Blair rules out official annual prime ministerial health check

From the UK's BBC News:

Tony Blair has said he does not intend to follow the US presidential example of holding a publicised annual health check. The prime minister was speaking during his monthly televised media briefing four days after spending five hours in hospital being treated for an irregular heartbeat.

Asked if he would follow President Bush's example, Mr Blair said: "No". He added: "We have different practices in this country to the United States and, as you know, I don't follow them slavishly in all respects."

Pity....maybe a compulsory brain-scan before election campaigning even starts ought to be mandatory for all wannabe prime ministers


Query: Doesn't Dumbo have an annual anal polyps check-up? Last year's was much in the news, I recall. Maybe that was HIS brain scan....

junior indeed needs to go to the veterinarian and get his distemper shot, as well as the rest of his thugs in the administration.

of his brain that intramuscular shots never seem to reach...

"I don't follow them (US) slavishly in all respects?"

Hmmm. I guess following bu$h slavishly into a pre-emptive War For Profit is preferable to getting a checkup, eh?

What a steaming load of snake shit.

:grr:
dbt

Wonder if Tony Poodle was making a lame attempt at humor?

the alien parasite that's attached itself to his brain, can we?

?

He probably doesn't want a physical, for fear of drug tests.
