Having formerly been in the field of rehabilitation counseling, I must say you can only respect a person who is able to a) recognize they have a drinking problem, b) take steps to resolve the problem, and c) succeed. I may not like GW as a president, but he can only be commended on this particular point - the same as anyone else in this situation who has the strength and conviction to do the same. |

So, what you're saying then is that if Bush still drank it would explain his political decisions by virtue of the fact that only a person operating with a diminished capacity (in this case due to alcohol intoxication) would make the decisions he has made? Yet, there are a great many people here in the US that still support and agree with his policies, so are you suggesting that roughly half the population of the US is operating under a diminished capacity for whatever reason (alcohol, drugs, mental defect, etc.)? There is never going to be any unanimity on any political leader's policies, either good or bad. |

Well...not exactly. The fact that Putin arrested a major funder of the opposition and the officers of the energy company the funder ran, leaves room for major improvements. ANOVA |

I guess my
wasn't noticed.Truth be told, Russia is in a very sorry state. Most of this may be from the fact that the Ukraine split off of Russia, but the population of Russia is falling and is actually below that of the US now! The major problem is that the Russian government isn't forcing its population to stay in the country anymore (a natural effect of communism). |
