"I quit drinking -- and it wasn't because of a government program. It required a little more powerful force than a government program in my case," Bush said today after signing the "Second Chance Act" into law today a government program to aide recovered substance abusers?
In an interview with ABC News' Martha Raddatz in December 2007, Bush admitted, "I doubt that I would be standing here if I hadn't stopped drinking whiskey, beer, wine and so on."
The president told ABC News he quit drinking over 20 years ago -- cold turkey.
"I had too much to drink one night, and the next day I didn't have any," Bush said. "The next day I decided to quit and I haven't had a drink since 1986."
This picture is from last summer? You really have to wonder about this guy?

Ridiculous, no?
Bush has been photographed many times during his terms hoisting a drink. Oh Georgie, liar liar, pants on fire!
I talked to my sister yesterday and she is voting for McCain. I couldn't believe it. I fail to see why anyone would vote Republican after the last eight years.
What a Dork. But sometimes I do feel sorry for him. What is a dumb Texas kid, who got a pass from his father from ever doing anything hard, doing in the hardest job in the world? It is enough to drive one to drink.
Did you hear him today about the halt of our troops in Iraq. I will be so glad when he leaves.He likes to give head(beer of course)
He pours beer about as well as he runs the country..
He has to substitute something when the coke runs out...
Oh yeah....and I have given up Wendy's cheeseburgers and Little Debbie snack cakes. He hasn't had "a" drink since 1986...he's had a shitload. I have always been suspicious of that "choking on a prezel" incident.
reguards yer what a dumba-- pal bugg
Oh my! So that YouTube where he really seems drunk is true?? The one at the press conference or something... And, he's our president until next January?

That's some fizzy "ginger ale"!!!!!!
I just wanted to pop in and say hello before going to bed. There is never a lack of things to talk about with bush as president.
