Who hasn't said things in private that they wouldn't want to world to hear? I know I have. But if you look at Bush's record and what little of the tapes I've heard, seems like he's the same in public and private. Compare tapes of Nixon and Bush and see who seems to be more honest and forthright. I think this will turn out to be much ado about nothing.
Someone needs to punch this turkey in the nose.
Agreed. When I read saw the first report on this on MSNBC, I initially thought, uh oh, this isn't going to be pretty.
But reading the article, I didn't see anything about Bush that I didn't pretty much already know.
I just can't see that there is anyway to spin what's on these tapes as being bad for Bush. . .
So he basically admits to marijuana use? So what? He never denied it. Who could be that surprised by this at this point? He said he'd turned his life around. The media harping on this isn't going to help the Democrats.
The rest of the stuff just seems to be Bush talking politics. I think people can pretty much accept that Presidents have to have some understanding of policits to get elected.
This is the sort of stuff you almost hope the media would bash Bush with because it causes them to lose even further credibility.
