George W. Bush has proclaimed December as Drunk Driving Prevention Month. I despise few things more than official hypocrisy. George Bush was convicted of DWI in 1976. He received a $150 fine.
It is unfortunate that Mr. Bush did not experience the humiliation, loss of Constitutional Protections, and financial ruin that we subject DWI defendats to today. Our President is an ex drunk who went to great lengths to hide his DWI conviction. He was afraid it hurt his electability. Unfortunately, pandering to the Neo Prohibitionists is a political no brainer.
