Before I go to bed, I leave you with "The Texas Souffle"

snip/

For much of 1972, the 26-year-old Bush lived, worked and played in Alabama, mostly in Montgomery. He came to town to work for Blount at the urging of his father and with the help of a family friend, GOP political consultant Jimmy Allison of Midland, Texas. And he lived in a two-bedroom, one-bath cottage in Montgomery's historic Cloverdale neighborhood, the furnished home of a 68-year-old widow.

That's what the Smith family remembers most about Bush, how he left their aunt's home damaged, dirty and dumpy.

"He was just a rich kid who had no respect for other people's possessions," said Mary Smith, whose family found damaged walls, broken furnishings and a chandelier destroyed after Bush left the house. A bill sent to collect the damages went unpaid, the family said.

Archibald, a Blount relative by marriage, said he believes Bush's social side interfered with his job. He said he remembers many times when Bush would come to the Montgomery office late and leave early. He'd tell stories about his drinking the night before, like a frat boy bragging to his brothers. "I just found it strange that a guy in his mid-20s would feel comfortable enough to talk about that," Archibald said.

Several weeks after Archibald went to work for Blount as a volunteer in September 1972, Allison told him the campaign was having trouble getting materials out to the counties. Allison told Archibald to take over the job, one that Archibald said Bush wasn't doing. That's where Bush got the nickname "the Texas Souffle," Archibald said, from some of the volunteers who thought he looked good on the outside but didn't have much inside.

February 2004 article from the Birmingham News

That was out in February?!!

Yes, I read this back in February. My first thought after reading it, was that he has just done to America what he did to that rental house. Trash and run.
The fact that he's in the White House is an indication that there is something very wrong in America. He got through the cracks of Democracy. Hmm, where's my can of Pres-B-Gone...


I am really getting addicted to DU. We all think alike here. Too much. It's really fantastic.

You asking about it is what provoked me to look for it! :toast:

You need to send this to the Kerry campaign. :-)
