Pleasure Boat Captains for Truth


When George W. Bush talks about his past, he uses the words "reckless" and "irresponsible." He claims that in 1986, after half a lifetime of hard drink and easy women, he finally sobered up-- and he wants us to believe he'll never revert to his hard-partying ways.

But the captains who piloted his pleasure craft during those "wild" years, as well as his fellow pleasure craft revelers, see him in a very different light.

2. interesting, if anyone is doing research on Bush's supposed quitting
from alcohol. Notice that he has never called himself an alcoholic once. Also he did NOT quit drinking in '86, in '88 Al Hunt who many of you may know from Capital Gang was in a New York Restaurant or somethin like that and he had been critical of Poppy Bush in the Republican primaries, Bush who was with his girls and Hunt who I believe was with his won, Bush drunkly said to Hunt something like you are a motherfucking liar or something like that, alcoholism doesn't end because you claim to be born again, takes time, take it from the son of one. Just my spiel, I bet back in the day Bush was a real party animal, just a hypocritical bastard now who thinks its ok to send kids away for small amounts of pot and to ruin their college futures.

3. Isn't Al Hunt the husband
of Judy Woodruff? I think that may explain why she sucks up to Bush so much, sort of like a whore who likes being smacked around by her pimp (sorry to sound sexist).

I know what you mean about having an alchoholic father. Mine never admitted to being alchoholic, even though he was hospitalized a number of times and had to take early retirement. He ended up dying from it.

Frankly, Bush looks to me like he's been hitting the sauce pretty hard recently. I guess he has good reason to.:)

4. Yeah I believe he is
Mine just admitted it before my birthday this summer. He had his brothers and nephew who is like a brother to him over and well me and my mom and two brothers went and went out to eat because he thought we would embarss him and its a seldom event that he gets to hang with all his brothers, so when we got back from the movie and dinner, he was drunk and was being sort of an ass to me and my brother, and I called him on it, and we sorta got in a verbal fight. He later felt bad the next day and ever since has been on the road to no alcohol, he drinks NA I know its bad but its a hard habit to break, and its worked for my mom's dad who is also one. Nah, you didn't sound sexist, its a valid comparsion. Oh I bet bush has been drinking lately, he's gonna lose so bad.

5. Good luck on your dad
I hope he is able to lick the alchohol problem. Admitting it really is the first step.

It truly is hell to watch someone go through the end stages of that disease.
