What does Josh Marshall know that we don't

[really-looney]

Why does he go with the word one when referring to DWI's. Are there more? I know that the VP has multiples but what about the President? What will we tel the childrn

In our up-is-down political world, authoring memos which for the first time put the United States government on record sanctioning torture probably can't get you nixed for Attorney General. But fibbing about your role in covering up one of the president's DUIs just might. Newsweek's Isikoff is on the case.

1. Any thoughts for the AM crowd

Or is this like all other thread on a quick death spiral

2. bush has 2 DWIs.

Gonzales only helped in trying to cover up one of them.

5. What was the second?

6. 1967 I believe, and 1976 , plus 2 non-DUI arrests

I think the 1967 arrest is still being argued over; bush has only admitted publicly to the '76 arrest, IIRC.

3. What is Bu$h hiding?

Now why would George Dubya require a Texas driver's license with an entirely new number? It was obtained on March 31, 1995, as was his wife's Laura Welch Bush's. His wife and daughters didn't need new numbers, nor did his famous parents - former president and first lady, George H. and Barbara Pierce Bush - who all would seem to be at as much risk security-wise. And by the way, doesn't Texas require renewal of a driver's license every four years on one's birthday? Did George Dubya have something in his past to hide to cause him to purge the old record and number? This seems especially confusing since his birthday is July 6, 1946, but he obtained his new number on March 31, 1995 as a renewal. (More)

4. I sent this info out to every stirshit lefty media source in existance

prior to the 2000 election.

No interest.

Sounds like some investigative journalism is called for, but I'm just another rat-in-a-cage consumer.

7. They are only interested in investigative journalism if it makes

a Dem look bad. No interest in covering the GOP at all. That's what got us into the mess we're in now-a lazy, corporate-owned media.
