Politics Are Bad For You...!

Most of us already know that politics can mess with your head and take the simplest things and complicate them completely beyond understanding.

Now I have actual proof that engaging in politics is extremely bad for your health. I have suspected this for some time, but when you find pictures that validate those beliefs it can be shocking! I must warn you that these pictures are NOT for the feint of heart or for those with weak stomachs...



Now what you are seeing here in the first picture is Arnie before politics, when he was still just a body builder! The following picture shows poor Arnie after the movies, the marriage, and the involvement in politics.

It would appear that we were right from the beginning! Politics are BAD for ya! In fact, they are harmful not only for people on the receiving end of the "help" from the politicians, but it would appear that they are unhealthy for those involved as well!

I just wanted to point this fact out to you this morning, OK? Now I don't know about you, but I'm in need of a fresh cup of coffee for sure!

Should we vote on it?

Hey Ken...it is kinda hard on the eyes, isn't it?

The irony is that I watched the Terminator last night!

Hey, good to have you back with us and you KNOW i'm proud to have you visit!

Catman said...

Actually, I don't think it was the politics. There's something in the Kool Aide they're all drinking.

Have you seen his wife lately? She looks like something out of Lord Of The Rings.

HermitJim said...

Hey Catman...when even the movie stars start looking worse than me...time to move to the country for sure!

Glad I don't dring the koolaide from California!

Thanks for the visit, Catman!

Nice observation there! Another example is our current PM Gordon Brown - he was once really good-looking!! I still hold that any job in an office is bad for people.. *raises hand* - it's 10am, I'm all for some coffee!

HermitJim said...

Hey Kitty...holding public office certainly takesit's toll of folks, that's for sure!

Coffee coming up...all day!

Thanks for the visit, Kitty!

JoJo said...

Good morning my Friend.
Thanks for the eye opener 8-) See we all get old sooner or later at least its just not us. LOL Glad to see he looks worse. I have seen her picture somewhere caught off guard. Yeah she looks bad too. Its karma for the politicos to look bad becuase of the screwing they give us poor folks.
Coffee sure is good this morning. I would like another cup friend.

HermitJim said...

Hey Bulleye...the really scary part of that, is that they might even believe some of that crap!

I did read the other day that Arnie and his wife are building a new multi-million dollar home in NEW ZEALAND! guess he knows something that we don't!

HermitJim said...

Hey Cyg...Actually, Arnie could probably get back in shape long before I could...But I'll always look older!

In fact, I probably FEEL older as well!


Hey JoJo...sorry, don't want to embarrase you! BTW, what is old fart money day? I'm just an old ignorant guy...

As for as the nephew...I don't know about the nice part, but he is family, ya know?

JoJo said...
