KITTY KELLEY TV SCHEDULE to Air Book that Says George W. Bush Is WIMP

category international | politics / elections | other press author Monday September 13, 2004 08:44author by Pablo Kristophoros - American Media Enterprises Report this post to the editors

Book says "W stands for wimp." Backs it up.

Monday a.m., Kitty Kelley will air her book on the George Bush family - The Family - on NBC's TODAY SHOW, which starts at 7 a.m.
This and the release of the book the next day are historic occasions. The book will generate headlines and, eventually, notes in history books. Below we have listed some of the programs Miss Kitty will be on. The main lesson from the book is this: "W" as in George W. Bush stands for "Wimp." Bush relates poorly to women, including Laura Bush, and has other relationships that are less than manly, according to the book, discussed below.

A SCHEDULE OF KITTY KELLEY APPEARANCES IS BELOW.

AUSTRALIAN NEWSPAPER REPORTS "THE FAMILY" WILL DISCUSS BUSH RELATIONS WITH VICTOR ASHE

The Age, a mainstream Australian newspaper like the Washington Post, reported on Sept. 10 of Ms. Kelley that, She may also raise a nasty rumour that circulates in Washington DC from time to time, that President Bush had a "special relationship" with a former mayor of Tennessee, Victor Ashe, who is now the US ambassador to Poland." The quote refers to Victor Ashe, the former mayor of Knoxville, Georgie's roomie at Yale and, like Georgie, a cheerleader. Ashe has received other official appointments from Bush. Both men have made several trips to commingle, since Bush acceded to the presidency. Ashe has visited the Bush ranch at Crawford, TX. Records of visits to Crawford, by Ashe and others, are no longer kept (though records of visits to the White House are kept). Bush appointed Ashe to a position outside the country before the 2004 election campaign started.

Laura Bush is going around the country proclaiming that "W (the salient initial of her husband) stands for women." Make that singular, if the above story is true.This is not a gay-bashing article. This is not to say that gays are less than anyone else or not strong. However, traditionally - and George Bush pretends to be a traditional man - men chase men and women chase women, exclusively.

"W" STANDS FOR "WIMP" - The evidence of these stories is in the book, "The Family," in hundreds of notes. The stories are well souced, over 800 sources.

The book, The Family, also reports that George Bush has engaged in domestic violence. This could have been verbal abuse, which Bush is noted for and which earned him the nickname "Lip" at Yale. Whatever it was, it prompted Laura Bush to flee her own home on more than one occasion, the book says, according to the Sunday Herald (UK) newspaper. Real men do not bully women.

GEORGE AND LAURA ARE HAVING TROUBLES

George and Laura may be on the rocks. He probably has broken his promise to stay off intoxicants. According to the book, Bush used cocaine AFTER his conversion to Christianity. That brings into question about his sincerity and his present claims to moral superiority. Also relevant is what the drugs could have done to his mind before his conversion and alleged abstenance.

George Bush drug Laura Bush into his family obligation to acquire power - against her will and his promise - and now that has led to a quest for world domination -- well beyond the expectations of a middle-class librarian from the smoggy oilfields of Midland, Texas

A recent press conference illustrates the wimp charge. A group of female protesters interrupted Bush's press conference until the police and Secret Service agents could remove them. Under similar circumstances, Ronald Reagan would have looked up, flashed a smile, and tossed his head and tossed a quip. Bush, on the other hand, looked actually frightened.

AWOL CHARGED IN "THE FAMILY"

That the man lacks physical courage is shown in the book. His flight as a pilot was mainly not in the Texas Air National guard but *from* the Guard. This of course is the biggest current news story on Bush, other than Ms. Kelley's book. On a personal note, I also was in the Air National Guard. Something that has not been discussed, and should be, is other documents that are generated when one leaves the ANG. If a person leaves a state ANG, that requires that an order be generated by the state adjutant general's department, Texas or Alabama, in Bush's case, assigning him to another state or to the Obligated Reserve section, ARPC, Denver, CO (per para. 14p, ANGR 39-10 (Removal from state).

This was not done in Bush's case.

When Bush actually left the Air National Guard to go to Harvard Business School, there should have been a Discharge And/Or Reenlistment Interview, which would have generated another form from his particular ANG unit.

This was not done in Bush's case. These Bush exceptions should not be dismissed as privelege of the "well placed" that was common at the time (if it was, it still is). The Bush election campaign has made light of John Kerry's service in Vietnam, 15 weeks. However, Kerry was in a combat zone whatever he did. He probably did at least come under fire - at least. Bush, however, made sure he would never be in combat and reneged on his agreement even to serve as a reserve pilot, which cost the taxpayers over $1 million to train him for.

W, WIMP, BARBARA'S BOY

"The Family" details another special relationship of George Bush, that to his mother Barbara. Combined with the documented love/hate relationship to his father, this could be described as Oedipal. Part of his rationale for attacking Iran could have been, "I'll show Mother that I finished what my old man started and saved his butt to boot." (The Clinton administration claimed that Saddam Hussein had plotted to kill the former president Bush ex officio.)

LIAR OF THE DAY: North Korea had a large explosion detected by satellites last week. Colin Powell says the mushroom cloud was not from a nuclear explosion.

LAURA BUSH NO ANGEL EITHER

Laura Bush, nee Welch, killed a young man, Michael Douglas, in 1963, by running a stop sign with her car. Of all of the 50,000 people in Midland, Texas, at the time, the youth killed was her boyfriend. Strangely enough, the accident happened in Douglas' neighborhood. Even stranger, Laura Welch left her home for the fateful encounter "after an incident." And strangest of all, Douglas left his home with his father close behind in another car. The police report is shown. When the responding officers checked a box that said, "Is investigation complete?" they checked it "No"; yet there never was any further investigation. Laura was not charged. As First Lady, she let pass a Reader's Digest story that had false statements about mitigating circumstances (type of vehicle, road conditions, etc.).

Anti-Bushies could do better than fatten the bank balance of this trash merchant.

Maybe she needs to fund another facelift

author by Deepublication date Sun Oct 17, 2004 11:36author address author phone Report this post to the editors

Several people have trashed Ms. Kelly here on this page. This is the only thing republicans can do. We can all predict everything they will write and say. But, after reading about Ms. Kelly, it seems she has written several tell all books. I've noticed that everything she's written has come to be true regarding her other subjects.

Regarding our current President: No matter what any of his loyalists write here, the fact is President Bush supported the Viet Nam war (as did Cheney) and yet did not make the personal commitment for our country to fight it himself. He was here safe at home supporting a war that many of his fellow Americans were risking life and limb fighting. This background makes him unworthy to lead so great a nation as ours. This fact supports the few excerpts from Ms. Kelly's book that are written on this page.

Also, it is clear that he is not an effective leader. He has alienated most of the world. He has divided us here at home. He calls Mr. Kerry a "liberal spender" just as the republicans did President Clinton, and yet these "liberal's" are the ones who managed to deliver us a balanced budget. It appears that Mr. Bush is the big spender. Now Fox "News" is siting Mrs. Kerry's income tax payment loopholes. Someone should force them to tell the truth. These loopholes were made by the republicans and they didn't mind her taking them when she was married to a republican. The fact that we average Americans pay so much more of a percentage than the rich can be laid at the doorstep of the republicans. This is just another example of republican flim flamming. Ms. Kelly's book may in deed reveal more.

After reading things about both Laura and George Bush's pasts, I feel sorry for them both. They are ill suited for the rolls power has blessed them with. But, I feel sorrier still for our country and all those who are dying for the bad decisions made in the White House under this administration.

It is sad, but so very often true, that the most conservative individuals in politics and the media who condemn others for being gay, crooked, and or promiscuous, so often turn out to be guilty of those very things themselves.

'Guilty' of being gay?
Is that a catchphrase of the new angry left?
