I heard rumors about "cocaine use". Most of us knew about the drunk driving charge. I didn't know he skipped Viet Nam.
I heard his first job was Governor of Texas.

How will he silence his opponents in WA? He doesn't have a majority?

From the article you cite:

"One of the most disturbing things about Bush is that he consistently works to silence his critics using his money and power,including state police and expensive lawyers. Not since Richard Nixon has a major presidential candidate been so quick to prevent his opponents from free speech. At the very least, this shows he doesn't understand big-league politics and may not be tough enough to handle more serious opponents, such as hostile foreign countries and terrorists. At worst, it may be a sign of Nixon-like paranoia; that president's thin-skin started out with similar small potatos and grew to bring down his presidency amid enemies' lists, illegal break-ins of his opponent's offices, and forcing the IRS to audit his enemies."
