Breakthrough Medical Technology Hits The Campaign Trail
22Feb2008 Author: Mother Jones, RN
I figured out a quick and easy way to decide who should be the next President of the United States. Let’s just give everyone running for President a brain scan. Think about it. Really, who wants their favorite television shows interrupted by endless political campaign ads? Let’s just scan everyone’s head, hand over the White House keys to the candidate with the best looking brain, and get back to watching Desperate Housewives. How accurate are the test results? You decide.
This is George Bush’s brain scan.
I want to thank Scalpel for calling this to my attention. Enjoy your weekend.

Brainscans for Prewsidential candidates might not be a good idea.

It looks like he has a brain stem. This explains why he is not too dumb to breathe.

Makes me think of the bumper sticker:
George Bush, like a rock — only dumber.

Oh my! I agree. Just a respiratory center in place, and possible a primitive reflex like required for a handshake? Come to think of it, you are beginning to scare me as I think of the endless possibilities of brain scans for presidential candidates. Hmmmm.
