I already knew Bush was something of a party animal in college. "Not only did he use coke, uh, he also smoked weed in college one time!" And...?

On the tapes he says if someone came forward to say that he did coke they'd be lying.

You can cross that off your list or you can choose to spread what you know is a lie.

I have a guess which (crooked) path you'll follow.

The point I was making was "even if he did" there's still a "Yeah... and?" on my part. I could give a rat's behind less what he did in college. He's obviously a changed man today.

"I have a guess which (crooked) path you'll follow."

What's that supposed to mean?

I thought he said if someone said he denied doing coke they'd be lying. Who knows? It wouldn't surprise me or even bother me that much to learn that he had done cocaine. According to SAMHSA, over 20% of people 18 and older who are full time employed in this country admit to federal surveyors that they have done cocaine at one point in their lives. I bet that number is low because my guess is that not everyone feels comfortable admitting their felonious conduct to the federal government. Bush was a wealthy wild party animal back in the days when cocaine was most popular in this country and many thought of it as a nonaddictive party enhancer for the young and rich. I think he probably did do it and that's why he refuses to deny it. It doesn't really matter though. We've all done things when we were younger that we wouldn't do today, especially those of us who went through our party warrior period.
