First Lady Laura's Bloody Fight With Boozing Bush


GEORGE BUSH and wife Laura are headed for divorce - again - after she left claw marks on his face
during a furious fight over his boozing, White House sources reveal. The president was left with a bloody
three-inch gash along with a smaller cut. Our world exclusive reveals the shocking details of their
explosive showdown - and what their future holds.

*****************************************

I just hate gossip like this. :rofl:

[madokie]

1. I noticed ;-)

[K Gardner]

53. Is this the same stuff we were seeing in the Israel presser where we were trying to

figure out what was wrong with his left eye? And he was stuttering. And remember that post about him wandering around the WH, seeing ghosts and chyte? Alcoholic dementia... hmmm...

[Wickerman]

2. I wonder if Matthews will say she is just looking for a Senate run? n/t

[HooptieWagon]

28. Why not a Presidential bid?

...she has lots of experience as First Lady.

[El Supremo]

3. Oh my goodness!

I saw this in the grocery store last night and was so stunned I couldn't do the automatic check out.

[Botany]

5. I just saw it today

That man's face has had more "boo-boos" on it than can really be explained.

[demigoddess]

11. he is still learning how to shave. maybe she should buy him an electric.

either that or he was borrowing stuff from her jewelry box and she did not want to share.

[lpbk2713]

18. STUNNING!!1

So stunning it made Jennifer Aniston collapse.

[mzmolly]

20. I'm more interested in the Aniston collapse!

:P

[Maat]

66. That's the first thought that went through my mind!

:P

[madeline_con]

31. That looks like he's taken another spill off his bike. n/t

[orleans]

79. .

[americanstranger]

4. Is it irresponsible to speculate?

No. It would be irresponsible not to speculate. :)

- as

[book_worm]

6. Yes, she wanted a swig and he wouldn't give her the bottle.

[Richard Steele]

16. So she went upside his head with a pretzel.

Can't say as I blame her.

[madeline_con]

30. Excellent!

:rofl:

[Ignis]

35. That rock salt can be some hard stuff!

Though it's obviously true what the Pagans say: Salt really does banish Evil!

[SIMPLYB1980]

43. LMFAO!

[cynthia]

67. lol

:rofl:

[Left Brain]

74. rofl!

6 & 16, you guys get a DUzy nom!!

[struggle4progress]

40. Completely untrue. They weren't squabbling over the fifth but over the cocaine

[Tesha]

7. I winder how the Secret Service will someday explain Laura Bush's death...

I winder how the Secret Service will someday
explain Laura Bush's death after they shoot
and kill her protecting the "President" of
the United States from one of her attacks?

Tesha

[Spike89]

9. Not a problem...

You don't really believe that is the original Laura, do you? We're on at least the 3rd revision. Unfortunately for W, no matter how the program the replacements, they all end up kicking his ass.

[Recursion]

45. Same way she knocked off her inconvenient high school boyfriend?

Could you imagine if Hillary Clinton had killed her boyfriend how that would have been plastered everywhere? Laura did it and you can barely find it mentioned.

[dflprincess]

8. Not for one minute do I believe this story

I have no doubt that Pickles slashed him in a fight over his sleeping with Condi, not his drinking. :evilgrin:

[dembotoz]

10. nah--he got the scratches taking off chenny's studded obedience collar.

he is so into leather and whips

[UTUSN]

12. K&R #1 because of my LOATHING for gossip!1 n/t

[malaise]

17. K & R

because I want others to see how much I loathe gossip.

:rofl: :rofl:

[AnneD]

21. But you don't...

loathe it mare than I do. :rofl:

[malaise]

27. LOL

:rofl:

[walldude]

13. She was just pissed that he finished off the Tequila... n/t

[Ezlivin]

14. It happened when her and Condi were switching positions

GW has never shied away from his love of the ménage à trois.

[Recursion]

23. The DC rumor mill has it...

...that W went back on the bottle around late '03, and back on the white stuff not much later. Laura left almost immediately (she's often seen going into a hotel near the WH at night) but he and Condi stayed together until she broke it off for reasons unspecified right after she went to State (right after she had an "operation to remove a growth from her uterus" *ahem*).

DC's a really small town, to be honest.

[RuleOfNah]

24. Didn't a Republican get caught with a bunch of coke recently?

Said it was for friends? Hmmm...

[RamboLiberal]

26. Just curious - are you or do you have someone in the loop

in DC? Is this common knowledge among pols and pundits in DC? And why does it not come out anywhere besides the tabloids. With the Clintons it seemed like everything came out true or not. Like Hillary throwing a lamp at Bill(remember that?).

I remember John Dean in one of his books hinting that Bush was on pills or booze.

So will the truth ever come out? Damn I'd love to see him exposed.

[Recursion]

29. Only if by "the loop" you mean capitol hill and OEB offices

It's just the rumor mill like in any company

[madeline_con]

34. I think that's crap!

Surely there's another bedroom she could use. She doesn't have to go to a hotel.

[Recursion]

36. Not if there's Someone Else

Just sayin

[madeline_con]

37. I wouldn't let some bimbo rum me out of the WH! n/t

[Recursion]

39. I mean someone else for her

She put up with Condi and W's affair for a while (that one, incidentally, I've heard from so many people with a lot of access that I don't really doubt it at all), but I don't know if she'd want to bring Mr. Whoever into the spare bedroom with her.

[RamboLiberal]

42. I'm being dense here - Mr Whoever?

Are you saying Laura's having an affair? Or that W has a taste for men? If I'm reading you correctly you're saying Laura's got another guy?

[Recursion]

44. I was suggesting that she might have another guy

As the reason for why she was staying in a hotel many nights. Not that she was getting away from "some bimbo" W was banging but so that she could get on with her bizniss.

[Buns_of_Fire]

77. Hmmmmm... Jimmy/Jeff doesn't show up at the WH these days, does he?

Migawd, they're all doing to each other what they're doing to the country! Men, woman, dogs, cats, cute little furry woodland creatures, convenient knotholes in trees, anything, anywhere! Sodom-on-the-Potomac! Republicans Gone Wild! Debbie Does Dallas. Debbie Does Washington. Washington Does Debbie.

Why is it, I wonder, that pResident Shit-Fer-Brains always seems to come out on the short end of all these Close Encounters?

I really hate it when I allow myself to speculate in such sleaze.

No, I don't. :evilgrin:

[madeline_con]

58. Do you think that's why she stays sedated?

Seriously, do you think there's really something going on?

[Stephanie]

49. Oh do tell.

It really really really bothers me that Bush's drinking is often said to be an open secret in DC, yet nobody reports it. Are there no honest reporters in Washington?

[Recursion]

54. The "pretzel" during the superbowl was the worst

George W. Bush a few years ago passed out during the Superbowl "after choking on a pretzel".

Yeah, right. Can you really even say that with a straight face?

[Stephanie]

56. Seriously, if everyone knows, why doesn't anyone say anything?

This is what makes me hate Washington. It's the Kool Kids who keep the secrets so they can get invited to the best parties. Meanwhile the Titanic is going down.

[Glimmer of Hope]

61. I totally agree. Years from now, the stories will come out.

[Virginia Dare]

50. That's complete bullshit..

the chimp is shooting blanks. Jeb had to donate sperm and Laura got preggers with a turkey baster. Everybody knows that.

[Virginia Dare]

51. That's why he kept Karen and Harriett around for so long..

dude had a virtual harem going for a while there.

[Greylyn58]

15. Me too, Botany, me to.

:evilgrin: :rofl:

[Botany]

48. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav EDV?

[damntexdem]

19. Naw, I don't think so.

I think it was in a fight over Condi. ;-)

[RufusTFirefly]

22. I'm waiting until this important story gets printed in a more respectable publication...

[Berry Cool]

62. Amateurs must've done that layout.

The headline "FREAKS, GEEKS AND WEIRDOS" should have been much closer to the picture of Cheney.

[UpInArms]

25. k&r because everyone should see how much we all loathe gossip

[onethatcares]

33. gossip, how dare you,

the globe is one of the finest magazines ever to grace the checkout line of your local grocer. Anyway, why isn't she with him in Israel instead of condosleezie? Bet she's mad about the tall boots too.:silly:

[Oilwellian]

32. I just saw this in the grocery store line

and busted out laughing. I almost bought it to bring home and scan for my fellow DU'ers but was too embarrassed to be seen buying it. LOLOL. Now I'm glad I didn't.

[Botany]

38. I picked it up and read it.

:rofl: Nothing but cheap gossip :9

I wonder how quick she is going to dump his ass after he gets out of office?

[dysfunctional press]

41. "...bloody three-inch gash..???"

I'm not going to say it...

[nadinbrzezinski]

46. Take into account it is in the yellow press where we first saw the

Lewinsky brouhahha too.

In my mind if she leaves him... so be it

[SalmonChantedEvening]

47. "Well Nahmy, yer average sewing needle makes an effective hahpoon in hand2hand combat"

Cliff Claven is a god.

[lovuian]

52. He's over in the MidEast with Condi

I think Laura is just fed up and can't wait till he's out of that Whitehouse

[OwnedByFerrets]

55. Shouldnt she be sent to gitmo as a risk to national security??

[rateyes]

57. I'm with George on this one...

he shouldn't have stolen Pickles' booze. He should've gotten his own.

[lumberjack_jeff]

59. How unseemly. How beneath us. How can I resist K&R? n/t

[MethuenProgressive]

60. Now *THAT'S* what I'm talkin' about!!

I miss the days when DU hated Republicans! :hi:

[DesertRat]

63. OMG, Paul McCartney is dying??!!

[Stephanie]

64. I posted that photo! Now the truth comes out!

And here I thought he had dents in his face from his pilly!

[earth mom]

65. Does anybody know how many cuts & abrasions * has had on his face the past 7 years?

It seems like a helluva lot to me. :wtf:

BTW, I've not had one cut on my face in all that time.....

[Botany]

69. Lots

BTW how many people do you know have been sent to the E.R. by a pretzel?

[Maat]

68. Another K & R ...

because I also LOATHE gossip .... that's why I have to review all of it ... to get outraged!

:rofl:

[HamdenRice]

70. Btw, did anyone else think Bush sounded falling down drunk in Israel?

I heard this clip on the radio of him talking about Iran, and he sounded shit faced, falling down drunk!

He kept saying, "Iran a threat ... Iran a threat" -- like no verbs, no conjugation, slurring his words.

Anyone else catch that?

[lame54]

71. HOLY SHIT!!!...

Jennifer Aniston collapses?:cry:

[bleever]

72. Irresponsible posts like this make all DUers look

very carefully. :)

Recommended.

[Botany]

75. I feel really bad about posting it. Honestly

[MilesColtrane]

73. He's a drunken stumblebum, a boozehound, a juicer, an inebriate, a sot,

a soak, a chronic alcoholic, a dipsomaniac, a problem drinker, a guzzler, a swiller, a soaker, a sponge, a boozer, a lush, a souse, a rummy, a wino, an alchy, a swillbelly, an elbow bender, a tippler, a barfly, he likes to get intoxicated, bibacious, crapulent, sodden, in his cups, saturated, tipsy, grogged, fuddled, obfuscated, glassy-eyed, stupefied, staggering drunk, boozy, tight, lit up, liquored up, fucked up, lit to the gills, three sheets to the wind, under the sauce, under the influence, pickled, lathered, high as a kite, fried to his tonsils, full to his back teeth, he likes to feel no pain, get blind drunk, get paralyzed, he drinks until he's out of it, out cold, under the table, passed out, drunk as a skunk, loaded, lubricated, well-oiled, stewed, tanked, boiled, gassed, bombed, stoned, pissed, zonked, ripped, blitzed, polluted, crocked, cock-eyed, sloshed, potted, plastered, sozzled, stiff, stinko, blotto, shellacked, smashed, hammered, shit-faced, loose, annihilated, wasted, trashed, buzzed, crunked, Irish, retarded, bladdered, wazzed, quenched, cocked, crapped, dinged, defibrilated, gooned, jocked, munched, raped, rapped, slammed, and faded.

And, people like that tend to fall down a lot.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

76. He has hostile furniture!!

The furniture attacks him, the floor comes up and HITS him in the face, he has carpet burns on his face, so I guess chewing carpet fibers doesn't taste very good if you're sober or drunk.
The snack foods took attack lessons from the furniture!

Excellent list.
The one I've heard that's not on your list is "Drunker than a boiled owl".

[Chomskyite]

78. Edmund Wilson wrote that list

And it's never been equalled as far as I know.
