Bush dynasty ex-wife set to spill the beans
By Steve Bloomfield and Sophie Goodchild
30 May 2004

A new book on the Bush dynasty is set for release just six weeks before November's knife-edge presidential election. The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty by Kitty Kelley will have an initial print run of 500,000, and the main source is believed to be Sharon Bush, the ex-wife of Neil, President George W Bush's wayward brother.

...

The book could be the most damaging yet for the President, with the publishers, Random House, promising it will "cause controversy".

[Nlighten1]

1. Oh man...

What are the odds this woman will jump from some building some time soon?

[physioex]

4. Hmm...She is probably very pissed..

At this point she may not care about the consequences...

[salin]

18. Indeed... she was going to write this.. then NOT...

we figured she got paid off .. or something... for this to be moving forward again suggests even MORE pissed off than before.

[Just Me]

68. Is she PO'd or has she been encouraged to exercise the convictions

of her beliefs? My guess is the latter because people are generally shaken and scattered by anger,...whereas "conviction" conjures courage in face of inevitable retribution.

All I feel is that,...it is about freakin' time for the smear artists and betrayers to pay the piper. The American people have had their loyalty and trust secretively exploited for way too long. It's time for our people to know that they have been deceived and screwed.

[KittyWampus]

86. Bush's Treated Her Like Shit. Didn't Even Leave Her A House

after her husband acted like a dog.

Apparently Bush women are supposed to just shut up and take it.

She's moved to NY, IIRC.

Down in Texas, society people are too chicken shit to stand up to the Bush family.

[Les BOOGIE]

91. she already spilled 10 pages in Texas Monthly May 2004 n/t

[frankly_fedup2]

38. Probably more like

an airplane crash or the like. Also, it will be Hillary's fault and the dems paying her large sums of money to put the book out.

Afterall, on Washington Journal, when the Abu G. prison abuse first came out, a woman called in, a conservative (and if I'm lieing may I be struck down now); and stated that there needed to be an investigation regarding "Hillery's" trip when she went to Iraq. I swear, I have heard this at least 3 times from different callers.

So these idiots believe that when Hillary went to Iraq (with
Mrs. Dole, and another congress woman) Hillary must have gotten word to the commanders and gave them a list of things to do to these prisoners, OR, Hillary was there taking the pictures.

UNBELIEVABLE!

I listen to Washington Journal everyday. I wish I had the guts to call in, but I know I would just get all nervous and forget what I was going to say. But one thing is for sure, the conservatives that call in obviously only listen to Limbaugh and/or Hannity who make statements and put them out in the public arena with no proof whatsoever. They just throw these little tidbits out there and that is what these fans of theirs pick up. Then they believe they are more intelligent than us, are better Christians then us, support our President and call us unpatriotic for not doing so and stating we are doing nothing but hurting the troops, and that is why things have went so wrong in Iraq. It's because of us Dems.

Boy, they are sure good with the spin.

[agincourt]

58. I do not doubt it one bit,

They'd say she was sleeping with Saddam if they could get anyone dumb enough to believe it.

[dolo amber]

74. Shut UP!!

That is the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life!! :7

So these idiots believe that when Hillary went to Iraq (with
Mrs. Dole, and another congress woman) Hillary must have gotten word to the commanders and gave them a list of things to do to these prisoners, OR, Hillary was there taking the pictures.

*snort!!*

Thank you for making my day! :toast:

(And no, I'm not at all being sarcastic, that is truly comedy gold! :D)

[Tight_rope]

52. Yeah...I can see the headlines now!

Ex-Bush fell from 21 floor after seeing her shadow. :beer:

[Nlighten1]

61. "Experts say she was"

"Suicidal"

[colonel odis]

70. suicidal? history of mental illness?

isn't that why she divorced poor, faithful neil bush? who was driven to an affair with his mother's assistant after years of shouldering the pain of having married a crazy woman? and neil only married her because it was the right thing to do. he believed he could make her happy enough to leave her mental illness behind.

poor, poor neil. his only sin was loving a crazy woman too much. well, that and bringing home herpes after one of his asian sex jaunts.

ok, that and using his daddy's name to further his own non-existent career. oh, and bringing down a colorado s&l because he's got a brain the size of a le seur pea and the ethics of an alley cat.

[yardwork]

75. Neilsie. His mama calls him Neilsie.

How old is he?

[wryter2000]

66. Doesn't matter

If it's going to be released in September, it's already "in the can."

Preorder it and start some major buzz. Maybe we can get that print run up to 1,000,000

[physioex]

2. I have lost count...

As to the number of books and people that have come out and spoke against Bunnypants. Let's hope the message sinks!!

[The empressof all]

3. Kitty Kelly is a Gossip Queen

I would imagine this will be an extremely interesting read. I have read her book on the Royals and although written in Tabloid fashion it was quite factual and fun to read. I can not imagine this will be good for Bush as she will definitely attract a more non-political audience.

[Journeyman]

5. As tawdry and sensationalistic as Kitty Kelley books are. . .

this one will certain be read by a different set of people than those who read Clarke's & Woodward's & Wilson's et al.

[physioex]

6. Every little bit helps...I am not complaining. EOM

[Disturbed]

10. Teflon BushCo?

It sure seems like absolutely nothing can dent the armor.

[RamboLiberal]

22. Different set of people - I think this might help among

the independents and undecideds to either sit out voting for * or to vote Kerry.

And you know Kelley will be all over the talk shows, Larry King, morning shows, late-night, etc.

[dflprincess]

37. I've read the books you've mentioned

and I'll be reading this one too. And I'll enjoy every tawdry word. :evilgrin:

[Fovea]

7. Ooooh, this will cause Deep Pain

but not for me... :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

[crossroads]

85. Just can't wait for this one...

...it should be a best seller...so many *love* hating the Bushes!
:evilgrin:

[physioex]

8. I am curious about their sex lives...

It's never really talked about in the press...

[IthinkThereforeIAM]

26. I'm not...

... as a matter of principle.

[Occulus]

60. I'm not...

...as a matter of life an death. I don't want my neurons to fry.

[Myrina]

27. errr ...uhhh ...

:puke: that's an image I just don't care to ponder. :puke:

[physioex]

30. Welcom to DU...

:hi:

[Myrina]

35. hi and thank you

:hi:

[TiredTexan]

56. You made me choke on my water.

Welcome aboard.

[struggle4progress]

69. More evidence that Republicans should abstain!

[kalian]

9. "assisted suicide" anyone...?

:eyes:
This lady is taking an aweful risk IMHO... Hope the book is well worth
it.

[crossroads]

88. Revenge is a dish best served HOT!

...and this book seems like it is gonna be HOT! :nuke: Revenge is a very strong motivator...hehee
:evilgrin:

[thebigidea]

11. muahahah - I remember we all discussed that very thing here...

... months ago, during the divorce trial...

[maddezmom]

13. yeah, the underaged hookers that knocked on the door

I remember those threads....it will be interesting.

[maddezmom]

19. here's a couple of DU links for memory lane

There were many more...;)

[Lou_C]

12. Can we all guess how Sharon Bush will go

Will it be a suicide, accident or murder?

[Eloriel]

20. Does she fly in small planes much? n/t

[Lou_C]

23. Faulty Brakes on her car?

[progressivebydesign]

40. despondent over the divorce.. will take her own life..

That's my guess.

[LiberalFighter]

49. A little late considering the book will be coming out no matter what.

In fact it would be worse for the bushies because then people will finding whatever is in the book more believable.

[PartyPooper]

14. It sounds like Kitty Kelley is a good Democrat.

Didn't she write a scathing book about Nancy Reagan several years ago?

All I can remember is the expensive White House china, hand-picked by the First Lady...and, astrologers on call to help Nancy plan her husband's agenda and schedule.

I hope Poppy and Babs squirm over this one!

:evilgrin:

[NashVegas]

24. Nancy Book

It was so bitchy and gossipy that it did absolutely nothing to damage the Reagans one whit. If anything, they got sympathy.

I expect about the same for this project.

[LiberalFighter]

50. Doesn't do any good to stop an election if the book comes out after.

[Jade Fox]

78. If memory serves the Nancy book came out late in Reagan's second term

too late to do any harm (good). It did contain some bombshells
that would have hurt Reagan with the Christian Right had he been
up for re-election.

Example: Nancy was carrying on with Ronnie before he was divorced
and was pregnant when they got married.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

15. Preliminary details

For those who have not read of Neil Bush's sexual exploits:

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/gossip/story/150848p-132934c.html

Scroll down to "Talking dirty with Neil Bush"

[PartyPooper]

16. Bu$h family values?

You betcha'! They're all such lying, cheating, stealing, and hypocritical morons.

[Turbineguy]

21. Too funny:

Brown: "Do you know the name of that hotel? I may go to Thailand sometime."

And I may have to change my opinion about lawyers.

[LiberalFighter]

51. And he "recollects"?????

Geesh... either it happened or it didn't.

[Fridays Child]

17. I hope she sinks the whole nasty family, especially GW and Jeb.

eom

[kskiska]

25. The Bushes could have so easily avoided this

by offering her a good divorce settlement, but they didn't. Poppy offered a downgraded house to live in only until the children were 18, then she'd be on her own.

[KittyWampus]

87. Thank You! They Can't Dismiss Her For Being "Disgruntled"

cause she has EVERY RIGHT to be pissed off.

[Cocoa]

28. this should be fun

most fun will be seeing how the whores handle it.

[diamond14]

29. will she tell about their planned dinner with hinkley's brother, the night

after reaguns was shot and almost died???

sadly, many people told sharon and neil to cancel the dinner after reaguns survived...neil repetitively DENIED that his personal relationship with HINKLEY (and the whole bush* family close and long time relationship with the entire hinkley family) had anything to do with the assassination attempt on the president, while pappy bush* was the VP and certainly would have ascended to presidency had hinkley succeeded...

that's the REAL story, that only sharon will talk about...and I hope she does spill the beans....

[buff2]

31. This is great news........

I'm wondering what other little bombs are going to blow up on this nasty bunch of lying hypocrites? Boy,it's been one book after another on truth telling about Chimpy....and now this. I'll bet there are other books in the making that we don't know about yet. It's good to get the truth out. And....it's drowning out the repuke's books.....hahahahahahahahaha......

[diamond14]

32. actually, most anti-bush books ARE repuke books...Clark, O'Neil

even John Dean are all republicans....so is neil bush*'s wife, sharon....they are just eating their own....

as the famous Hunter Thompson so poignantly put it a LONG time ago:

bush* doesn't have the character to take any flak at all. They're going beat bush* down in DC, like repetitively hitting a rat in a wastebasket with a broom....(not an exact quote, but close)....

[buff2]

33. Oh,I forgot about that......

I was thinking about Annthrax Coulter,Sean Insanity and all the rest of that crowd. :evilgrin:

[UTUSN]

34. Been Waiting for This Book for a Couple of Years

Wish it were out now. But maybe 6 weeks is the right time for maximum impact.

To the post saying the Nancy book was "so bitchy" all it did was gain sympathy for the RAYGUNs, I don't know how it played out back then, but I just read it last year and it was GREAT to see cold facts now that Tweety and the wingnuts are drooling over the RAYGUNs and what lovebirds they were and all. Besides the astrologers and the china, there was the Ronnie rape, the Ronnie running away until Nancy caught him, Nancy shaking down donors for clothes-houses-money, Nancy's trysts with Frank, and on and on.

The opening is a classic:

"Two entries on Nancy Reagan's birth certificate are still accurate---her sex and her color. Almost every other item was invented then or later reinvented. In truth, the certificate gave birth to two generations of lies.
The original facts about the infant Anne Frances Robbins .... were carefully rewritten: She revised her date of birth, concealed her birthplace, and cast aside her father."

[ScrewyRabbit]

36. It would be great if it brought up (again) GW's cocaine use

That was felony conduct there. And every wingnut could never forget Clinton's little toke in college...

[jdj]

39. What is the best source of info on W.'s coke habit?

All I can find is his assertion that he hadn't used drugs since '79, and that's hear-say.

Don't forget Larry Flynt's book about W. is scheduled to come out in June; talks about the illegal abortion W. got for one of his girlfriends back in the day.

The April issue of Vanity Fair had a great interview with Sharon Bush, talked about everything but the herpes; this was a great issue, it's worth ordering a back issue cause it had a great, long, article on Bev Harris and BBV, and also a great article on the fall of Conrad Black.

[JNelson6563]

42. well there's that arrest and subsequent com. service

Check out Fortunate Son by JH Hatfield.

I hope poor Sharon will not soon share his fate: "suicide".

Julie

[Poiuyt]

55. What have you heard about Larry Flynt?

I hadn't heard much about his book lately. I assumed that he hadn't been able to get the parties involved to talk on record.

If Flynt is able to prove that W paid for an abortion, that could cause serious damage to his following from the religious right.

[jdj]

76. The only link I have is the democrats.com

link after the interview in 2000 on crossfire. If you go to that link it has other articles, but nothing recent. I have only gone through about half of my folders on Bush, but can't find the article about the affadavits and the book coming out in June. When (or if) I find it I will post it here. (I don't have a link to CNN because they scrubbed the story.)

http://democrats.com/display.cfm?id=159

ROBERT] NOVAK: Mr. Flynt, never let it be said that we censor any of our guests here on CROSSFIRE, and you said you wanted to talk about the election. Tell me what you wanted to say. 

FLYNT: Well, during the impeachment debacle, we did an investigation which resulted in the resignation of Bob Livingston and others and we have continued this investigation and for eight months we've been looking into George W. Bush's background. And we've found out in the early 1970s he was involved in an abortion in Texas, and I just think that it's sad that the mainstream media, who's aware of this story, won't ask him that question when they were able to ask him the drug question without any proof at all, and we've got all kinds of proof on this issue. 

NOVAK: Well, you're...

FLYNT: You know, the guy admitted he was a drunk for 20 years, and if the abortion issue is true then that puts him lower on the morality scale than Bill Clinton. 

[jdj]

77. Here are some more links on the abortion per google.

81. "Sex Lies & Politics" will be out in July - Link

This I think is the book (link below), to be published by Kensington Press and due to come out on July 4th. At the link below, there's plenty of hints that the book will contain explosive information about the Bush family, Cheney, and others...but no specific mention of the abortion story. I assume however that it will be in there, along with lots of other juicy tidbits.

http://www.larryflynt.com/notebook.php?id=31

[oustemnow]

82. The Flynt book does not contain any bombshells re: abortion

The section dealing with W.'s alleged arranging of an abortion for his then-girlfriend basically recaps the evidence that he already revealed, and then discusses his attempts to get the mainstream media to pursue the story. If anyone is expecting any smoking guns, they're going to be disappointed.

[goforit]

41. Remember his nanny mysteriously KILLED in car in front of his house?

That was unbelievable!!!

Barbara never could get a good handle on her kids!!!

O-U-T of C-O-N-T-R-O-L!!!!!!

[diamond14]

43. that wasn't neil...it was that OTHER brother...the one that lives in VA

and does a lot of business with China...can't remember his name...someone help me here....

anyhow, I do remember the news report, sort of...somehow, the family car moved forward in the driveway and CRUSHED the nanny to death against the garage door....all while NOBODY was in the car allegedly...it was a real strange story...no one at fault of course....just a little perfunctory examination of the scene by the local sheriff...accident, of course....no one at fault at all....

That story stinks as badly as any of them.

44. Disgusting highlight Texas Monthly:

Neil divorced Sharon in an e-mail the day after he left on a business trip to Arabia. Among the contents were "I'm tired of being compared to my brothers."

A fucking EMAIL?

45. Who has the movie rights for this motherscratcher I wonder?

That thing should be being shot right now.

[LibDemAlways]

48. Sharon Bush was the subject of a Vanity Fair

article a few months back. She's very bitter about the shoddy treatment she received from Poppy and Babs at the time of the divorce. They basically cut her loose and told her to get a job - very nasty people considering how their scumbag son had treated her. I hope she told Kelly every tawdry detail. A book airing Bush family dirty laundry, though, could go on forever. Expect a big juicy read.

[Media_Lies_Daily]

53. Hope she stays off of small planes.

[cliss]

54. I love it. You know what they say about a woman scorned?

"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned".

It's a fact: an angry ex-wife can do lots of damage. And they want to do damage. (rubs hands together)....I for one can't wait.

The IRS gets its best tips from ex-wives about husbands who have cheated on their taxes. Many other agencies get tips from those angry ex-wives.

Neil, watch out!!! It's the First Wives Club.

[Darth_Kitten]

90. Something very beautiful about a pissed off revenge- oriented woman...

:nuke: I, for one, cannot wait. Nothing wrong at all with getting back at all the sick $%&^$%%($#% who do us wrong.... :nuke: :evilgrin:

[truebrit71]

57. I believe the phrase is "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned...

...by a man that screws Asian Hookers that just 'show-up' at his hotel room..."

:evilgrin:

[Judi Lynn]

59. There should be a pool for guessing when they will shred her credibility

We'll be hearing astonishing things about her soon, I'm certain: She's a slut, she's crazy, she's a drunk, she's a danger to her children.

Heck, maybe she's a communist! By the way, what did she do with Jimmy Hoffa? Maybe she hid the WMD's.

The news will be on the way soon. The only question is when will they demolish her. Now, or right before the book is released?

[suegeo]

62. She can't be a communist

Reagan defeated the communists. No more communists exist because the Republicans defeated them.

Perhaps they can describe her as a terrorist or radical insurgent?

[Judi Lynn]

63. I finally found a photo You tell me: terrorist, or radical insurgent?

64. My, how that "darling young schoolteacher" has changed

Remember old Bab's words:

Indeed, other biographies of the Bush clan written by family members have tended to portray the Bush family as a goodhearted and wholesome Texas clan that is forever being sniped at by the East Coast liberal media establishment. For instance, this is how Barbara Bush, in her 1994 memoir, described Neil and Sharon's first meeting during his work on the elder Bush's Presidential campaign in 1980: "Neil had met and fallen in love with a darling young schoolteacher from New Hampshire, Sharon Smith. He not only won her vote but, thank heavens, her heart, too."

65. I had thought that

they had bought her silence. This ought to be interesting, I hope she avoids small airplanes.

[BabsSong]

67. Indeed this woman will reach many more than the political books

like Woodward, Clarke, etc. did (those were mainly read by partisans who will never change their minds anyhow). She is a regular gossip queen on Larry King and will undoubtedly be booked there real fast. People began to know her there and read her stuff because she was dealing with the British royals at a time when people still gobble up all the Diana stuff, etc. This is the type of 'gossip' that starts spreading around among people who don't know politics from their butt. Hopefully, as a run up to the publication, things will start leaking. It's a scorned wife that's going to get through a lot better than a politician's book. I do wonder, though, about this wife in that I took it that she was paid off not to do any book, etc. Therefore, I wonder if it is possible for her at a point to "change her mind" for big bucks and refuse to let the book be published?? I assume that Kelly already has signed releases so that she can't object at some point. This should be interesting.
