Yes, he's so honest he failed to tell his children about his drinking problems, and has passed that baton on to them. When do you think the twins will have another drinking episode? Barbara's "drinking episode" was that she tried to buy alcohol with a fake id. I think the majority of 19 year olds have had a drink and many of them have fake ids. It is illegal of course but I think it distorts the situation to call it a drinking episode. She didn't pass out or throw a drunken fit in public, or drive drunk. Tim

Ted Re...Yes, he's so honest he failed to tell his children about his drinking problems, and has passed that baton on to them. <<<<< I am sure the twins knew Gw drank a lot when he was young. That is common knowledge. The twins didn't know about his DUI which is another matter. Alcoholism is a genetic problem, so it naturally would be passed on. However, as GW has shown, if you are strong enough, alcoholism can be kept in check, just as Bill's sexual pecadillos could be controlled if he was strong enough mentally. When do you think the twins will have another drinking episode? <<<< If the twins are anything like me back when, considering it is thursday, another 4 hrs.
