Ever seen the pictures of Lincoln before his first term and at the beginning of the second? It's amazing. Clinton's looks changed, too. There should be a term for this...
There's nothing like the Presidency of the United States for doing a sort of reverse-Dorian Grey to people. It's like taking a super-aging drug or something.
Man, it looks like Bush has spwent the past year in constant drinking and cocaine use. Uhh.... scratch that thought. Where's the "Delete" button on this keybo
I actually take some comfort in this. At least we know he's working. The Aging President Syndrome didn't affect Reagan, cuz he didn't do any damn work. If the internet had been around back then, Reagan would be hanging out with us.
Re: Re: Bush: Before and After Man, these were just over a two year period. Talk about a stressful job - even with the ever-present month long "working vacations". (Tho, to be fair, I haven't seen many of those in the last year.)
Was I imagining things, or was Bush's hair darker than either of those photos last night? Not that it matters. Freaking Reagan had ORANGE hair there for a while. EDIT - I posted a picture of Reagan posing with Team America in 1983 a while back. FWIW.
It's worth pointing out that I've seen Clinton's hair mostly white before, but in the 2000 picture he's obviously had it colored. Which does make him look younger. And the fact that he's smiling.
