Once an alcoholic always an alcoholic -but, hopefully with most of the causes for the problem under control. Would it really hurt our country to admit that we have a dry drunk in charge? That’s not a crime in itself, but it might be criminal if the person commits criminal acts - and it sure looks like it, doesn’t it?

I would respect and trust a president who was addicted to drugs or sex far more than one who is addicted to fairy tales and other directives sent from a god.
At least the former, during those times when the “urge” is satiated, is left with a grip on reality with which to run the country. Not so with our present “believer/decider” - he resides in fantasyland 24/7!

The man is worse than an alcoholic. Those with this problem generally only hurt themselves and a small circle of significant others. This dim-wit is ruining the entire nation! The list of his trangressions is far too lengthy to outline here and probably not necessary. The majority of the American people are already expressing their dismay at just how much power this excuse for a president thinks he has - more than the constitution allows? More than the law allows? Not subject to the balances of the judicial and congressional branches of the government? The man is nothing short of a national disgrace, an opinion also held by an increasing majority of the international community. If we are not able to unseat these fools in the 2006 and 2008 elections, I truly fear for this nation!
