Wow. I just found out how Laura Bu$h killed her boyfriend.
Amazing "coincidence". I had no idea that she ran a stop sign at and smashed into his doorless rig at high speed, throwing him from the car and breaking his neck instantly. And she didn't even get charged with anything.

If she was a Mexican farm worker, Texas would have probably tried, convicted, and executed her for murder. Lucky for her she was a local.

Geez, the Bu$h family has such a dark history that it makes the "Addams Family" look like a paragon of "family values". At least the "Addams Family" didn't collaborate with Hitler like Prescott Bu$h, Georgies' grandfather, did.

9. Hard to say. Probably
somewhere between 100 million and 2 billion to one.

16. Two options.
1. Envision a "what the hell just happened" moment.

2. Envision a woman in a jealous rage center-punching her boyfriend's car.


Do you believe in coincidences?

(The odds are probably more in the 1:10000 range, depending on the size of the town and licensed drivers. Still long odds)

2. She was a Prostitute and a Stripper as well in her college days
Edited on Tue Aug-31-04 08:32 PM by NEOBuckeye
Some other DUer posted about that a few days ago. Supposedly, her past was a sore spot between King WASP/Poppy and Dubya, when Pickles and Dubya got engaged.

How did he know? Must have been keeping a file on her at the CIA.

11. Actually, and this is funny, there is a place in Arkansas, in the border
town of Fort Smith the only bordello listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was at one time Miss Laura's bordello or Miss Laura's Social Club. It is now a museum and an interesting one at that. I have been there.

7. "The hurt was all over her face,"
says a friend who often called at the Welch household in the days after Douglas' death.
"It made Laura realize every act has consequences that cannot be escaped."

Maybe she married W to punish herself? I mean can you imagine anything worse?

15. Laura was wrong ...

She DID escape. And lucky for her. If she'd been convicted of murder, she could have been Carla Faye Tucker.

Of course, coming from a wealthy family she never could have been sentenced to death. And even then, I'm sure ole George would find it in his heart 10 sizes too small to grant a single death sentence commutation for a fellow child of wealth and privelege.

THAT would be a great question for the President.

"Would you have commuted Laura's sentence if she had been convicted of murder 1 for killing her ex-boyfriend????"

25. Commuting her sentence
The Gov. of Texas does not have the power to commute sentences.

10. This is classic.....
"After all, what is a Republican, but a traitorous, cock-obsessed psychopath, specializing in being an apologist for their favorite child torture butcher, Laura “Threat to National Security” Bush. If George and Laura aren’t murdering children, they simply are not happy!"

12. Bush-Hinckley connection is yet another all too weird coincidence.

Bush Son Had Dinner Plans With Hinckley Brother Before Shooting
The Associated Press Domestic News

March 31, 1981, Tuesday, PM cycle

The family of the man charged with trying to assassinate President Reagan is acquainted with the family of Vice President George Bush and had made large contributions to his political campaign, the Houston Post reported today.

Scott Hinckley, brother of John W. Hinckley Jr., who allegedly shot Reagan, was to have dined tonight in Denver at the home of Neil Bush, one of the vice president's sons.

...

In 1978, Neil served as campaign manager for his brother, George W. Bush, the vice president's oldest son, who made an unsuccessful bid for Congress. Neil lived in Lubbock throughout much of 1978, where John Hinckley lived from 1974 through 1980.

...

On Monday, Neil Bush said he did not know if he had ever met 25-year-old John Hinckley.

...

George W. Bush said he was unsure whether he had met John W. Hinckley.


____________________


So, the Bush family knew the family of the guy who shot the man that Bush 41 served under. What are the odds? Astronomical?

Ain't that weird how Bush family members show up in the oddest places?

20. I bet most people don't even know about the Bush-Hinckley connection.
I bet that less than 10% of Americans know about the Bush-Hinckley connection.

23. No, unlucky would mean
they would actually be paying consequences for all the things that just "happen" to them. My vote--evil.

14. Pretty interesting huh????


Laura has more combat kills than George does.

I want to see if some reporter has the balls and asks if she ever prays to god for forgiveness for killing her boyfriend.

Seriously though, if you want to commit murder in this country, the weapon that will keep you FARTHEST away from jail is a car. Thats why road bikers have to be such nice people. They're so easy to murder without legal consequence.

18. I always found it odd
that this happened either right in her home town or right next to it. Who knew stop signs just have a way of appearing over night so you don't expect to see one at a later date.
I guess republicans, even baby to be republicans find stop signs optional.

22. I always imagine if it had been Hillary --
Rove would have made certain that the event defined her in the eyes of the public. The press would have flogged the story endlessly. No American alive would lack knowledge of every detail. Hillary would not be a U.S. Senator -- Bill would probably never have been President.

27. A school/class mate of Laura gives his version
Originally published here, the author Rex Weyler put a longer, edited version up here.

In the two Bartcop / chilidbutcher articles (they appear to be identical, reposts) there's a reference to the "unique" headlight configuration of Michael Douglas' car, a 1962 Chevrolet Corvair sedan. Unfortunately, they don't include images of that model, so I tried to find a few myself.

Links to pictures showing what the front of a 1962 Chevrolet Corvair sedan (more or less) looks like:

Looks like the headlight configuration is pretty much easy to recognize. Given that the articles quoted in the Bartcop / childkiller articles clearly indicate that the intersection was in clear vue, and that cars approaching from the direction that Michael Douglas came from could be easily seen from the direction Laura came from, she didn't merely jump a stop sign, she cannot have missed that car approaching.

Note that Rex Weyler had an accident, jumping a stop sign and slamming into another car but without fatalities, on another intersection in the same town, just a few months after Laura murdered Michael Douglas (without getting as much as a ticket!) and lo and behold - Rex is the one who got a ticket.

According to one article, Laura was probably knocked up or thinking that she was by Michael Douglas - but he refused to marry her.

I'd like to know why her vehicular homicide hasn't been investigated. It's serious stuff - if proven true, we have not only an alcoholic and coke snorting guy, but one who's married to a murderess, both criminals who got off the hook scot-free occupying the Office of the President of the United States.

How can we even contemplate a couple of outlaws -- not only with drugs and alcohol problems but also directly responsible for killing people -- in the WH?

What kind of "morality" is it that the far rightwingers so fondly parade around?
