George Bush, Alcoholic - Part 5Posted on Jun 30, 2006Yahoo! health columnist Patrick Moore wraps up his five-part series on George Bush’s untreated alcoholism with a zinger: “President Bush cannot be of service to his country until he looks inward and surrenders to the fact that he is an alcoholic, with all the challenges the disease of alcoholism carries with it.”

This is a little too much.
Regardless of how much “dry drunks” have in common with each other, the appropriate psychological evaluation would be “sociopath”.
The wanton disregard for human life, both at home and abroad, the pretentious manner in which the “Lord” is marched out as the guarantor of checks that cannot be cashed, and the ability to smirk as people suffer goes beyond alcoholism.
This behavior is not an indication of denial and methods of coping. Rather, it is an infantile enjoyment at being given a false seat of privilege from which one can lord it over those falsely presumed inferior, separate, and not deserving of being included in the same species.

I understand the point to the alcoholic-addict, but what of denial. Denial is the root of addiction and all the pain, ego, power, and greed that goes with it.
Report thisLet Bush admit the Truth, until he admits it, he is doomed and he will never control his own life.
I know that conditioning is the key to addiction and the easy part is stopping the use of alcohol-drugs, but changing how we think and behave is the hard part- we are always closer to relapse then recovery.
