyhow, check out the lead-in...

US President George W Bush will have a routine colonoscopy on Saturday, temporarily transferring power to the vice-president, the White House says.

I know it's mostly just how my brain likes to turn things sideways, but does that sentence maybe possibly seem to imply something like a cause-and-effect link between the two events? As if one is directly related to the other? And not, y'know, in a simple legal, letter of the law sense, but rather, in a... umm... scientific, or even mechanical one?

Giving W a coloscopy (or perhaps in a more general form, insertion of a device into the president's caboose) results in his power flowing somehow to his VP. Anyone else see that? Imagining a device? Or some sort of nasty hentai eldritch process?

Has anyone ever been rendered incapacitated by a colonoscopy? I mean, he's gonna be sedated, but is there a risk of, like, losing him? Does power transfer to the Dick whenever W's asleep as well?

I had a thought that this might be an opportunity to sneak in some pardons without W actually making them. Not sure if there's an advantage there. Perhaps Dick has some people he wants to pardon quietly, that no one knows about...?

That lead-in is pretty awesome.

* Later that day... In other words, "Bush butt probed, Cheney in charge." From Axcess News. Apparently the X generation (whoever that is... me? you? I forget...) needs its own news. =)

Keep on keepin on~

wow, I read it the same way :)

I just kinda picture a Buckaroo Bonzai-type of contraption hooking up our Commander in Chief and VP together, w/mad scientist John Lithgow serving as, um, facilitator in the procedure.
