From yesterday's Ron Hart column:

The good thing about a campaign is that if the media do their jobs, we should find out more about candidates (if they want us to). They protect the candidates that they like. It was revealed by Gore only recently that Bill Clinton does not drink. This is troubling to me as it means he was stone sober when he hit on Paula Jones.

So in summary, here are the leaders who do not drink: Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, all al-Qaida leaders, Hitler, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter.

By contrast, here are leaders known to drink: Winston Churchill, Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, Ronald Reagan, Dwight Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Jeb Bush and Jesus.

Maybe not entirely accurate, but cute. More commentary at Hit & Run.
