Make it stop ...

Now that Kitty Kelley has spotlighted the lurid charge of cocaine use at Camp David in her latest scandal book, "The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty," The National Enquirer is weighing in with its own investigation headlined "More Proof Bush Used Cocaine."

The issue hitting the streets today quotes Bush detractor Toby Rogers concerning an April 1998 Houston lunch he allegedly had with Bush family friend Michael C. Dannenhauer, a meal described in detail in Rogers' book, "Ambushed: Secrets of the Bush Family, the Stolen Presidency, 9-11 and 2004." [Well, at least we know he's an unbiased source. Call Dan Rather!]

Rogers tells the tabloid: "During my lunch with Dannenhauer, I told him I heard that George W. [then Texas governor] was a real party animal. He just rolled his eyes and told me, 'Between you and me, he's been out of control since college.'

"Dannenhauer also confided, 'There was cocaine use, lots of women, but the drinking was the worst.' According to Dannenhauer, Bush's use of cocaine started sometime before 1977, and his father told Dannenhauer that Junior even experienced some 'lost weekends in Mexico.' full story

Junior even experienced some 'lost weekends in Mexico.

And he's probably ready for another one, if this kind of BS doesn't stop!

A little late night humor (?):

Jay Leno: "All the new shows coming out. CBS has a new news magazine coming out. It's called 'Dan Rather's Believe It Or Not.'" Jay Leno: "As you know, CBS, which stands for 'Can't Believe Story...'"

Jay Leno: "On Nightline, Ted Koppel said, 'If the Kerry campaign had put this stuff out, it would be unbelievable stupid. It would be the stupidest thing.' You know what that means? Oh, my God, Bush could be the smart one."

Jay Leno: "President Bush addressed the National Guard troops at the National Guard Association in Las Vegas. President Bush told the troops that he's proud of his time in the National Guard. He said it was the best weekend of his life."

Jay Leno: "He refused to answer any questions about his own military service. He said, 'Hey, what happens in the National Guard, stays in the National Guard.'"

Jay Leno: "He did tell the group, 'Hey, if I knew the National Guard met in Vegas all the time, I would have showed up more often.'"

Jay Leno: Kitty Kelley "says in her book that George Bush once belonged to a whites-only private club. Well, yeah, it's called the Republican Party."

Jay Leno: "And John Kerry campaigned in Wisconsin today. It was reported he had a big cheese head on. It turned out, no, that was his actual head."

Jay Leno: "In an interview in Harper's Bazaar magazine, Teresa Heinz Kerry says she doesn't much care for the title 'First Lady.' Well, the way the campaign is going, I think she'll be okay."
