How long will Michael D's hip last?

MidlandsM

So, we got Michael D as our first citizen, but I saw him during the election limping a bit, and wondered how long will his hip last him over the 7 year term?

Do they have a stair lift in the aras?

I give him till Christmas....... Horrible, puss-filled accident on the back stairwell in the áras...

Spontaneous human combustion would be fun.

I heard he's a fierce man for the Guiness and baked beans.

He can get himself a shiny new hip and be running marathons if he wants.

Franklin D. Roosevelt couldn't even stand up or walk unaided, but he made a fair fist of leading the USA to victory in the biggest war it had ever fought, so don't worry too much about Michael D's hip.:rolleyes: In fact, I think the limp is only a temporary result of a minor accident he had.:)

He won, leave him alone and show him some respect.

Hip replacements are fairly common these days anyway. No bother to him.

At least he didn't trip himself up unlike some other candidates, bad hip or not.

If you did you wouldn't have put up this stupid poll.

AFAIK his leg was broken last year when he was on an aid mission in Columbia (I think?), so chances are it's still healing.

He must still have great energy in him to be able to tour and campaign all across the country the way he did in the last few weeks. He's not on his deathbed yet!

He doen't need hips, he has Luke Skywalker.

I'm not a labor fan but i'm still really happy for him.He's perfectly qualified for the job and intelligent.You could never honestly begrudge him when he seems like such a nice guy.

He's a lovely man, if I were 70 and gay, I'd love to be his lover.

If Norris whose been on disability this past few years is able for the Aras, why not Higgins?

At least Higgins can get the free bus pass to get around :P

Is his age really still an issue for people? I wouldn't consider a man of 70 to be a coffin dodger just yet.

Is that you Norris ?
Leave Micky D's aras alone.

I reckon he'll break it next July at Olympic Stadium, Kiev whilst jumping up and down as Ireland win Euro 2012.

jimthemental

THe OP just told me who won. Damn spoilers, I was gonna watch the highlights of the entire campaign but I don't think I'll bother now.:mad:

There's only one way to find out if his hip's ok: make him do the Krypton Factor assault course.

You should respect everyone and anyone until they give you a legitimate reason not to Chuckie...

It's a multiple choice poll.

His hip to be squared.
He got it 3 years ago, i believe/am proclaiming for the purpose of this post.
That gives it a 6 year solid gurantee, while in his role as president; the final year will be of great interest to hip watchers.
Not that that should preclude him from going for a second term.
It's not like having two working hips is a prerequisite for the role of presidency, as far as i'm aware.

Theres nothing wrong with his hip.
He's in there dancing like John Travolta already.

When Norris calls round with his house warming present, he'll have two sore hips (from the riding :rolleyes:)

ANXIOUS

He slipped while in south America and broke his knee cap. He walks with the aid of a brace, he also has a severe limp sometimes.

Yes, we gathered that.

I thought he had a new ivory hip fitted in 1890

zenno

his hip will last a long long time as he will be chauffeured most of the time plus he will be getting from A to B in his newly acquainted Learjet.

crazygeryy

who gives a toss.hes too bloody old to be president anyway.

Ever seen footage of a hip replacement operation? It's not a delicate procedure. Power tools to drill the hole in the femur, then whack in the implant with a bloody great big hammer. The human body is pretty tough at any age. :eek:

Michael D, will always be hip, a hip cat for the new millenium. They called him a beatnik in the 60s but he beat them all today.
