Yep - that North Jersey pol who was arrested for urinating on concert-goers in a DC nightclub has decided to swear off the booze! He won't admit to the incident, but has at least realized that he has a problem. I guess only time will tell, huh? Did you miss my first discussion on this? Here it is: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1786278.aspx Here's the newest article on the councilman: http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/weird/Pol_Who_Peed_on_Crowd_.html So, what do you think about his new promise?

men on booze and their mis-behavoirs... I swear that men should have a lock on their zippers so they have to be sober to undo them!

works for me!! I remember once waiting for a friend at a grocery store and this drunk guy came out of the nearby bar and to his car, that was parked next to mine. I couldn't see him, but I certainly HEARD him whip it out and take a wiz! At least he didn't do it on the side of my CAR! I'd've said something then. As it was I remained quietly in my car because I didn't want to ... interupt him... you might say....

Well I guess it's good that he determined he has a problem, too bad he won't just admit he peed on the people. I have noticed lately that politicans will deny anything even if it's on tape that they did do said item. How stupid are these people?

And, not just politicians - a lot of those who have social influence will deny that their hands are in the cookie jar even as they're being photographed eating the cookie. "Manning up", as they say, doesn't seem to come easily. And, those that do are ridiculed.

Sure he is!!!! He is just saying it now but in time he will be doing something else to bring attention to himself.. Sounds like he needs professional help...

Definitely. If he has done an otherwise good job as councilman, then now is the time to fix what's wrong before it goes beyond where it already is.

I don't think he'll be able to keep it for very long because he does have a problem and it's not going to go away just because he says so. He will end up being sneakier about his drinking for a while and then...another embarassing moment. If/when he enters a program, he'll be on the road to recovery.

I agree - it usually takes more than "I'm going to stop" to do it. Although, maybe this was the epiphany that will help it happen. My dad's heart attack changed his abusive drinking habits. He still drank, but not at all like before. Only time will tell.
