My favorite piece on W and his strictly hypothetical relationship with that now unfashionable white powder was this Maureen Dowd thing:

By the time he got to Fairlawn, Ohio, on Friday he was still deep in Clintonspeak. “I think parents, particularly baby-boomer parents, ought to say to children, `Do not use drugs,' '' Bush said. ``I think we owe the children that responsibility to share our wisdom. I worry about a society that sends a different message. One of the interesting questions facing baby boomers is, `Have we grown up?'''
He was pressed by The Times' Adam Clymer: “And if a child asks a baby-boomer parent, `Well, did you?'''
He replied: “I think the baby-boomer parent ought to say, `I've learned from mistakes I may or may not have made. And I'd like to share some wisdom with you.'''
Well, diplomatic W had words with Cheney about Clymer later, as I recall. Big time. Digging that one up also brought up this interesting collection. bushwatch.net
Not a Drudge kind of story, though. Not a Rupert Murdoch/Fox News kind of story either, for that matter. |
