Bush and vodka

 
President Bush has claimed to have stopped drinking years ago and yet a piece in the New York Times Magazine (link forwarded to me by a reader) on an interview with his chef includes the following bit:
...(D)id you ever worry that he would be poisoned?

No. Our guys will be in the kitchen, watching the preparation. It's our guys who pick up the plate and serve the food to the president without anyone else touching it.

What about his drinks?

When he asks for a vodka on the rocks, it's our guys who mix it from our own supply that we have to bring all the way around the world with us. Nobody knows that.

Well, now we know.

Um, no we don't. this is actually about the senior Bush. The one who didn't take after Barbara .
