Typical crazy leftest desperation.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Details in a 1963 accident report say that Laura Bush, then 17, ran a stop sign in the Texas crash that killed a friend in another car. The report, adding information to previous reports of the crash, was released to The Associated Press on Wednesday.
Mrs. Bush now is the wife of Republican presidential nominee-to-be George W. Bush, the Texas governor.
''It was a very tragic accident that deeply affected the families and was very painful for all involved, including the community at large,'' said Mrs. Bush's spokesman, Andrew Malcolm. ''To this day, Mrs. Bush remains unable to talk about it.''
She did say in March, when asked at a campaign stop about the crash, ''I know this as an adult, and even more as a parent, it was crushing ... for the family involved and for me as well.''
There had been published accounts of the accident, but city officials had declined to release the records because those involved were under 18. The police report was released Wednesday in response to an open-records request that was submitted to Midland officials in March.
According to the two-page accident report, Laura Welch was driving her Chevrolet sedan on a clear night shortly after 8 p.m. on Nov. 6, 1963, when she drove into an intersection and struck a Corvair sedan driven by 17-year-old Michael Douglas.
Although previous news accounts have reported Douglas was thrown from the car and broke his neck, those details were not in the report.
The speed of Laura Bush's car was illegible on the report. The speed limit for the road was 55.
Laura Bush and her passenger, Judy Dykes, also 17, were taken to a hospital and treated for minor injuries, according to an accident account printed at the time in the Midland Reporter-Telegram.
The police report indicates no charges were filed. That section of the report was left blank.
''As far as we know, no charges were filed,'' said Midland city attorney Keith Stretcher. ''I don't think it's unusual that charges weren't filed.''
I think I heard something like that in 2000, but it didn't go anywhere.
There is a book on Laura bush written by some type of 'Dowd' person, can't remember her name, but she cited on C-SpanII that Laura killed one person at the age of 16, not being at fault. It has haunted her for life. If they use that as smear, I hope someone will sue them.
The Dems, Dan Rather are being criminals in their personal attacks/defamation, but if it gets too personal - they should be held accountable. One has to understand, most dislike by other countries regarding Pres. Bush comes from the disrespect for the Presidency by the Democrats. First Amendment my butt, but it is not ok to disrespect the First Amendment.
That did happen to Laura. It happened to my wife too. Accidents happen. Laura's has not been a secret however.
Laura Bush apparently was in a car accident where she hit another car, which was being driven by a family friend. For some reason the DUmmies assign malicious intent to it, simply because she is a Bush.
