When did Bush give up drinking?
Edited on Sun Nov-23-08 06:25 PM by edhopper

While attending APEC in Lima, Bush partakes of a traditional Peruvian drink known as a "Pisco Sour" (leave your puns in comments). The ingredients?
2 oz pisco brandy
1 oz lime juice
1/4 oz simple syrup
1/2 egg white
1 dash Angostura® bitters

5. Give what a "rest"? Do you think it's a virgin Pisco?

3. Delicious Pisco Sours. I used to love them, but for the unwary
the foamy, lemony goodness catches up with you and you find yourself tipsy before you know it. Apparently, it really caught up with Bush. He looks like shit. Well, now we know for sure he's not dry.

6. Never. It's my belief that the whole booze for Jesus exchange was nothing but Rovian myth.

7. He has stated publicly
that he quit drinking about 20 years ago. His behavior suggests otherwise.

9. He's a Mean Drunk, But Even Meaner When He's Sober
Better let him stay drunk, for everyone's sake! :nuke:
