No I haven't read it but it does look interesting. I'd be curious to know what he says and if he really knew his place in the scheme of things.

Yes. I saw a video years ago where all this was laid out.

Speaking of cocaine connections did anyone else catch the unbelievable Hillary quote last week? That W made her "proud to be an American". The Bushes and the Clintons are joined at the hip when it comes to big time cocaine ops. Never-the- less, that statement shocked me and if she runs it will come back to haunt her.

::pullhairout::::headbang::;;okay::

EDIT: I checked the HRC quote. The whole GWB thing is found only on right wing blogs. Hmmm. Wonder why? Here's what she really said:

Because of PEPFAR, the president's emergency program for AIDS relief. Whether you agree or disagree with a lot of what else he did, and I disagree with a lot of it, I am proud to be an American when I go to sub-Saharan Africa and people say I want to thank President Bush and the United States for, you know, helping us fight HIV/AIDS. You know, we spend a lot of money and a lot of time and effort trying to be influential around the world when I think we would be able to succeed more effectively if we were clearer about who we are and what we stand for and the values that we hold, obviously tempered by experience and the competing interests that we face.

Thanks Lauren. My husband saw the headline probably on Drudge while we were away on vacation in Nova Scotia and did not click on the video. And Drudge is about as right wing as they come. ::headbang::
