The Peru news agency Andina notes that President Bush was drinking a Peruvian cocktail during the recent APEC summit:

Peru has successfully promoted its national drink "Pisco Sour" during the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders' Summit, Peru's Environment Minister Antonio Brack said Sunday.

1. Again? He only stopped when Laura and the
cameras were watching. Or when he needed to piss. Or when he was passed out.

There needs to be national discussion that we have an unsober addict with the nuke codes. He's far more dangerous than terrorists.

11. I can put one worry to rest--I think Darth handles the codes. That being said, I
don't think * ever really stopped drinking, and he'll go hog wild once out of office.

8. There is no such thing. Otherwise it's limeade. It's the Pisco that makes it
a Pisco sour, like Rum and Coke.

5. The most convincing pics of him drinking were the ones of him coming
down the steps at the Olympics hanging on to at least 4 secret service agents.

6. Having lived in Peru,
and having imbibed far more than my share of Pisco, let me tell that if there is a "non-alcoholic" version of Pisco, well, someone is telling tall tales to Chimpy Fucknuts handlers.

He's a drunk. Look at how he's throwing that down. Not sipping it. Throwing it back.

A real pro.

Man, once again I remember how much I hate that fucker....................

7. Pisco Sour is a powerful drink. When I visited Peru I brought Pisco
back with me :)
What Bush is drinking looks just right ! Eggwhite lemon mixed in and it is frothy.
MmmmmMmmmm good.
He should be ashamed of himself and stop lying to everybody.

I don't think Laura will stay with him long after January.
I don't like her, but I do wish a better life for her than with this drunk.

10. It shows up at every party in Chile too.
It also catches up with you because you don't really taste the Pisco that much in the lime and egg white mix, so you can get really drunk, really fast without being aware of it. I knew one of the new American teachers in our camp get drunk on it because she thought it was lemonade in the pitcher on the table and kept going back for some more until someone noticed she was pie faced and informed her that she was drinking some pretty powerful stuff.

12. That's a strong drink!
I was at a party with some people from South America once upon a time. I tried a Pisco Sour and it pretty much knocked me on my ass. And I'm no lightweight.

13. Well good for him. If he stays drunk until the end of his term he'll think of less creative ways to
hamstring Obama when he comes in, and he'll be less available to darth cheney for meetings.
