Is Bush drinking NOW? More important than TANG, coke, or anything else.

The national media should be asking is President Bush drinking again. We should all be asking.
Questions about whether Bush did or did not take a physical 30 years ago or used cocaine when his dad was president don't matter to most people, but if he is drinking and getting drunk regularly, we all have a right to be very worried.
There is a lot to make one suspicious. Are his facial injuries in the last year really due to mountain bike accidents or to getting falling down drunk? Do we have an alcoholic making life and death decisions in the war on terror? Is it Texas swagger or drunken stagger?
In addition to the facial injuries, there's the incident when he was found passed out on the floor at the White House because he has "choked on a pretzel." There is the slurring of words and his confusion over simple concepts such as tribal sovereignty. How about falling off the scooter or dropping the little dog? Is he a klutz and an idiot, or just drunk?
Someone has to know, has to have seen him. I've seen the photo of him with a beer at the G-8 summit. Why can't some reporter ask Chirac or Gerhard Schroeder, or members of their staffs? At least Carl Rove can't threaten their jobs. I've seen the wedding video. There must be more proof out there if some reporter would just look for it, or at least start asking the question publically.
Bush's drinking is an "open secret" in Washington, yet Newsweek runs a profile highlighting his alleged sobriety as a demonstration of his will and determination.
All those weeks and weeks spent in Crawford away from the press and public eye on a regular basis. Why? Especially with a war going on.
