Bush: Book begins with decision to quit drinking

In this photo released by Crown Publishers is the cover of George W. Bush's book "Decision Points." Bush said Tuesday, May 25, 2010, in his address to a wind energy convention in downtown Dallas, that his upcoming book begins with an anecdote about his wife persuading him to give up drinking.

"George, please" Laura pleaded, "one vomiting President Bush is enough."

George W. Bush and wind energy - pure poetry.

You give him too much credit. DWI Bush never made any reference to a 12 Step program.(I haven't read this article.)

In China from I heard if you kill someone because you were drunk in most cases you were found not guilty of the charge because you were drunk. Bush send thousands of our servicemembers to their death in Iraq and I bet he had few drinks that helped him make that stupid decision. We are not in China, so Bush needs to be accountable for his actions.

Bush claimed not to be drinking - as opposed to being sober - so your Chinese example is moot.

Bush often disappointed me with his "compassionate conservatism"...ie, act nearly as irresponsibly as the liberal Democrats....but BO is making me miss him more every day. Heck, BO makes me miss CLINTON.

"Never trust a man who doesn't drink" How right Mr. Fields was....

I seriously doubt that you or any other con can come up with any examples of "compassionate conservatism" that would be considered a badf thing. Hell...come up with a list of anything "compassionate" that can be considered anti-Liberal.

Not hanging every Democrat member of Congress? That would be pretty compassionate.

That's pretty close to watch list material, but I'm sure you've said worse and are already on one.

All Bush's appointments were in the morning because he was always Drunk in the Afternoon; everyday.

Watching some of his speeches and public appearances while he was president, it's very hard to believe he wasn't drunk then. If alcohol wasn't the factor, then sadly, he was just plain dumb.

How about brain damage caused by all the prior drinking?

Did he write it as an inspiration for his daughters?

Lol. One hopes the Secret Service isn't worrying about guys with ropes chasing around members of Congress. Hint: don't take your eyes off the young Middle Eastern men...:)

The only decision Bush could make was when to tip his bottle in the air.
