Since nothing was found ... Waxman or Kennedy will most like call for a full investigation by Congress and subpoena something! Yep those doctors didn't know what they were doing if they didn't find something.

It's the responsibility of the media to look at the president with a microscope, but they go too far when they use a proctoscope.

I wonder if Princess Nancy was invited to view the procedure.

The Doctor got to do what she and he rat colleagues have been wanting to do since the election.

When I had mine all they gave me was a little fenergan (sp?) about an hour before the procedure to sort of relax me. Once in there the doc asked me if I wanted something like demorol and I said no. I wanted to be awake and watch the procedure on the screen. It was a fricking piece of cake (except for the moment when they pumped my colon up a little too much...that kinda hurt). Everybody over the age of 35 should have a colonoscopy. It's a very simply lifesaving procedure.

PS - The doc found no polyps or anything else worrisome in me. However, he DID say he was able to tell I ate alot of spicy food. He was right!

Unless there is some medical contraindication, the usual manner of performing a colonoscopy includes sedation and someone to drive you home. They frequently use midazolam (Versed) which has some amnestic properties and most people don’t remember much about the procedure. The DO however tend to remember the bowel prep.

Long before that (in case someone hasn’t noticed, it’s been hard to tell all along)

he really had his colonoscopy done in cuba, with a fake camp david backdrop. if you watch the video of his screening, youll notice the flag doesnt wave, and there is a second source of light in his anus. it was also an “inside” job.

>>No, I believe they should have shot him in the back of the head.<<

The prosecution was certainly a crock - they misled the jury about the smuggler’s past and his truthfullness.

But, in general, law enforcement should not shoot somebody in the back when all they know is that he is strongly suspected of entering the country illegally and doesn’t want to be questioned.

Now the Prosecution knew the whole story and never should have gone for such a lengthy harsh sentence. The prosecution is also covering up and should be punished.

But I don’t want cops shooting unarmed people down from behind over suspicion of a non-violent crime. So I am not sorry they were convicted of something, even if this particular person they shot turned out to be a scumbag.

I meant you. You said you were not sedated. I was wondering if they would have done that if any polyps were to be removed.

I have become very disillusioned by our system of law and order in this country. My point was that had they finished the criminal bastard off then and there, they wouldn’t be sitting in prison now.

Didn’t they skuffle with crook before he fled? and didn’t he try to escape back across the border? I find no fault in shooting a fleeing criminal. Maybe that’s why I like the Dirty Harry movies so much.

when I had mine , they called a “dreamlike” state and while they removed a number of polyps including a large one, I did not have any discomfort.

However in this dreamlike state the VP did whisper into my ear and I woke up with a whole new conservative attitude. Duh Da Dum Dum.
