Bush's brain:

One of our hobbyhorses is speculating what, if any, brain damage the president has experienced. We're basing this on the acknowledged heavy drinking by Bush, plus the unacknowledged heavy cocaine use. And there is Bush's conversion to Christ and extreme dedication to exercise (principally running). What's the dynamic there? We'll probably not know the full details until 50 years have transpired and confidential notes and records are released. Until then, we'll have to see if Bush's behavior in public can limn a profile of what's inside his head. One person who's taken a stab at it is William Thomas, senior reporter for Lifeboat News, who wonders: IS BUSH NUTS?

We think the essay leaves a lot to be desired, but if you want to engage in speculation, put on your tin-foil hat and give it a read.
