Colonoscopy

"President Bush to have colonoscopy; Cheney to take temporary control"

It's true.

This is what Moby had to say about this topic

i mean, really?
9:30 on a sunday a.m and i innocently go to look at the news.
and what's waiting there for me?
a headline:
"5 polyps removed from president bush's colon".
i think i just threw up a little bit.
i'm a fan of the aclu, and i love freedom of the press, but isn't there some news that should be restricted or censored in the interest of not making me throw up?
now i have the image of bush's colon(not the former secretary of defense)being colonoscopied.
and it's not a happy image.
it's disgusting.
but i guess i'm happy that the presidents colon is in good shape and, thus, won't prevent presidente el jefe bush from entertaining us with his non-stop cavalcade of ineptitude and malapropisms.
in fact, speaking of ineptitude(or evil, depends upon your perspective)this is the week that presidente bush will most likely veto a bill that extends health insurance to hundreds of thousands of underpriviliged children.
that's a sure fire way to boost your approval rating, veto a popular bill that enables sick kids to have access to health-care.
perhaps gw bush is just trying to recreate the traditional values of dickensian england?
maybe he's a fan of oliver twist, and he just wants to have little consumptive scamps selling violets on street corners instead of receiving health care(said health care would prevent them from selling violets on street corners, and, really, what is more picturesque, a child receiving health care or a child coughing up his lungs while selling violets on a street corner while dressed in adorable 19th century rags?).
well, we can all breathe a little bit easier(except for that adorable consumptive little scamp) now that el presidente is polyp free.
aren't there some details about the presidents life that could remain private?
i mean, dick cheney won't release records about the oil company honchos he met with when determining u.s energy policy but we know that the president had 5 polyps removed?
isn't that, forgive the pun, ass-backwards?
