I have a hard time believing all this is true. If it is true, then you have to admit that it's pretty damn funny. We're in a recession, which has led a lot of people to abuse the booze, but I never thought W. would be one of them.

Has there ever been a President that committed suicide? I thought not. Gosh, I hope he isn't going to crash and fade.

The man has already been exposed as a cokehead and a multiple DUI offender (you would think that once would be a good learning experience), so I wouldn't see this as being outside the realms of possibility.

There was only one DUI, in 1976. And "cokehead"? Where'd you get that?

Refer to the link I just posted. And at least Obama didn't let the stuff fry his brain and he was just a high school student.

That's 2 DUIs and very sketchy evidence of drug use other than pot. Far from enough to call him a 'cokehead'.

Just so you're aware, Obama openly admitted using marijuana and cocaine in high school. Everybody has their moments.... and before anybody attacks me, I'm just pointing out a fact. I'm not bashing anyone here.....

2 = Multiple And you didn't read the part where he was confronted about his denial of using cocaine to which he replied, "I didn't deny anything". If you don't want to join the rest of the world in thinking he's not a Patron Saint, then fine, but don't ignore the facts and then act like the people that quote them are crazy.

Just because he doesn't deny trying coke doesn't mean he's a cokehead. And yeah he's done drugs, so has Obama... what's the point? Why does it matter?

I don't understand what a prior substance abuse problem has to do with anything. I know alcoholics and most of them aren't bad people.

On a side note if the only people we elected were people that had never done illegal drugs or alcohol I would probably be in public office and I'm pretty sure most of you dislike my politics.:P

I like how I supposedly think he's a "Patron Saint" just because I don't think a troubled past that he's put behind him somehow disqualifies him from leadership.

I'm pretty sure he did more than "try" it.

Obama admitted to trying both cocaine and marijuana. Bush denied the fact that he even did cocaine. Obama also was never addicted to a substance (as far as we know). However, I see your point and I'll agree. We truly can't expect our leaders to be any less human than the rest of us :)

Nope.

A conversation between Bush and an old friend and author, Doug Wead, touched on the subject of use of illegal drugs. In the taped recordings of the conversation, Bush explained his refusal to answer questions about whether he had used marijuana at some time in his past. "I wouldn't answer the marijuana questions," Bush says. "You know why? Because I don't want some little kid doing what I tried." When Wead reminded Bush that the latter had publicly denied using cocaine, Bush replied, "I haven't denied anything." Wikipedia

Still, they say, "Nobody really quits". Hypothetically, if I had a choice over a president that either was once addicted to alcohol or the same president who was not, I would not choose the once alcoholic. Your opinions?

I guess you haven't heard this:

One thing the two did not agree on was the consumption of alcohol. Hitler only got drunk once in his entire life, at the age of sixteen after passing a school exam. He was so embarrassed at being awakened at dawn by a milkwoman on the highway and not remembering the night before that he swore never to get drunk again, though he did have the occasional beer.

Churchill, on the other hand, was notorious for his drinking excesses. The prime minister would have several drinks daily, and once, at the age of sixty-five, lamented about how little time he had left in his life to consume enough alcohol to fill a room all the way to the ceiling.

No, what Bush did was not deny that he did either.

A politician using semantics to soften the blow of an admission?! Good lordy, no!

George Bush offered a "no comment" on it, but didn't say that he DIDN'T do it. Boba Fett: "Bush denied the fact that he even did cocaine." No, he didn't say that. That's my point.

[QUOTE="Neoyamaneko"][QUOTE="Cherokee_Jack"] I like how I supposedly think he's a "Patron Saint" just because I don't think a troubled past that he's put behind him somehow disqualifies him from leadership.Cherokee_Jack
How about the fact that he has shown for 8 years that he can't lead.

Correction: he won't lead the way you want him to.

Because putting the economy into a depression, getting tens of thousands of people killed over a lie in Iraq (Iraqis are people, too), taking 5 days to respond to a national disaster (and calling it doing a heck of a job), and driving up the gas prices to infinity and beyond is top notch leadership....how stupid of me. :roll:

Of course, I am leaving a few things out.

If that is the truth than I apologize for not having my facts straight.

Because putting the economy into a depression [Please explain to me how he did this.], getting tens of thousands of people killed over a lie in Iraq [What lie are you talking about? The WMDs? That wasn't the only reason for the war, and it also wasn't a 'lie'. It was faulty intelligence that plenty of others in Washington believed.] (Iraqis are people, too) [Tell that to Saddam Hussein.], taking 5 days to respond to a national disaster [The biggest national disaster since Pearl Harbor, and one that required more than snap judgement. It would almost be entertaining to see what Al Gore would have done.] (and calling it doing a heck of a job, and driving up the gas prices to infinity and beyond [No, I think we all know who's to blame for high gas prices.] is top notch leadership. Of course, I am leaving a few things out.Neoyamaneko

The real question that you actually believe that he didn't. No Iraq = an extra 2 TRILLION dollars in the economy annually and the Bush Administration manages on the fact that they already know that they will operate on a 500 billion dollar loss at minimum every year. And let's not forget that he is rewarding corporations with bailout money for their failures that come out of your wallet. Gas prices? Did you know that 90% of the consummables that are being used by the troops in Iraq is OIL?

So was FDR and Winston Churchill. Ironically, Hitler never touched the stuff . . .

Learn to format your responses. I couldn't be bothered to sift through it, nor will I prolong this "discussion" as it is going nowhere. You love Bush, good for you. There are people that also think that Glitter and Gigli are good movies.

Yes, modern war requires oil. Surprise!

Hey, maybe since we need so much oil, we should, I don't know, drill for more? Oh, but that would be wrong. Better to just blame it all on Bush.

Wow...I didn't know that Ann Coulter posted on here. :roll:

If the war was actually a justifiable one, then high gas prices is a sacrifice to be made, but since it can't be justified and has done more harm than good, then it's a waste on top of the wasted lives, resources, and capital.

The heck with this....I'm out before I get modded.
