New Theory on Bush's Bulge

From This Modern World comes news of a new (well, new-ish) theory of what that bulge on Bush's back is. You may remember back during the presidential debates there were a number of explainations flying about, from radio prompters to Chimpy's own "it was a badly-tailored shirt". Now The Huston Independent Media Center weighs in with it's own explaination -- it's a LifeVest portable defibrillator.

Interesting... we might get the real story sometime in 2010, after he's safely out of office. Unless he croaks first, or the damn thing goes off in public, or something.

Update: Tom Tomorrow has an update on his site about this -- an erudite reader pretty much disputes every point made in the above article.
