shrub used cocaine AFTER he found jesus |
|
shrub repeatedly has told the story of how he found jesus and swore off drink at the age of 40. he turned 40 in 1986, during reagan's second term.
according to kitty kelly, shrub did coke while poppy was president. this means he was at least 42 years old.
my point is not that he's a liar, although he is. my point is not that he's got a coke-addled brain, although he does. my point is not that he might still be using, although he might. my point is not that we can't believe his claim to not drink, although we can't.
my point is that he has betrayed the christian community and claimed to be clean when he was high, a role model when he was a drug addict, and a good christian man when he was, in fact, no such thing.

Jesus told him a little blow would be OK; it would heighten his spirituality.

29. Do Christians regularly blow off weekly service? |
|
regaring the cocaine use- how the hell could anyone prove this? It's a non-story based on heresay.

to further tempt me into more cocaine abuse. The Lord works in mysterious ways...even though I backslid, I became an even stronger Xtian thru the process. Praise Jeebus!" - bush the a-hole

8. Maybe he found Jesus through the coke (cocaine psychosis) |
|
Cocaine psychosis is a horrible condition that results from frequent abuse. Symptoms include overagressiveness, irritability, paranoia, attention-deficit, and, in its more extreme forms, hallucinations regarding sight, smell, and sound. Maybe Bush actually does believe he hears the voice of Jesus in his head. I know he thinks rainbows communicate with him (the rainbow speech in Romania).

25. No, Swaggart never regained the same popularity he had before |
|
and, while there will be some deluded dumbasses that will believe in Bush right or wrong, this WILL erode his support.

18. Even 40 is pretty amazing. |
|
A drunk and cokehead at 40, and President of the United States 14 years later. It amazes me that out of all of the whip smart, upstanding Republicans in this country, this awol drunkard coke snorting C-student loser was the one anointed to carry their banner. How can they stand him?

20. Youthful indiscretions - AT 40 ! Good grief. |
|
That kind of crap drives me buggy. Youthful mistakes made after age 25 aren't youthful mistakes, IMO.

24. He's what's known as the Dummy |
|
No ideas of his own but can pretend to really care about whatever he's ordered to sound like he cares about.
He's a front man for an unusual coalition of fundies, corpocrats and international crusaders. He's all things to all people, a smirking cipher with an oleaginously sincere voice.
It's bullshit to diagnose from a distance, but I wouldn't be surprised if Bush is what the shrinks call a borderline personality, someone whose grip on reality is tenuous but who is not truly psychotic or dissociated. He can fake sincerity because he genuinely has no affect, no real self. He honestly believes whatever it is he's saying at the moment he says it, and he can't be made to feel guilty because he has no conscience. He also can't be made to feel embarrassed about anything. When he says something horrible about others and it hurts them and they get angry at him, he honestly does not know what he did wrong or that he even did anything wrong. It's all a game to him, but he can pretend that it - and he - are deadly serious.

23. This COULD Be A Problem |
|
While I agree that the real kool-aid drinkers would look the other way if this goon was a pedophile, there are some that this story could really get them wondering.
Drinking is one many still overlook (the friendly drunk = guy you'd like to have a beer with) alcohol, but blow is another deal. Demon Rum is legal while cocaine isn't. Weakness to alcohol can be lonliness or shyness...coke use is total disrepect for authority & the law...you know it's illegal when you do it.
Add this story to the new revelations of Bunnypant's lying about his military history and a clear pattern of pathological lying is becoming too obvious to the most naive...including funides. While many will shrug this off as Democrat dirty tricks (facts be damned) but there will be a segment that will find all these stories just too much smoke...and they won't be able to hold their nose...either voting for Kerry or just staying home.
