Funny Op-Ed: Bush should start boozing again!

[palomaki]

Just ran across a new D.A. Blyler op-ed, humorously reflecting on the the boozy glory of Bush's youth and the need for the President to saddle back up to the wet bar:

The following 14 years of sobriety inflicted a heavy toll on George's talents. Though he managed to assume the presidency, the nation has clearly witnessed a broken man over the past four years: the mangled speech and problems reading, the bicycle and Segway tumbles, the unfortunate incident with the pretzel. Even his gallant attempts at swagger somehow always come off half-baked and impotent. It's been like watching Popeye walk through a world without spinach tins.

I for one think the American public deserves to see a fair fight between Bush and Kerry for the remainder of the race, each man at peek fitness, especially during the debates. It's time to see that bravado George exhibited when he challenged Bush the Elder to go "mano y mano" after smashing his car into poppy's garbage can. That's the kind of mettle demanded in this uncertain century.
