this man drank a bottle of Jack Daniels every day for 20 years. That will do serious damage to one's brain. It diminishes your cognitive ability and your ability to make rational decisions. Our country was ran by a brain damaged alcoholic for eight years. Compared to W, Cheney was a stabilizing force in the White House. And conservatives have the nerve to call Obama a crackhead because he admitted to trying a little Cocaine in college. (so did Newt Gingrich).

I actually think W is drinking again. I guess I would if I were him, too.

He stopped flying because he didn't show up for physicals as soon as they started testing for Cocaine.

What a piece of crap that man is. He could at least have the decency to stay hidden for the rest of his overly comfortable vile life.
But now he comes out to try to convince historians (and voters) that he was a great man, so his brother can do it all over again.
He's a piece of infertile dirt.

Cenk raised the question, and this is a good forum to discuss it.

The DU, I've learned (to my chagrin), is a Democratic Party mouthpiece.

So, then, let's hear it: why hasn't Obama held this guy to account?

Psychopaths have no problem living with the evil they have done. Because in their mind, they don't have to explain or defend their actions because they believe that they have done nothing wrong.



I cannot put into words the disgust that I have for him, or his family.

That phrase had George W. Bush in mind when it was first spoken.

Only I think he was born with the silver spoon in his ass, because that is where his head is.

I knew as soon as Jenna Bush joined The Today Show she would be rehabilitating the Bush family since she is "likable".

Jenna interviewing Dubya and H.W. is Must See TV don't cha know...

Lots of overly sentimental music playing in all of the scenes to emotionally manipulate the viewing audience.

Thankfully, I don't normally watch The Today Show.

It turns my stomach seeing GW Bush treated with honor and respect rather than with an indictment for war crimes.

I can't stomach hearing him talk.
