MICHELLE OBAMA BOOZE BINGES (Huh? What?)
« on: July 03, 2009, 09:06:11 PM »

Michelle Obama - cracking under the pressure of being First Lady - is drinking way more than she should, friends fear.

Longtime pals have been keeping a close eye on her White House booze intake for months, sources told The ENQUIRER, and her husband President Barack Obama even stepped in when she recently consumed too much alcohol.

"When Barack saw Michelle drink more than she should at a recent dinner, he hit the roof. He told  her, 'This is NOT going to turn into a problem!'" a close source told The ENQUIRER.

"Barack is overly sensitive to the issue because of his own past drinking and substance abuse problems. But he also feels guilty because of the pictures taken of him drinking beer at an NBA game recently."

The President also feels he may have contributed to his wife's alcohol issues by not stopping her from overindulging during their date night in New York City on May 30.

Michelle, 45, knocked back "a glass or two of champagne" while the couple flew to the Big Apple on a private jet, according to the close source, and published reports said she downed two martinis during dinner at the Greenwich Village restaurant Blue Hill.

Yeah, yeah, I know, it's the Enquirer , a tabloid.  I don't wholly believe it, but I'll consider the possibility.

That's binge drinking? Perhaps I should check myself into a clinic or something. LOL.

Yeah, the last time I flew first class, some guy a few seats from me was ordering a Bloody Mary at 8am.

It might have had something to do with the fact the drinks are free up there.

Like I said , it's the National Enquirer, but they have gotten some stories way before anyone else.  Monica and the blue dress, and John Edward's love child were broke by them.

OTOH, I think that almost everyone that drinks has done some binge drinking now and then.

hmmmm.....had a couple of black cherry rum and lemonades this evening....guess I better watch my drinking.  :yawn:

If the National Enquirer wants to start something about Ms Michelle....they need to go after those too small argyle cardigans she keeps wearing with everything!!!   ::)

She watched too many shows of Mr Roger's Neighborhood.  :thatsright:

It's that damn right-wing media.  First, you're having a couple drinks with dinner.  Next, it's binge-drinking on the weekend.  Pretty soon they'll have you hanging from the chandelier in the Blue Room and puking in the White House Rose Garden.

Obama has freely admitted using illegal drugs, smoking and drinking. Not only that, he's been seen drinking since being elected. Where is the outrage is right!!! If you're gonna make a big deal out of things like this, then you have to be consistent. They gave Bush no end of misery.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I find nothing wrong with having a weekly cocktail party.  Unless the First Lady is falling down drunk, of course.

Many times when I would ask how many drinks a driver had imbibed, they'd often say "a couple". That's drunk speak for WAY too many. It makes sense to me that Mickey 0Bama and her managers would only confess to "a couple".

I drink out an iced tea tumbler following the FDA's Truth In Labeling guidelines.  That means the ingredients must be listed in order of most to least.  So, if I'm drinking a gin & tonic or a rum & coke, that tumbler will be more than half full of booze.  I can honestly report "I only had two" drinks (before the blackout).

I face a wall of confusion with attempting a 7&7.
