But Look At What the Baby Seal Clubbers Said About Ted Kennedy
Erupting in the Communist portion of the blogosphere (as opposed to the baby seal clubber portion - does my linking to this make me a fellow traveler?). From Stinkin' Desert Guy:
Rumors are swirling that George Weasel Bush is back on the bottle. Given his performance when sober I'm not sure it will make much difference one way or another.
From shrimplate:
So why is all this occuring? Why does our debt pile up, while our soldiers die endlessly, while our leaders let down those they are sworn to support?
Well, maybe it's because our President is a drunk.
We would not need rumors if the mainstream media were doing its job. Unfortunately, Bush has never been thoroughly confronted about his admitted problems with alcohol and cocaine, among perhaps other things. And it is not known that he has ever sought treatment for these dysfunctions.
A Political Misery, before quoting from some non-mainstream media, has this to say:
Boozin bush Belting Bracers Before Bungling Bigtime?
It would explain an awful lot about the stupidity of his decision making "process."
On a semi-related note, wasn't Hitler discovered to have been injecting methamphetamine intravenously during his tenure as Fuhrer?
And didn't it really screw up his ability to think coherently and make decisions based on rational logic?
Ya know, when yer in the throes of an addiction, nuthin is as it seems and nothing seems as it is....
Monkey Daemon, while acknowledging the source, neverthless is troubled:
There have been concerns from the beginning that Dubya is a "dry drunk" who quit drinking without any kind of treatment, and who is prone to a relapse. This does come from that paragon of journalistic ethics, the National Enquirer, but is troubling none the less...
Misanthropic Humanitarian analyzes this (in a blog ironically called "drunk on bile"):
two possibilities here.
one is that he's actually off the wagon and the president is throwing up his hands as an incompetent.
the other is that this is pure rovian stagecraft, the kind of thing he's so good at, to throw off criticism of his handling of...well, everything. this would benefit them by a) making us appear to be totally unhinged and weasel-crazy. intimidation of iran and north korea, and b) making dubya appear empathetic to the people who lost their lives because he fiddled while rome burned.
Of course there's the third possibility that the Enquirer made the story up.
And there's the fourth possibility that Bush is on something else:
But what I really want to know is what the hell is up w/Bush's incessant jaw twitching when he speaks?....[W]ell it appears that jaw twitching can be indicative of Acute Dystonia and Tardive Dyskineasia-- neuro-muscular disorders that one might see with involuntary movements of the face, mouth, jaw twitching... often induced by long term psychotropics, or tranquilizers....
And there's the fifth possibility, amply illustrated by SteveTsuida.com (I am reprinting just a brief excerpt - the original post details Bush's anti-Muslim actions all the way back to 625 AD):
Next week:
How George W. Bush and the CIA created "Chairman Mao".
How George W. Bush baited Japan into declaring war (and why no one can find the videotapes of Japanese Zeros at Pearl harbor despite the so-called 'bombing runs')....
How George W. Bush introduced Katie Holmes to CIA operative and Navy recruiting poster boy Tom Cruise, all to take media attention off of Iraq.
How George W. Bush is secretly Xenu, space alien archrival of the Scientologists (look for the connection between Xenu's code name in Scientology and Bush's middle initial for all the proof you need).
Well, perhaps Bush will follow Clinton and end up with Tony Campolo. Here's how to tell if Campolo has his work cut out for him:
PRESIDENT: It's Friday, but Friday night's coming!
