Ted Cruz’ parents were divorced? No way should he be President. /sarc
Also listened to Christie yesterday talking about his collgege buddy who had everything and ended up dying of an an overdose of Percoset at 50.
Great story accept one thing....he stated halfway through the story that they (him and his classmates from college) tried to help his friend but “there was just no help there”.
Total BS, there is help all over the place if you want it but it is only successful if the addict/alcoholic has a sincere desire to change. Christie falls into the same trap that liberals often do, they always assign the blame to “society” rather than on the person responsible.
Rehab, AA etc are highly available and successful but only if the abuser truely wants the help.
That sort of wisdom seems to be only understood by those who have had direct contact with it. You would think it would be obvious, but humans have an amazing ability to distort the obvious to fit their preferred explanation. Blame shifting is a favorite human sport.
Yup. They have to admit to it or there is virtually no help.
I got a sister that has been a drunk since forever and she is 76. How the hell she made it this long is outside of me.
