I first hear about "outrageous accusations" as reasons why Larry King would not have her on his show. (FR Thread)

Now the DUers are all excited about trashing Bush and his private life.

This is not going to be some obscure web site accusation.

These will be coming from Kitty Kelly, a "respected" author. (At least respected by the MSM)

Kitty Kelley Penning 'Coup de Grace' for Bush Dynasty?

Richard Clarke, Bob Woodward and indefatigable privacy maven Joe Wilson have had their shot at torpedoing President Bush's re-election. Now it's Kitty Kelley's turn, with her book "The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty" due out just after Labor Day.

Described by one media fan as "a fastidious fact-checker with an unrivaled knack for zingers such as stories of coathanger abortions," Kelley is said to have "Karl Rove's head swimming" with her latest screed.

Her last political hit piece, a 1991 bio of Nancy Reagan, purported to reveal a so-called affair with Frank Sinatra.

After the New York Times front-paged the improbable tale, Timeswoman Maureen Dowd defended her coverage thusly:

"Of course, the book is tawdry. Of course the book is, in some spots, loosely sourced and over the top. ... Of course, there are mistakes in it. ... The point, however, is that Kelley's portrait is not essentially untrue."
