Also, weren't there pictures of Bushie drinking beer at a G8 summit in Germany? Or was that supposed to be nonalcoholic beer?

Has anyone else noticed that for the first time in history we have a non-sworn-in president? Never before has the President-elect had to start working so hard before he's sworn in.

I mean, did anyone really give a frak about what Bush said in regards to Mumbai?

Lois Griffin was right...Babs Bush did hold Georgie under the bath water too long when he was just a wee one.

@LurkinMerkin: I agree with this entirely. It's so weird. It's like when you give notice at your job and you just don't give shit anymore. But he's the freakin' PRESIDENT!!!

I wonder how all those religious right values voters feel now?

There were actually a lot of reports that Bush got riproaringly drunk at the Olympics. And there were photos of him stumbling all over the place. And there was that episode where he purportedly passed out and cut his cheek when choking on a nut when he was really drunk.

He is s a secret drinker just like Obama is a secret smoker.

@The King of the Puppy Bears:Wasn't it a pretzel? Anyway, Bush appears to handle drinking very well. It certainly does not change the way he speaks.

@komowkwa: It was a pretzel. And I've always thought that was from drinking. Who the heck chokes on a pretzel and ends up on the floor with the dog staring at him when he's stone cold sober? Bush, I mean, not the dog which at the time was Spot.

Well it could be worse.

Also, he has been "off the wagon" for a long, long time. As in wagon? What is a wagon?

I drank a bunch of Pisco in Peru, on my twenty-fourth birthday. The next day it was flat Inka Cola and a greasy meal at a chaufa for the hangover. That stuff can pack a wallop!

@BookishLatkeish: Yeah. There's nothing like barfing up some ceviche because you're so piss drunk on pisco, to make you say those familiar words: "I will never drink again."

That's sad. He's a bad president, but alcoholism isn't funny.

In world history, a dry drunk has never had a better excuse to get shellacked than having to avoid an international incident for one's country, especially if that country hates you like poison.

I don't think he fell off the wagon. I think he jumped off, naked, and swung on a chandelier.

Not even vodka goggles could make his tenure as The Decider look good. But hey, if you are literally the most hated living person in the world, might as well try!

Bush has been drinking for a while. I remember him having non-alcoholic beer and that's drinking too. Bush is a filthy alcoholic. And not that nice either!
