BETHESDA, Md. (AP) President Bush was found in good health and pronounced "fit for duty" after an annual physical Saturday that also showed that the 58-year-old chief executive is now, as he conceded, "a little overweight."

"I obviously have gone through a campaign where I probably ate too many doughnuts, if you get my drift," said Bush, who pledged to drop some weight in the new year. "But other than that, I feel great," he said upon leaving the National Naval Medical Center outside Washington. After the checkup, the President stayed at the medical facility to visit privately for about two hours with Marines, sailors and one soldier recovering from injuries suffered in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Enjoy your daily dose of Dubya!

QUOTE OF THE DAY: "The current Social Security system was created for the needs of a different era. Back in 1935, most women did not work outside the home, and the average life expectancy for American workers was less than 60 years. Today, more moms are working, and most Americans are blessed with longer lives and longer retirements. The world has changed, and our Social Security system must change with it." The President's Radio Address, 12/11/04

Ping -- I've been accorded the honor of posting "the Dose" on weekends. Please wait until I give the "all clear" before posting other photos and images. Thanks.

Well-wishers on the WH lawn greet the President on his return.

The best well-wisher of all, the First Lady, waves to her husband on his return.

If the Prez is overweight, what would you call Teddy Kennedy?

The Swimmer? Well...he's just trying to look like other sea critters. Reminds me of a Beluga whale.
