A cry for help?

Rumors abound that George W. Bush is back on drugs. Some cite his increasingly erratic behaviour and weird combination of lethargy and random rage during the first two debates as evidence. Does the president need a little pick-me-up to get through the debates? We at the Panhandle Truth Squad will not traffic in such gossip, even if a list of the side effects of long-term cocaine addiction do sound remarkably like the personality profile for presgeobush on match.com. However, given the Amarillo Globe-News' sterling reputation as a newspaper of impeccable credentials and unparalleled access to the president, today's headline must mean something: President tests lines for debate.
