Michigan phone calls anger Bush camp By KATHY BARKS HOFFMAN, Associated Press LANSING, Mich. (October 27, 2000 2:00 p.m. EDT nandotimes.com) - The Bush campaign called "despicable" a series of taped phone calls that Michigan residents are receiving that say George W. Bush breaks promises and would harm Social Security. In one call, Charlotte Cherry of Houston says that "Governor Bush has accepted $1.3 million from corporate polluters and he's allowed them to keep polluting while my kids suffer." In another, Ann Friday of Arlington, Texas, says that her husband died after neglect in a nursing home four years ago and that Bush has signed legislation that has weakened rather than strengthened nursing home regulations. In another call, actor Ed Asner says that "George W. Bush has a proposal that would undermine Social Security, even scuttling current benefits." Bush spokeswoman Karen Hughes said it's "despicable for the vice president" to suggest that as governor Bush is responsible for the death of Friday's husband. nandotimes.com
