"Balloon Boy" hurls on Today Show.... Did His Parents Drug Him for TV Apperance? (Vanity)
Today Show ^ | 10-16-09 | Vanity

Posted on 10/16/2009 8:50:51 AM PDT by AngryCapitalist

Most of us have seen the "Balloon Boy" vomit live on the Today Show this morning. My question is this: Was he drugged? Pay close attention to the boy's actions and his general demeanor. Pain killers often cause nausea and vomiting in those not accustomed to taking them. He appears to be in a sort of haze until he calls out, "Mom, I need the cup!", and then the chunks fly. In my opinion these publicity whores slipped their kid a "Mickey" to prevent him from blowing their cover and saying something "off script" again. Watch the video and let me know what you think.

These people need to be investigated in the least.

The kid is sick with guilt...knowing that he was told to lie and with all the attention he’s pressured worried about screwing up and getting in trouble with his dad.

No he just responded to the questioning about his “for the show” comment the way he was coached.

Hoax as well. The other boys just sit there are their brother pukes on them. Normal boys would bolt, crying ‘gross!!!!’.

And fear is limited to appearances before cameras? How about being the center of one of our stupid GD media shitstorms that tear up your whole life?

Of course it was a hoax... anyone can see that the balloon is designed to look like a UFO... and big enough to be seen by many.

Science experiment my butt.

The kid has a better developed conscience than his parents have.

This family may actually top Jon & Kate 8 as the shallowest, most narcissistic media whores and general freaks in America.

Next, the father will run for Congress.

This is sickening. Making your own kid lie on national television. Repeatedly. Your publicity stunt went wrong. Fess up.

When your kid gets sick, you just ignore it, and keep on with the interview?!

This is a real stretch.

Even if it was all staged like he may have admitted last night, come on.

I really doubt that he was drugged.

And why does the media still crawl and walk over each other to interview these hacks? Hel-lo, it was a hoax, and you are running with it as if it was a real story.
