(3,426 posts)are called to attention in public domain. His father you see was a bar tender. When an alcoholic
is trapped in alcoholic denial ,it is a sad state of affairs to witness.But it is the bar tender and the proprietor of the establishment;s denial that alcoholism is a disease and further claim it is just a choice to drink or not to drink.
So, denial as their crutch they will stand to the opinion that as a matter of choice it is their own damn fault they are the way they are and are in the situation or category they are trapped within.
And so the bottom line is all about profit and gratuities.
If you think Boehner is on vacation ,think again.
At the end of the day the bar tender adds it all up in the till and marks it all down. so the bar tender took in a good amount for the proprietor is paid a wage and lines his or her pockets with the gratuities laughing all the way to the bank.
The bottom line is this, you don't have to drink alcohol to be an alcoholic .Boehner was born over the legal limit. His vacation home is in the bar where all the business is conducted.and that is just where he goes to work.
Profit and gratuities is what he works for. As far as the patrons go, it just doesn't matter how drunk you get or are,just so long as you have a job.Those that don't,are on the outs and should just stay there or stay out.and you can bet that point of view was drilled into Boehner very early on.
Boehner's constituency loosely connected as it may be. Either in with it,or in the outs .
It a fairly simple equation really, although it's roots run deep through historical passages.
So yea, it was a crappy thing to say-and in fact it stinks, but what would you expect form his type ? Boehner is what he is and he was born that way.And as a matter of choice he will not change the way he thinks or is.
