Did George Bush admit to being an “alcoholic”? Or did he just say he drank too much at one period of his life?

I think AA just wants to keep their membership up so they invented this term.

Since you have NO IDEA of what you are talking about why do you feel the need to make stuff up out of whole cloth?

AA is so disorganized they don't even know how many members they have!

AA is not like AARP

You don’t join. You just show up at meetings. There are no dues (except the ones that got paid drinking) or membership fees.

Each group is pretty much its own entity. There is a national org. but the local groups can pretty much do whatever they want.

Not that I know of. I don't care either way.

LOL! Membership. You say that as if there are dues or something. Membership means going to meetings, staying sober and helping other alcoholics to achieve sobriety. How can you have disdain for that?

BTW, I think the people called Bush a "dry drunk" were simply were looking for any pejorative to with which to tarnish Bush.

Bush, in the end, didn't need any pejoratives about being a drunk from the left to describe how poor a president he turned out to be.
