old article but worth a read- * a "dry drunk"
Edited on Wed Apr-14-04 09:51 PM by AZDemDist6
-snip- "For drunks to function for any length of time in the world, they need enablers. Congress is filling that bill splendidly right now for Bush. As BuzzFlash put it about the recent corporate scandals, "For most of his adult life, those people around him enabled Bush's alcoholism. Now the Democratic Senate is enabling the corporate corruption problem of his administration by not using their Constitutional powers to demand the truth."

Not only the Congress but the nation seems to be watching this happen. No. They are encouraging it to happen. Who knows, maybe we are all in shock, just as we are when a member of our family does something appalling or outrageous under alcohol's bidding. God knows, the crazy behavior by the administration is so wild and unprecedented, covering such frightening unknown territory up ahead that it may be easier to look away." -snip-

1. Note the date of the article - fall of 2002.
Before Chimpy invaded Iraq.

It's a good article. I'm starting to think that Chimpy is no longer in "dry drunk" mode. I think he's back into drinking and/or drugging again - if he ever stopped.
