New Book Rips Lid Off Jeb Bush Cocaine Scandal
Radar Online ^ | 1.26.16 | staff

Posted on 02/15/2016 9:24:23 PM PST by drewh

Jeb Bush was a secret cocaine abuser who even celebrated his dad’s presidential election by snorting coke with a top GOP official, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

That’s the stunning claim by former White House aide Roger Stone, whose bombshell new book rips the lid off Bush’s shocking secret life. Jeb! And The Bush Crime Family, due to hit Feb. 16, is co-authored by Saint John Hunt, the son of E. Howard Hunt, the man who organized the bugging of the Democratic headquarters in the Watergate.

In one shocking passage, Stone wrote: “Jeb had snorted lines of cocaine at the vice president’s residence at the Naval Observatory on the night of Vice President George H.W. Bush‘s election to the presidency.”

“A prominent Tallahassee lobbyist told me he had also snorted coke with Jeb Bush, which the [then-Florida] governor said he did largely out of boredom with the slow pace of the state capital,” added Stone.

Stone pointed out in the book that there are also allegations Bush, 62, once smuggled cocaine into Florida.

“Legendary CIA drug smuggler and pilot Barry Seal claimed to his Miami lawyer Richard Sharpstein that he had orchestrated an elaborate sting at the Opa-locka airport in which the DEA got videotape of Jeb and his brother George W. Bush bringing a kilo into Florida for resale,” wrote Stone.

Stone, a best-selling author who worked for President Nixon, claimed that while Jeb publicly supports the War on Drugs, he secretly used and abused drugs for years.

“Jeb’s conservative stand on drugs is perhaps his most hypocritical position of all,” Stone wrote. “As a heavy dope smoker and even a dealer in prep school and college, he started out early on a path many young people do. But what makes him a phony is his tough stance against drugs as an elected official and a politician…”

Whatever. Don't pick and choose what I wrote

If you say more than one thing, we're supposed to either agree or disagree with everything you wrote? That's kinda' weird.

And Jeb would speak there saying that if it can happen to him, it can happen to anybody.

Yes, it could happen to the drug-running sons of a father who was CIA Director...something every voter can identify with...there but for the grace of God... (snort).

What am I doing? I don't think that anyone whose perceptions or judgement have been addled by previous or present drug or alcohol abuse should be in a position where making sound decisions is crucial.

I was actually thinking of Obama, and the detachment he seems to have between decisions and consequences.

No wonder Jeb is so low energy. He’s a burned out stoner.

And Trump knew ALLLLL this way back when . . .

Roger Stone was "fired" by Donald Trump after he announced.

In retrospect, that now seems to have been farsighted strategic move on their part -- Stone gets to play dirty tricks without Trump being responsible for them.

“That’s the stunning claim by former White House aide Roger STONE”

I’m no fan of Jeb, but I wouldn’t trust the memory of a guy with that name, as most of his brain cells are probably dead by now anyway.

Yes, in fact the timing of the book's release (planned months in advance) has turned out to be perfect.

Just as Brother W is making his speeches in South Carolina, the audience is reading this stuff.

It would be great to see W confronted with a tough question about the book.   Will it happen?   Probably not.   He'll go back to his hiding spot.

Great comment, Windy.

It has been awhile since we have had an Alpha male in the GOP.

...When Trump entered the race, the energy cranked up a thousand-fold, and because of his no-nonsense, take-no-prisoners, bust-you-in-the-lip, sort of bluster.

And you have to respect the way Trump has disposed of his opponents.  He hits hard after an opponent goes nasty on Trump.

The MSM meme is that Trump is trashing Cruz for no reason.  But who wouldn't fight back when a guy is spending millions of dollars in negative ads to tell lies about you?

And yet he took down Carson very artfully.  Trump simply repeated the words Carson wrote in his own book.  Trump exposed the "stabbed my best friend" and "hit my mother with a hammer" stuff as nonsense and out of character with who Carson really is.

So ironically he actually raised Carson's character by exposing the book's fairy tale that "here was a violent youth who became a God fearing neurosurgeon."

And I sense Carson respects Trump today.   The Art of the Finesse.

There are those who say that Poppy Bush was involved with the Kennedy assassination.

Most runners stay clean; Jeb allegedly partook. So this is not the same issue.

There was no fairy tale here, only a standard salvation story.
