What is happening to Lou Dobbs and Chris Matthews?

[liberal hypnotist]

I was just having a discussion about Lou Dobbs and Chris Matthews. I think they are related. Both have big heads and pasty skin. But, it is the hair-do that tips the scale. Are they looking like something from "Twilight Zone" with the strange makeup. And what about Lou's new teeth? Does he look like a Pac Man icon chomping on illegal aliens. I've never taken Thorazine but I imagine it must be like I feel when I watch their mouths move and they say nothing.

My wife says I'm going crazy and that they look the same as always. Any help would be appreciated. I can't get an appointment at the VA for a year because I'm so old. I'd rather not go to a therapist if I'm right.

1. I haven't figured out what the deal is with Dobbs and his teeth, and the fact

that he was out a long time for "tonsillitis" or something--does anyone know the real story there?

4. I would bet a buck he has ill-fitting or new dentures. His bite

seems off. I notice some of my home care patients have the same look

Maybe a denturist will weigh in

15. I wondered if had a heart attack, since often there's a change in personality

preceding it. Could be.

Their commanality? They're both Irish.

2. well , Tweety has his drool somewhat under control

and he hasn't been spiiting at his guests lately

3. He still dribbles and spittles. It's just a little more nuanced lately

9. Nuanced dribbling

:rofl:

5. The alien overlords

want us to slowly adjust to their rule. I expect they will gradually continue to morph. :)

6. They are identical twins

7. I think I avoided acknowledging it.

Now it is causing me problems. I dream of the twins coming after me all the time. Snap! Snap!

8. Lou Dobbs had surgery and Chris diabetes.

I understand it's not an easy undertaking to have a tonsillectomy when you're in your twilight years. Lou hasn't been the same since. Same with Chris Matthews, he was out a year or so ago and returned explaining he now has diabetes and I guess a side effect is losing a bunch of weight. The diet, if followed faithfully, is quite slimming, yet keeps you satisfied. My father-in-law was diabetic and was always thin but I remembered his meals were always weighed on little scales and cooked without butter or all those heavy oils. Anyway, Chris seems to have stuck to his diabetic diet and now if he could just get over the spitting when he gets all wound up. No, I think Lou and Chris both are the poster boys for the typical American joe these days. Look at all those pasty old white men on the hill. Disgusting, I tell you.

10. Is this a backhand way of trying to trash them???

[liberal hypnotist]

13. No I admire underachievers who made it.

What are they like when they drink?

11. They're auditioning for some jobs openning up at Fox this spring

12. Dobbs andTweety, bookends to the Tales of the Crypt

Both of them must have attended the same class in Guest Intimidation. It's not so much their physical appearance, hell I ain't no bargain, but the shrieking and the spitting they've perfected in their acts. Add Buchanan to the mix and you feel like ripping off your own skin and running for your life.

But I have noticed that Lou is looking a little like he's stepped out of a 1930's movie with that weird "do" and strange makeup. Maybe they replaced him with an "illegal immigrant."

14. I would swear that Dobbs was drunk on the air last thursday
