I don't think Dubya's going to be able to weather the storm of controversy that's coming down on his head from the Pleasure Boat Captains for Truth.

Yeah, but only the Pleasure Boat Captains who partied with the Prez know the full story. These Pleasure Boat Captains in this commercial are just out for the publicity.

Just wait until the story leaks about George Bush throwing back cans of beer. Wait until it's discovered that he didn't really throw back full cans of beer, just empty cans he had already chugged.

"Overboard... and Overblown."



"George used to tell anyone who'd listen about the time he rescued a six-pack of Budweiser when it fell overboard a few miles offshore from Galveston. The way he'd tell the story, he lunged over the side of the boat, with no regard for his own safety, and snagged the Buds with his injured hand, which he'd cut earlier that day opening a beer can.

Only, I was there, and it didn't happen that way. George, who had only had a couple drinks, bumped into the cooler and knocked it overboard. A whole cooler-- not a six-pack. Then he just stood there for what must have been a good five or six minutes, like he was trying to comprehend what had just happened. He finally reached overboard-- far too late, of course-- and then immediately pulled his hand back. Something about the saltwater stinging his "wound."

--Sonny Wallace, Skipper, "The Sonny Pleasure Dome"



I just don't see how Dubya's going to wriggle out of this one, Rove or no Rove. Nevermind the revelations that the damage to his liver was due to a congenital condition, rather than cirrhosis, and that hidden by his beer cozy was...

...an O'Douls label.
