Ted Turner on *:"has his finger on the nuclear trigger..reformed alcoholic

http://www.accessnorthga.com/news/ap_newfullstory.asp?ID=73301

<snip>

Turner said Bush lacks a true understanding of the world.

"We had a president of the United States who had been out of the country but once before he was elected," Turner said. "There's been a lot since."

He added, "And this guy has his finger on the nuclear trigger, too _ reformed alcoholic, nothing wrong with that."

White House spokeswoman Maria Tamburri, reached by telephone, said in response to Turner's comments, "Iraq remains a central front in the war on terror, and it's important for the security of our nation to have a Democratic Iraq as a friend and ally."

She said she had no immediate comment on what Turner said about the president and alcohol use.

5. And her comment had what to do with Turner's comment about bush?
Geeze, these bushies have a one track mind and NOTHING will allow them to deviate from their misguided thought patterns.
