What's George Drinking?



Is this yet another George Bush flip flop?

The story on George Bush (at least the story told when he is wooing the temperate Christians he calls his "base") is that George Bush hasn't touched alcohol since he found Jesus at Colorado's Broadmoor hotel in July, 1986. I'm curious, then, what exactly it is in Bush's glass as he animatedly regales his fellow G8 leaders. Digby has more.

When it comes to Bush's drinking I think we should listen to the people who know Bush best. In 2000, Bush's best friend (now Commerce Secretary), Don Evans noted that Bush lacked "discipline."

Doesn't America deserve better than an undisciplined alcoholic?
