NASA photo analyst: Bush wore a device during debate
Physicist says imaging techniques prove the president's
bulge was not caused by wrinkled clothing.
- - - - - - - - - - - -
By Kevin Berger

Oct. 29, 2004 | George W. Bush tried to laugh off the bulge.
"I don't know what that is," he said on "Good Morning
America" on Wednesday, referring to the infamous protrusion
beneath his jacket during the presidential debates. "I'm
embarrassed to say it's a poorly tailored shirt."

Dr. Robert M. Nelson, however, was not laughing. He knew the
president was not telling the truth. And Nelson is neither
conspiracy theorist nor midnight blogger. He's a senior
research scientist for NASA and for Caltech's Jet Propulsion
Laboratory, and an international authority on image
analysis. Currently he's engrossed in analyzing digital
photos of Saturn's moon Titan, determining its shape,
whether it contains craters or canyons.

For the past week, while at home, using his own computers,
and off the clock at Caltech and NASA, Nelson has been
analyzing images of the president's back during the debates.
A professional physicist and photo analyst for more than 30
years, he speaks earnestly and thoughtfully about his
subject. "I am willing to stake my scientific reputation to
the statement that Bush was wearing something under his
jacket during the debate," he says. "This is not about a bad
suit. And there's no way the bulge can be described as a
wrinkled shirt."

Nelson and a scientific colleague produced the photos from a
videotape, recorded by the colleague, who has chosen to
remain anonymous, of the first debate. The images provide
the most vivid details yet of the bulge beneath the
president's suit. Amateurs have certainly had their turn at
examining the bulge, but no professional with a résumé as
impressive as Nelson's has ventured into public with an
informed opinion. In fact, no one to date has enhanced
photos of Bush's jacket to this degree of precision

Because they like taking the piss. It's like the weird grin
Bush has on his face all the time. He knows he's taking the
piss, he knows the whole world knows he's taking the piss,
and to make it worse he's openly smiling/gurning as if to
say "I'm taking the piss" just in case you weren't in on the
joke.

I thought the same thing.

Plus this isn't NASA investigating...it is an
unsubstantiated report of a NASA employee who may or may not
exist claiming he has done something in his own time, with
no proof of anything.

Don't beleive shit like this just because you want to. If
the Kerry/Edwards camp had beleived it was really a radio
device they would have been all over it like flies on shit.
