12. I grew up in an alcoholic family
Edited on Fri Jun-10-05 12:52 PM by Warpy
and damned if the nice guy I married didn't turn himself into a drunk, so I know the signs pretty well. I'm also a nurse with a few years in neuropsychiatry logged on her running shoes, so I know all the more subtle signs.

I'm convinced he is still a binge drinker when he's sent his wife out on a goodwill trip and he doesn't have any corporate shakedowns scheduled. I think this because his neurological condition is continuing to deteriorate. It would have been stabilized 10 years ago if he'd actually managed to love Jesus enough to quit drinking. It has gotten steadily worse, evidenced by the disorganized thoughts, the disconjugate gaze, the occasional ataxic gait, the slurred speech, the obvious facial droop.

This isn't a character flaw in and of itself. The only way to heal the disease of alcoholism is through appropriate treatment, and he hasn't received it. Men who quit drinking through will power or religious conversion or just because they're sick of being nagged have a very poor prognosis when it comes to staying off booze long term.

16. I agree with you about the binge drinking, because of his facial injuries
He tends to appear with grotesque facial injuries after a weekend at the ranch.

3. What is really bad is that you can tell from the pictures that
everybody he is hanging out with is drinking too!

That creature is an abomination to the species.

7. I have spoken with several mental health professionals...
one a forensic psychologist. All are convinced he is mentally diseased as well as a substance abuser.

23. no doubt about it... he is still drinking..
his frequent trips to his "ranch"... and he's already lied about when he quit drinking and it's on film (the wedding reception video in the early 90's)

makes my blood boil everytime I look at this stupid POS's face. worst president in history, past and FUTURE.
