With little w.'s re-emergence into the public eye today with a brief speech welcoming the new session of Congress, he may have inadvertently provided a bit of explanation for his conspicuous absence over the holidays.

He was overly made-up, puffy and pasty-faced, looked sweaty and seemed very unfocused, was having more than his usual verbal clarity issues, frequently grinding his teeth and licking his lips, and the entire left side of his face was droopy and lifeless.

In other words, the same exact Bush that showed up for the third presidential debate was back. This man is either sick or is ravaged by substance abuse. We deserve to know.
