bu$h* Says Faith Helped Him Beat Drinking

What a big ol load of horse manure.

BALTIMORE, Md. (AP) -- President Bush on Tuesday referred to his former struggles with alcohol as an ''addiction,'' a blunt characterization of his less disciplined adult days before a reliance on faith help him turn his life around.

''Addiction is hard to overcome,'' Bush said in speaking at a faith-based center that helps former prisoners get job training and other help.

''As you might remember, I drank too much at one time in my life,'' Bush said. ''I understand faith-based programs. I understand that sometimes you can find the inspiration from a higher power to solve an addiction problem.''
