Does anyone have a link to Bush accidentally saying "erection"?

That was funny as hell when I heard that on the radio today.

3. He's just great, isn't he?

http://www.crazymeds.org/topamax.html

Typical Side Effects: The usual for anticonvulsants. A pins & needles effect that usually goes away after no more than a week or two. Weight loss and appetite suppression - but please note that not everyone gets this side effect. Sodas and other carbonated beverages will utterly taste like ass, so you may as well give them up now if you're considering Topamax. Memory loss, aphasia (weird words coming out in place of what you meant to say or write), word find problems (not being able to recall the names of people, things or concepts), and a general cognitive impairment that has earned this drug the nicknames "Stupamax" and "Dopamax." As Topamax typically makes you really sleepy and has a long enough half-life, you can usually get away with taking it all at bedtime.

For tips on how to cope with these side effects, please see our side effects page.
These aren't all the side effects possible, just the most popular ones.

Not So Common Side Effects: Dry and/or itchy eyes along with assorted vision problems. Topamax also has a warning for rare forms of myopia and glaucoma, so if you get any sort of visual weirdness, have your eyes checked immediately! Fortunately discontinuing Topamax usually takes care of these issues, but you can't let your doctor just blow it off as an eye thing. You may find yourself not able to drink coffee any more, so be prepared to quit the bean. Because it does hit the temporal lobes so hard you can get a zombification effect that is typically experienced only with antipsychotics. Unlike the antipsychotics it's not such a sure thing it will go away in a matter of a couple of weeks. And since the olfactory bulb is wedged in that neighborhood, food in general, and not just carbonated beverages, may not taste quite the same. If you were experiencing frequent, intense d�j� vu or jamais vu you might experience the other as the damaged temporal lobe starts working correctly.

These may or may not happen to you don't, so don't be surprised one way or the other.

Freaky Rare Side Effects: Tongue paralysis. Combine that with not being able to get the right words out and you're all set to apply for the position of village idiot. There have also been a couple of men who started lactating after taking Topamax.

4. I need more details...

was it something he said today, or was a radio
station playing one of his previous bloopers?
What station did you hear it on?

If it's out there, I'll find it.

95% sure he said it. Glad someone else heard it. This was also when he said he was a "Democrat", then tried to correct and said he was a "Republican Democrat". Not sure what the story was at the time.

11. I heard it played on Ed Shultz too. It sounded something like

"How can people say there won't be an erection, uh, election in Iraq?"
