His thinning hair makes him look significantly older. I hate getting old. I still get carded fairly regularly. How old do you need to be for that to stop? Or does it? Are there enough people out there that just card everyone?

George W. doesn't get carded anymore.
if I'm with my kids I don't usually get carded.
I actually don't think I've been carded once since I moved to TX whether Im with them or not.
Me and George should go out drinkin' some time. I don't know how often he makes it down to Houston... guessing the Bushes were more Dallas-folk, even though the airport here is named for George Sr. Crawford, TX is about halfway between Hou & Dal though.
Did I ever tell you about the time I got to shake his hand at an event in Michigan? it was for lawsuit reform. (yuck.) my uncle was one of the speakers at his event and we all got front row seats.

Looked like Obama and the first lady thought it was funny.

Yeah, for a little bit. But then they go back to somber. Entertaining little clip.

I remember when my Dad was at my brothers funeral back in 2004. He acted similarly. Soon after, diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Never know..

to me it looked like they were initially annoyed, then smiled awkwardly in the way people do when someone nearby them is acting like a jackass, and they know everyone is looking at their reaction.

Alzheimer's is a terrible disease...sorry. Also, sorry about your brother. A parent should never have to bury their children.

I think that entire moment is awkward. The hand-holding, the song ... all just odd, so GWBs oddness oddly fits right in.

Thank you. I wouldn't be shocked if George W. is suffering from something of that sort. Before my Dad passed I spent 9 years taking caring of him, each day, and you pick up some mannerisms. On how they behave etc. A somber moment like in Dallas, you don't sway like that.
Just eerie because it was the exact way my Dad acted.

To be fair to the old guy, the first time I ever laid my hands on a hot black MILF I got pretty excited about it too.
How would Alzheimer's make a W any different than he was when he was president?

I doubt he looked happy at a funeral. I suspect anyway.
