The President had his colonoscopy today. It was performed at Camp David, rather than a medical facility. Hmmm, that must have taken some planning. So clearly this was a date they had control over. Any medical procedure that involves anesthesia--managed or not--has some degree of risk. I know I'd like to be around if my spouse was "going under" even for a routine procedure.
So where was Laura during all this?
He (W) spoke to first lady Laura Bush -- who is in Midland, Texas, celebrating her mother's birthday -- before and after the procedure, Stanzel said.
Why wasn't Laura there? Or, why didn't they schedule this procedure so that W could be with Laura to celebrate his mother-in-law's birthday?
I think this all begs some investigation or, better yet, speculation.
Speculate away...
