BUSH 'TOOK COCAINE AT CAMP DAVID'
Sep 6 2004
And wife Laura liked dope, says book

GEORGE W Bush snorted cocaine at Camp David, a new book claims.

His wife Laura also allegedly tried cannabis in her youth.

Author Kitty Kelley says in her biography The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty, that the US President first used coke at university in the mid-1960s.

She quotes his former sister-in-law Sharon Bush who claims: "Bush did coke at Camp David when his father was President, and not just once either."

1. Bush would never deny cocaine use.
He just said he would answer questions about his youth ie 40.

4. If True, Point Out the Hypocrisies
If this tale is true, we ought to point out the hypocrisies. Does anyone else besides me remember the Texas GOP outrage at the fact that former Texas Governor Ann Richards was a recovering alcoholic and had used cocaine herself before her sobriety? Does anyone else remember the right-wing howls of indignation when former president Clinton said that he didn't inhale? Does anyone else remember right-wing accusations that the Clinton administration was rife with drug users including, according to them, the president himself.

As is typical, when a rich man admits he was a drug user, chances are he'll go to rehab. A poor man, on the other hand, goes to prison.
