Physicist says imaging techniques prove the president's bulge was not caused by wrinkled clothing.

George W. Bush tried to laugh off the bulge. “I don’t know what that is,” he said on “Good Morning America” on Wednesday, referring to the infamous protrusion beneath his jacket during the presidential debates. “I’m embarrassed to say it’s a poorly tailored shirt.”......

A blast from the past. Funny how even some of the smaller details of history seem to repeat themselves.

I remember this kerfuffle. To me it looked exactly like a T.E.N.S. unit used to relieve back pain.

Just because Bush or Powell made a mistake, doesn’t mean it’s OK for Clinton. That’s the message being attempted here.

The media made a big deal about Bush but they won’t cover Hillary’s blatant cheating.

"I voted for MONDALE AND THEN DUKAKIS! I remember quite well the smugness with which I looked down upon Republicans and Conservatives."

And judging from this post, you still do.

Why not talk about the bump in obama suit or clitnons bumps?

As usual, they overturned so many rocks to get a Conservative that they called in NASA. -—> NASA <-—

Yet ask a question about a lib, and they’ll bury you under a pile of insults and mockery.

Hillary, with her typically childish excuses, “Everyone else does it!”.

Correct, this story went mainstream more or less back then. I am sure all we will hear from the MSM is either crickets, or more howls of derision about Conspiracist Conservatives.

Well then, I guess that it means that it was Okey Dokey that sick, old Crooked Hillary Clinton cheated during the first "debate" by having one in her left ear last night during the entire time she was being "interviewed" so that her handelers could spoon feed her their canned answers. You can check out the photos yourself, just Google: #HillarysEarPiece

A number of police officers on duty at the debate location who happened to be acquainted with the technology spotted it in her ear right away and made Hildabeast's cheating public!

She is so evil she can't do ANYTHING without lying or cheating. She lied again to the American people concerning her illegal mishandling of "classified" and "secret" electronic documents. Of course last night her memory was crystal clear; she didn't once mention that she "couldn't remember anything because of her concussion". Isn't that convenient?

That would be high on my list of theories - bullet proof vest.

Ummm...if I were going to conceal something under a suit coat...anything to include a lager, a gun, a phone, a lighter...the absolute last place I would do it is my upper back.

And, it seems that most electronic devices are smaller than a dinner plate in the 21st century.

Perhaps this is part of a bulletproof vest.

not quite:

“I am willing to stake my scientific reputation to the statement that Bush was wearing something under his jacket during the debate,”

no indication of what he thought it was.
No ear piece.
It could have been a TENS unit, for all we know.

This is simply media... covering for Hillary’s use of an in-ear receiver last night so her handlers could feed her lines to her. Nearly as ubiquitous as the popular jejune refrain 7 year olds saying “My DOG ate my homework” is the liberal media cry of “well, BUSH” did it, was responsible for it, or anything but cop to the truth no matter the topic if it will reflect poorly on progressive candidates.

So the new defense of a Hillary being coached is that W had an earpiece too? This is the guy the looney left has been insisting is dumb ever since he first appeared. So when some progressive says W wore a earpiece to defend Hillary get in their face that they are effectively supporting someone dumb enough to need the same crutch...

... Trump doesn’t use an earpiece....

I wonder when the TOTUS will have Obama respond?

Buckle on a bullet-proof vest, so I’ve heard.

The classic response from Hillary’s minions: “But someone else did it too.” Whether or not it’s true, it’s not an acceptable excuse or explanation.
