the truth comes out

Pleasure Boat Captains for Truth


Pleasure Boat Captains for Truth has been formed to counter the deliberate misrepresentation of George W. Bush's drinking record. We seek to portray him as he was, and still is: a "lightweight."

We, the men who were served drinks alongside George W. Bush, have partied with real party animals-- on the shores of Lake Tahoe, up and down the Gulf of Mexico, in the harbors of Kennebunkport. We have seen good men down a dozen kamikazes, and then swim once more onto the beach. We have watched the buzzed and brightest of our generation play beer pong until they were bent double, like beggars under sacks. We have known these party animals, and we have partied with them.

And George W. Bush is no party animal.

Though we come from diverse backgrounds (we are old-money bluebloods as well as the nouveau riche), and though we hold varying political opinions (one of us is even a Jew), we agree on one thing: George W. Bush could not hold his liquor.

The time has come to set the record straight.
