The rest of us weren't so obtuse.

6. His closest, most trusted advisers |
|
are Jim Beam & Jack Daniels. For foreign policy advice, he turns to Johnny Walker & Jose Cuervo.

10. I'm a retired RN and survivor of an alcoholic marriage |
|
and know that he was definitely blotto at the 2006 G-8. It wasn't just the disinhibited behavior, it was the slack jaw, glazed eyes and shuffling gait.
As for this, it could have been early heat exhaustion. Could. Have. Been.
However, his continued neurological deterioration over the past decade has been remarkable and would likely not have occurred had he quit drinking completely.
The prognosis for alcoholics who quit drinking but don't enter a recovery program is grim, no matter how much they claim they love Jesus. They usually just manage to hide the bottles better post conversion.

13. The pic you posted COULD be excused away, but there's another one |
|
while he was in Bejing that was PROOF! He was sitting in the stands and one of his dughters was sitting a bit behind and to the right of him. The facial expression and posture proves he was completely toasted! I saw it on a post here on GU, but I've tried to find it and haven't been successful yet.

18. Look at his right elbow. Looks like a fresh scab to me. |
|
It was more apparent in some pics with athletes and the beach vb women.

21. YEP! That's it! The one I saw must have been cropped because the |
|
only people in the pic were he and his daughter, so it was more of a closeup. I've seen a lot of drunks in my lifetime, and IMO, that look is unmistakeable!
I kinda feel sorry for his daughter. She looks like she's thinking "Oh man, this again!"

15. In several recent pics of him in short sleeves, he |
|
has a huge running scrape near his elbow down his forearm. At some time recently, he took a nasty fall and no one was around to catch him.

22. That expression could have been "Daddy's being an asshole!" |
|
which he was. That finger gesture in China means "You c**t!" plus he was being a typical frat boy jerk in the stands.
However, there could easily have been vodka in his water bottle. The only other thing that might have been going on is heat exhaustion. It was brutally hot and humid in Beijing.
