President Trump hinted Tuesday at a rally in Mississippi that Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., could have a drinking habit.

The president told the crowd that they should do an online search for “Patrick Leahy dash drink.”

“‘How dare you have a beer when you’re in high school?’” Trump said in a mocking tone toward the Democrats who questioned Kavanaugh.

Leaky Leahy the Lush's health "problems" go back a long way. This immediately after the Clarence Thomas hearings in 1991, when the Lush was only 51:

At the time, his wife, a nurse, said it might have been a cramp or spasm. Likely withdrawal and the DTs from not being able to sneak off for a few belts during the marathon hearings.

Drank twice both times accidently: first time I was 3 and the migrant workers on our farm gave me a swig. I loved pop, never got it, thought that was what I was getting.

2nd time I went to a party in college, it was in a guy’s dorm room, drank the punch that was in the red cup (seriously), realized it was NOT fruit punch, put the cup with the punch under the bed and left.

The stuff tastes NASTY.

Mine was sort of the opposite. My in-Laws enjoyed a few beers once in a while. Neither my wife or I drink. Our wedding reception was in the church basement so it was dry. My FIL borrowed a small RV from a buddy and he and some uncles were sneaking out to the parking lot for their side party.

We thought it was pretty funny and didn’t care.

Jews don’t recognize Jesus as the Son of God.
Protestants don’t recognize the pope as the Ruler of the Church.
Baptists don’t recognize each other in a liquor store.

Hey, if the Democrats want to get into a spitting match over college drinking habits, BRING IT ON!

Leahy sounds like he is about 5 sheets to the wind every time he speaks. He and his drinking buddy Teddy Kennedy were legendary.

I believe that Dick Cheney once told Leahy (near an open mike) to go Eff himself. I think that represents what most Senators think of the old fool.

We recently moved to Phoenix, where I can no longer get my go to beer, Yeungling. The Sierra Nevada is an India Pale Ale. In fact MOST of the local brews around here are India Pale Ales. I tried picking up some "Grand Canyon American Pilsner". It was local. It was expensive. It was watery. Why pay $10 a six-pack for the Arizona version of Lone Star Beer?

The search for a new go-to beer continues.

That’s the irony. As a Baptist P.K., we were led to believe that dancing was the worst possible thing in the world.

My girlfriend’s husband, a former NYC detective, was a bodyguard to a NY Congress woman. She often dined with Patrick Moynihan and he saw him face plant on a number of occasions.

There’s a reason why he’s known as Leaky Leahy. How many national security secrets did this old traitorous goat give up to the media in his nearly five decades of screwing the people of Vermont and the nation as a US Senator? Too many!

I can relate exactly to that. I’m 80,have tasted the liquor,but it was awful,so never took a liking to it,never drank it or kept any in the house. Awful stuff. As a consequence,I saved money(that I mostly never had anyway)over the years & have none of the problems associated with alcoholism. I’ve been around plenty who DID have the problems & it is sickening.

do an online search for “Patrick Leahy dash drink.”

OK. I just did. Seems there has been some talk, over the years, of ol' Paddy showing up sloshed on the Senate floor.

LOL!

I think Leahy is constantly slurring. Is he always drinking?

Here’s a secret. Nobody drinks for the taste. Small doses are very relaxing, one aspect is it is an incredible muscle relaxant that works through an almost unique mechanism.
