1. I have never heard this before

Your posting is the first that I've heard of this.
I doubt this story is true ... know why?
Honestly, the guys isn't good looking at all.
He's wimpy and was a drunk and ....
who'd want him?

2. story is true, Bush in his 20's, girl 15 rape? - she married CIA fellow

and still loves Bush - girlfriends talk - but off the record.

Hospital records are avaiable.

Seems a media ethics decision to not publish her name.

Actually, bush was consided to be hot shit when he was in his 20's. (not by me, mind you)

Someone should go back to Larry Flynt and try to get more details.

Well,make it a story if you want.
Collect all the information you can get and circulate it.

7. ....and one more thing

in all honesty, I wouldn't care what someone did in their personal life 30 years ago. BUT the Republicans have changed everything when Clinton was attacked so I tell everyone I know:"It's NOT politics as usual."

6. I have often said that I don't think Bush . . .

really wants to limit abortion -- he just wants to fool people into thinking he does.

Although I have been tin-foil-hatted for expressing my suspicions about this -- this is the kind of story that (if true) makes me think I am correct about Bush's real feelings about abortion (although I have heard that even Bush admits that he is for legal abortion in rape cases, which this may have been).

I can't believe that most Americans don't know and don't care about whether this story is true. Makes me sick.

11. Youthful indiscretion?

In the minds of many, this would be an acceptable excuse given his social status.

12. This story has been out there for some time now,

but never really covered by the media. Normally I wouldn't give a shit about an abortion in someone's past, but it's the hypocrisy that makes me so crazy.
