It sure as hell doesn't work, if he does.... Ooh... who would want to be close to those "pits...?"

4. True

But you should see me sweat. OMG!!! I sweat just walking to my car. I'm fairly thin too. Oh, and I'm coke free. ;)

He's probably just a sweater. However, given his past, the coke theory ain't too bad either.

[davsand]

20. Had he just been taking questions?

I have got to wonder if maybe he'd been taking questions or something and was maybe kind of nervous.

There is a term used in news circles and some performing circles called "flop sweat" and it is applied to times when you are nervous as all get out and the sweat just pours off. Maybe the shrubster was feeling a bit stressed there?

You gotta figure any questions at all probably send him into panic mode given all he's done and all they've tried to hide...

addded on edit:

I remembered this article that specifically meantions flop sweat in the context of the WH:

Flop Sweat in the Oval Office
by the Pundit Pap Team
Sherrie Gogerty | Jane Grice

May 30, 2004 (apj.us)

-- The name most conspicuous in its near-absence from the weekend shows: Ahmed Chalabi.

Mark our words -- there are a few people at the top of the Pentagon who rue the day they heard that man's name. Some of them received bogus intelligence from Chalabi about Saddam Hussein's nonexistent weapons of mass destruction. And thanks to information from European sources, it has now become apparent that someone -- probably in the Pentagon -- passed along defense secrets to Chalabi, who in turn passed them on to Iraq.

Can anyone say, "Treason?"

Sure looks like that to us.

Buzz in the Beltway this afternoon is that some high-powered criminal attorneys may have some new clients -- if only on retainer.

And you can bet your bottom dollar that just a week after officially jumping the shark, there are huge puddles of flop sweat in the Oval Office...
