I've been trying to cope with the behavior of a drug addict, not the drug use and the actions prompted by the need for money and drugs, which were done clandestinely and beyond my purview, but the chameleon-like personality changes, equivocal excuse-making, and blatant lies.
He would be sweet and charming at times, smiling and affable; at other times, he would be dark and ill-tempered, sarcastic and nasty. He made excuses for failing to perform his responsibilities and for the nefarious activities in which he engaged. He lied about what he did and what he planned to do, even though proof that the facts were otherwise was obvious to everyone.
It strikes me that President Bush, who has a history of drug and alcohol abuse and who eschewed a 12-step recovery program, has been behaving exactly like a drug addict, which affects not only his family and small group of friends, but billions of people on the planet.
Perhaps, a Constitutionally-authorized intervention is in order.
