A Man Of Honor? Or A Man Scared?

Well, what do you know? A conservative with morals! Remember those “secret Bush tapes” that the White House was hoping would just go away? You know, the ones where Bush said, “I wouldn’t answer the marijuana questions. You know why? Because I don’t want some little kid doing what I tried.” And the ones where he said he would refuse to answer questions about using LSD, cocaine and marijuana because “I don’t want any kid doing what I tried to do 30 years ago.” Well, the man who did the taping has apparently had a change of heart since allegations arose that he was merely seeking publicity for his book by releasing the tapes. He has turned the tapes over to the White House and is donating all the money from the proceeds of his book to charity. I particularly like the end of that article where Scott McClellan notes that the tapes “are in private hands” and declined any further comment. Boy, that was a close one, eh? Wonder what kind of threats the NeoCons made to Doug Wead to get him to turn the tapes over? I can’t wait to see the next skeleton come out of Bush’s closet. I wonder when the mainstream conservative press will start paying attention to these things? I guess it’s too much to ask since they’re all in the pockets of big business.
