The Totally Frivolous Biden/Botox Thing

[corplinx]

It has no bearing on his fitness to serve as VP or President. I just want to know, was that botox or camera/makeup? The tightness of his forehead annoyed me during the debate.

Its completely frivolous and has no bearing on his fitness to serve. I just noticed that some other people noticed as well as I did during the debate (from searching various forums) and I wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy. I was at first reluctant to bring it up because of the Kerry Botox fantasy some right wing blogs circulated back in 2004.

One of the more unusual judgments on the debate.

I judged Palin's hair and makeup as well. Superficial things are picked up on when you watch a debate on TV. Of course, my mother was a beuatician and my father was a railroad worker. So trains and appearance are things I notice. I guess that either my camera feed was bad and showed smoothness where there was none, or that nobody else noticed.

However, I did notice from a quick google search that there are other people who had the same impression that I did. However, many of them could just be WorldNetDaily readers who thought Kerry had botox because of weird angle/lighting in one AP photo.

During the first view minutes of the debate, I honestly thought
that he had a face lifting in the past.

Fair enough, but it has the makings of a song by The Doors, The Animals or Leonard Cohen.

I only looked at some clips on the web. I do see what you mean about his forehead. But I dunno.
