Seems to be the word on the street. Who knows?
August 8, 2007 WASHINGTON -- President George W. Bush was treated for Lyme disease last August, the White House announced Wednesday after failing to disclose the problem for nearly a year.
The treatment was revealed only when the White House on Wednesday made public all the results of Bush's annual physical exam. The disease showed up in the "past medical history" section and in the summary along with other skin conditions.
Bush was treated for what his doctors described as "early, localized Lyme disease" last August after developing the characteristic bullseye rash. The doctors said he has had no recurrence.
White House spokesman Scott Stanzel said the disease was not disclosed earlier because it happened after he had his last physical, on Aug. 1, 2006.
"It was a rash," he said. "It's not uncommon for the president to have tick bites when he's out biking."
