I did some coke back in the 80's sure. But I'm not running for president. And I just admitted it too. Why not? I hate coke now and would never touch it, or even associate with people who do, but in those days things were different, just like grass back in the 60's and 70's. It was everywhere. And pre-crack (cheaper form which spread through the poor neighborhoods) the rich kids always had cash for blow. I went to east coact prep school and Ivy league college just like GW. He's older than me but I know it was the thing to do. And my Republican buddies (sons and daughters of old money big name GOP politicians who shall remain nameless) did just as much as the Kennedy kids whom I also went to school with. Then in Texas during the boom-boom 80's, it was once again a very big thing. I'm not saying GW is any different than a lot of them and it doesn't make him a bad person. He's just being slippery not to admit it.
