<< Isn't booze a depressant >>

I think that it depends upon the individual and the amount consumed. I am a happy drunk. I drink once or twice a week.

I think that a lot of people take drugs to escape from their own misery. For that, we put them in jail. So, because we spend so much on putting victims of drugs into jail, we don't have the money to fix our roads, schools, medical system, air quality, etc.

George Snorter Bush's tougher stand for tougher penalties for unfortunate victims of poverty and drugs shows that he goes along with the flow.
