How? By getting shitfaced drunk by 8 in the morning?

I knew that Chruchill drank Whiskey,, Champagne and Brandy, in a regimen that started at 11 a.m. But, I had never read that he was shit faced drunk at 8 a.m. Since I don't drink, I know you are not talking about me. So, I researched your allegation. I could not find a specific reference to regular drinking early in the morning. I found more than one accounting of his drinking a weak Whiskey and Soda at 11 a.m. Followed by Champagne at 1 p.m. lunch. That seems too be the consensus concerning the start of his drinking. I did find one biographer who explainned that, in volume, he did not consume more alcohol than he could metabolize on most occasions, and did not routinely get drunk. I don't know how he could have determined this. But, many have tried to explain how he drank so much and still functioned so well. I suspect that he used alcohol as a decoy. Card players try too convince competitors they are drunk, by always having a glass of alcohol close by.

Well, 8 is a little overboard, I think, but I know he drank not long after waking.

Naw, some big time drunks can pace themselves and be competent, mostly.

Good luck finding much truth about him besides gushing propaganda. Far as i'm concerned, every major WW2 leader were murderous civilian targeting pos.
