DRUNK BUSH VIDEO CLIP........
Perhaps some have seen this clip, if not sit back and enjoy watching the dumb shit.....keep in mind this video was shot in 1992, six years after bush found Jesus and "got off the bottle".

Move-On or someone should use this in one of their ads.....

Here it is, courtesy of The Smoking Gun....

If George W. Bush ends up in the White House, The Smoking Gun would like to be the first web outfit to formally offer Dubya an artifact for his future presidential library. The Republican's wacky performance in this 1992 wedding video excerpt--shot years after Bush went cold turkey in July 1986--needs to be preserved for future generations.
The video was shot at the August 29, 1992 wedding of Jamie Weiss, the daughter of Dubya's close friends Mike and Nancy Weiss. Mike, a Lubbock, Texas lawyer and CPA, was Bush's campaign chairman during his first political race (an unsuccessful 1978 congressional bid) and was one of the Texas governor's earliest political appointments. Nancy, also a Bush appointee, had a prime speaking slot on the final night of the Republican convention. She told the crowd, "I wish you could see how he reaches out to people, teasing those who can take it and protecting those who can't."

Indeed, what a teaser!

When cameraman T. Patrick Murray filmed Bush during the wedding reception at a Lubbock country club, the future governor took some rambling--and we presume good-natured--swipes at the newlyweds, the bride's parents, and her brother Kelly (Bush was being quizzed by a member of the bridal party). We love the part where teetotaler George actually disses two of the Weisses for supposedly not drinking or smoking. And as for those weird Don King-like "only in America" cracks--not to mention what's in that glass--your guess is as good as TSG's.

3. Wish more folks would be honest about the guy - I mean how
many truly like him, he is so obnoxious!

Did ya'll read the Salon article about his missing year - The wife of the man he was working for, Linda Allison, gave Salon an interview. It is great, she said he did not serve in the guard while working in Alabama for her husband and the Blount campaign.
