I agree that it's another story and a tragic one at that. I just don't think it's a vice. If Bennet makes big bucks and likes to blow it at the slots while getting drunk that's his choice.(No, I'm not a libertarian).

Please tell me what possessed you to add the little bit while getting drunk , never did this article or anyone ever mention Bill Bennet getting drunk while playing the slots.

I did not mean to infer that Bennet was drinking. Perhaps I should have been clearer. My bad. I meant to imply that, as a grown man, he should be allowed to plunk down his hard earned cash and knock back a few cocktails without any hypocritical liberal busting his chops.

Last time I looked, it was a free country and gambling and drinking were legal. I should have said "I would not have a problem IF he decided to drink himself silly while gambling."
