Jeanine Pirro Wants the Government to Screen Immigrants to See if They Have a Drinking Problem

We have made it a special point to remain extremely sensitive to those among us who have struggled with addiction, be it with some sort of chemical, alcohol, smoking, whatever it might be.

Some people are simply wired differently and in the same way that diabetics cannot control their blood sugar without intense daily treatment, addiction cannot be controlled without intense daily attention. One day at a time, for both diabetes, depression, and addiction.

Or as they say on ESPN, when an injured player is listed as “day to day,” well aren’t we all.

So we’re careful. And we’re a bit perplexed by Judge Jeanine Pirro taking a strong stand in wanting the government to figure out who has an alcohol or drug problem… when it comes to illegal immigrants, of course. You knew there was a catch. You knew there was a catch because there are many in this country that believe any investigation of an alcohol issue might begin with Judge Jeanine Pirro who – on at least one occasion – seemed to be intoxicated during her show. We cannot prove it one way or another.

But Judge Jeanine – nicknamed Judge “Box ‘o wine” by Saturday night live, definitely wants the government involved in not allowing immigrants in with an alcohol or drug problem. From Rawstory:

But on Saturday Pirro pushed the government to investigate to find out who has an alcohol problem in her latest rant against immigration. “Who has a drug problem? An alcohol problem? Who likes to drive drunk?” she shouted at the camera.

No. Did she really?

Yep. She did.

Peace, y’all
