The same problem resurfaces for President Bush.

Here's a quiz: How do the current conditions on the ground in Iraq have a connection to other problems this President has had in his life?

Yes, they are connected and can be traced back to a problem with alcohol. Many know that when someone has a problem with alcohol, they often go to AA (Alcoholics Anonymous). They are a organization for helping people learn to manage the disease using the famous 12 Step process. The first step of that process is confronting the state of denial an alcoholic first experiences when being confronted by family and/or friends, that they are an alcoholic. It is unfortunate for this President and our country that he never passed the first step of denial. And unfortunately for us, his enablers are VP Dick Cheney and the Republican Senate leadership. Heck, there was even a book written about his "State of Denial" and he still is in denial

We don't have an organization for our Presidents to go to, like AA. The only help they get is every 4 years, when we get to vote them out. But, as we are finding out now, four years seems like eternity, doesn't it.
