I concur that bipolar may be the most logical explanation. Manic-depressives often self-medicate with booze and drugs. If he really did voluntarily take and pass a piss test before doing these interviews then a manic phase makes the most sense. The disjointed thinking, grandiosity and wild gesticulations would certainly point in that direction.
As for the Che Guevera reference, libs admire those sexy, bearded terrorists because they too would be killing people and blowing things up if they weren’t so addicted to the Good Life... I personally believe Charlie’s claim that some of his fans are emailing him to praise him as the Che of Hollywood. Undoubtedly there are many people out there who consider a life of money, booze, drugs, hookers and all-around bad behavior the Acme of human existence.
As long as Charlie can afford people to cater to him and clean up after him he will never bottom out. I’m sure the MSM has his obit all written out and ready to post.
But, I wouldn't want either... I am just funny like that. Sewers turn me off.
