Help with questions about Laura Bush posted on another board. |
|
Just ran across this on another board, and I thought someone here might know the answers to the poster's questions:
"I'm getting emails (two in the past week) saying that Laura Bush killer her fiance (or lover depending on which email) in a car crash. This is old news, but the NEW news I'm hearing (and which I have questions about) concerns Laura Bush's lies (?) about the incident. Does anyone know:
1. Did Laura Bush give interviews during her husband's early political life stating that she was not driving, and this has been proved to be false?
2. Did Laura Bush give interviews during her husband's early political life stating that the roads on the day of the fatal crash were rainy and slick, and this has been proved to be false?
3. Did Laura Bush give interviews during her husband's early political life stating that her boyfriend was riding in an open jeep, and this has been proved to be false because he was riding in a 1962 Corvair Sedan?
4. Did Laura Bush give interviews during her husband's early political life stating that Michael Douglas (the victim) was not her ex-boyfriend, and this has been proved to be false?
5. Did Laura Bush give interviews during her husband's early political life stating that she did not know who her victim was until she got to the hospital, and this has been proved to be false because Michael Douglas's father was following his son's car and was on the scene seconds after the crash and Laura Bush saw and acknowledged her ex-boyfriend's body, her ex-boyfriend’s car, and her ex-boyfriend's father at the scene of the fatality?
I'm not sure if any of this matters, but both recent emails make two points that ring true to me.
First point: because this incident happened in west Texas, if Laura Bush had been of Mexican descent, she would still be in jail today, but she got preferential treatment and was not even indicted because of her family connections.
Second point: if Hillary Clinton had this in her background, the media would have been reporting on this all day, every day throughout the Clinton presidency but the media has given the Bush presidency a pass.
Does anyone know if all this is true?"
Does anyone have a fact-based response to this post that I could relay?

2. Snopes has NO answers... |
|
Why was there no citation? No sobriety test? No investigation? Why the cover - up on the police reports and incident reports under FOIA? Why are they denying that they were boyfriend / girlfriend weeks before (as the attourney responsible for releasing the police report stated at the time? Why do they not look into allegations that Pickles told him she was pregnant and he dumped her?
Why no investigation of her lies? That she didn't see the car? It was at a crossing of a long stretch of road where the view is unobstructed and you can see a car leaving her boyfriend's driveway all the way down to the intersection...She said he was driving a Jeep, when it was a 1962 Corvair - she knew the car well...Why did she lie and say she didn't know whom she had killed? His father had followed him and was on the scene seconds after the "accident." She knew BOTH cars and the FATHER....
What hypocrisy!!! If Hillary had done anything even close to this bad, she would have been burnt at the stake!!!!

4. Snopes seems to support the notion that Laura Bush has given conflicting |
|
accounts of this incident. On the one hand, Snopes seems to confirm that Laura has stated that she did not know who her victim was until she got to the hospital and Snopes also seems to confirm that Michael Douglas's father was following his son's car and was on the scene seconds after the crash. So, did Laura not know who she killed at the scene as she claims? Did she fail to acknowledge Mr. Douglas (the father of an ex-boyfriend) at the scene of the fatality? If I had a fatal crash that killed my ex-lover, and her father was driving behind my ex-lover in the car, I cannot imagine any circumstance where I would not be made aware that it was my ex-lover dead on the road.
Don't you just know that if this was something in THK's background, we hear about it nonstop on all the news programs.
