Guess the Other 90% Must Have Been Pretty Bad
Well, people were abuzz when news of the Bush tapes was released by the New York Times over the weekend. The tapes featured in the article were only 10% of the tapes that Doug Wead had made with Bush. In fact, when Wead was asked if he didn't believe he had betrayed Bush, Wead said that no, he would have betrayed Bush if he had released all of the tapes.
Well, considering these tapes appear to show that Bush admits to cocaine, pot and even LSD use, I can't imagine how much worse the other 90% could be. (Maybe Bush discusses the abortion he paid for in Texas in pre-Roe v. Wade days). But maybe there's one inkling by this apparent comment by Bush:
During the primary contest, Mr. Bush often sized up his dozen Republican
rivals, assessing their appeal to conservative Christian voters, their treatment
of him and their prospects of serving in a future Bush administration. He paid
particular attention to Senator John Ashcroft. "I like Ashcroft a lot," he told
Mr. Wead in November 1998. "He is a competent man. He would be a good
Supreme Court pick. He would be a good attorney general. He would be a
good vice president." When Mr. Wead predicted an uproar if Mr. Ashcroft
were appointed to the court because of his conservative religious views, Mr.
Bush replied, "Well, tough."
