Edited on Mon Aug-07-06 05:20 AM by Garbo 2004
How many photos have you seen of U.S. officials immediately after surgery?
Absolutely ZERO. That would be retarded, wouldn't it?
I know no one I have never known who has had surgery is having photos for public consumption taken right after surgery.
Someone is really yanking the chains of some of our finest morans. Normal people wouldn't fall for that one. You don't have your self video taped or photographed while you're still recovering. IDIOTS. Reagan did have a photo op within a week of intestinal surgery. You asked for an example. As I recall there also were photos when he was recovering in the hospital after he was shot. |
