Did Bush take physical?
It seems I keep reading here and there Bush has not taken his annual physical and speculation as to why. Is this true? Does anybody have a link?

Thanks.

3. The mainstream media always reports at least basic data when

the President DOES take a physical. Keep watching, and if he does decide to take one, it will be all over the place.

WASHINGTON (AFP) - After undergoing his annual medical check-up in August 2001, 2002 and 2003, US President George W. Bush (news - web sites) has put the procedure off this year until after the November 2 election, his spokesman said.

Bush, locked in a neck-and-neck race for the White House with Democratic Senator John Kerry (news - web sites), is in "great health" and got the green light for the decision from his doctors, spokesman Scott McClellan told AFP.

"This has been a busier travel period for the president than the previous three years," the spokesman said.

4. Yes, it is true
that he has scheduled his physical for after the election...

5. I don't remember any President releasing DETAILS of his
physical. As much as I can remember, all you ever hear is that "The President is doing just fine."
