Bush has 5 polyps removed during colonoscopy

[spanone]

~snip~ CAMP DAVID, Md. - Doctors removed five small growths from President Bush’s colon Saturday after he temporarily transferred the powers of his office to Vice President Dick Cheney under the rarely invoked 25th Amendment.

The polyps, extra tissue growing inside his large intestine, were found during a routine colon cancer scan performed at the Camp David presidential retreat.

“All were less than 1 centimeter (about four-tenths of an inch) and none appeared worrisome,” White House spokesman Scott Stanzel said. Outside medical experts agreed.

2. Wow, Reagan flashback.

"Most of his polyps were benign." -Dave Barry's summary of Ronnie's presidency.

[Sal Minella]

25. Ever-Sunny Ronnie, when quizzed by a reporter about having cancer, said "I didn't have cancer.

Something inside me had cancer, and it was removed."

Always looking on the bright side, St. Ronnie.
Not bothering to read the final Iran-Contra report helped, too.

3. I certainly hope they changed his diapers while they were at it

I mean, republicons and their diaper thing -- really, it's just TOO much.

4. And their names were

Cheney, Snow, Liebermann, Wolfowitz,and Bolton.....

5. Polyps were named: Hannity, O'Reilly, Lieberman, McCain, and Limbaugh.

Unfortunately, they grew back almost immediately.

6. Well where are Hannity, Limbaugh, Coulter, Savage, and O'Reilly supposed to live now?

I'm sure it's scary. They've known no other world for the past 6 years.

7. One always hopes not to find polyps.

9. The only benign bits of flesh in his body

The doctors left the corrupted flesh behind and intact.

10. They promptly named them John, Antonin, Clarence, Sam, and Anthony.

[AnnieBW]

13. They Found the Weapons of Ass Destruction!

They were buried up *'s rectum, along with Osama Bin Laden.

[Bitwit1234]

14. They can not be looked at and told the are not cancerous

I have had many colonoscopys and they have to wait til they perform the test before they know....unless like bush, his doctor knows everything.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

18. Bush to award himself Purple Heart

Anal cysts and polyps after all are a distinguished mark of courage and patriotism among Republicans.

[VP505]

20. Did they remove

that polyp between his shoulders, it looks malignant to me.

[Eurobabe]

21. None appeared worrisome

Too bad, maybe Asshat would like trade places with Tony Snow? He's not nearly as evil (Snow) and look where it got HIM!

[timtom]

22. And I expect them

Some dittohead out there would truly relish those little puppies...

[MetaTrope]

24. Mommy, is that where Republicans come from?

:puffpiece:

[DemGa]

26. If it was cancer they would not tell us

I think that is obvious.

[Feron]

27. In other news...

the sixth and largest polyp could not be removed because it was attached to the president's shoulders.

[riona]

29. I thought more would be happening up there.
