10. Nope, probably a rolled up 100-dollar bill.
Just for the boast of it.

2. Is that the Jennifer Fitzgerald thing?
Makes me wonder...

Wasn't it the late, lamented Spy Magazine that first wrote about that?

6. yes... it was an open secret, supposedly
Edited on Fri Sep-10-04 04:54 PM by npincus
but the press exercised restraint it never bothered with when it came to Clinton's extra-curricular activities, or shall we call it "the suck heard round the world".

I have the Larry Flynt publication of Republican hyprocrites and their assorted love affairs, etc. (the results of his offer to pay $1,000,000 to anyone who could offer up proof that a member of Clinton's Inquisition had strayed)... and there was a nice, juicy feature on Poppy Bush & Jennifer (sitting in a tree...K-I-S-S-I-N-G...). The article recounted a rendevous set up at an ambassador's residence in Geneva... oooooooooooh, how romantic!

7. Ironically, it was Linda Tripp who often told people about Bush's affair
with Fitzgerald when she was working at the WH back then. She was said to be disgusted by that type of behavior by a president.

11. LMAO. Here's the story from...
... the clowns at newsmax. Sometimes it's not good to be king.

Why the Bushes Will Never Hire Linda Tripp

13. I'll give Tripp this: she's consistent and no hypocrit!
She kinda reminds me of the definition of a "puritan": someone who hates someone else who's getting more sex than s/he is.

17. Joe Conason
Joe Conason was the one who wrote the story. He says that as far as he could tell, there was no truth to it but the magazine went with a misleading headline that made it appear as though his reporting actually said the rumors were true.

I'm guessing, though, that there may be other sources of information on the alleged affair. I know there was a book that made a passing reference to it.

suppressed when he and his mistress got into an accident - bumming Nancy Reagan out over Daddy Bush being unable to clean up his own Mess.

The lady was Daddy Bush's travel aide - Barb knew all about it - went on a long time.

When I was in DC the code word was to refer to her as the lady on K street.

But her name is out there these days.

14. "Barb knew all about it"
i can believe that. she probably had sex four times (or was inseminated four times without GHWB's involvement.)

a great relief for BOTH, I have no doubt.

5. International Herald Tribune - witness backs Kitty Kelley's version
Sharon Bush's ex publicist who was present at the 4-hour lunch between Kitty Kelley and Sharon Bush supports Kelley's version of what was said. And it was interesting seeing Sharon Bush's attorney this morning on TV. The first thing out of his mouth was that it had been Sharon Bush's understanding that her story told over lunch to Kitty Kelley would be "off the record".

http://www.iht.com/articles/538141.html

"......Lou Colasuonno, a former publicist for Sharon Bush, confirmed that he was the third party present at the lunch and contradicted Sharon Bush's denial. "I have not seen the book; I have only seen news reports," he said. "According to what I have seen, what has been reported, I would not dispute that." ....."

8. you can't blame Sharon Bush... she's probably
afraid she'll end up in a lake wearing a pair of concrete boots.

16. oh my god- the Chimp is a pedophile!
seriously, I wonder if he broke any laws in the state of Texas (is that where he did the deed?).

Maybe he needs to register as a Sex Offender.

18. Poppy Bush gossip from the 1000 Dead vigil in Union Square:
Met a woman (first former wife of a guy I had a crush on at 18) who had a friend who worked for the State Department in an embassy. When Pres. Poppy paid a visit, it was this friend who was charged with finding quarters for the girlfriend.

Imagine. Poppy wasn't faithful to Barbara.

20. But it is hard to say the word "torrid" in the same sentence with
"George H.W. Bush." I am trying to imagine Poppy humping his brains out with.... anybody. Eww.
