Poll: Does G.W. Bush's former addictions to drugs and alcohol affect your vote

[4824guy]

Simple poll, vote yes or no.

Does G.W. Bush's former substance abuse problems or issues affect your upcoming vote in the Presidential election

 

[BigKev]

Yes, and I think he's an idiot as well .. but my opinion doesn't count anyway, I'm Canadian.

 

[MrChicken]

No, the word here is former.
I dont have any evidence that he has continuing drug problems, or a past drug problem.
As for alcohol, been there done that myself, I certainly cant hold that against him.

 

[4824guy]

Poll is now up.

 

[ToBeMe]

No, again, it's FORMER use! At least he didn't say...."yeah, but I didn't inhale!" Besides, that treeman algore is worse IMHO.

 

[Monel Funkawitz]

Yeah, and like Gore has not done any drugs.

It does bother me some. I can understand someone of Bush and Gore's ages having smoked some pot or even trying some speed or a hit of acid when they were of high school or college age, but Bush's situation was different. It was cocaine, which I think you have to be pretty stupid or arrogant to even try, and it was when he was well beyond his late teens or early twenties. I know he wouldn't answer the question about how long ago he had quit, but from all I've read, it seems to have been as late as his mid-thirties. It's not that big a factor, but it does bug me a little, especially every time I hear him *sniff*.

 

[squirrel dog]

No it dosent bother me,not near as much as all the lying Al Gore does.Al Gores' lying all the time is what bothers me .I hate a lier like Al Gore.

 

[abracadabra1]

no they all did it so it's inconsequential

Clinton getting elected twice should be proof that character and judgement are no longer requirements to hold the highest office in the world! :|

Ronstang:

Clinton getting elected twice is proof that you can't judge character and judgement in a presidential campaign... plus Americans must be blind P (or guillible... )

Isn't "addictions" a little strong.

In any event, we put up with slick willie and his foibles so what the hey.
