George Bush, aka the 'jock sniffer'

George Bush, aka the 'jock sniffer'
Sep. 26, 2006 -- According to individuals who investigated George W. Bush's stint in the 147th Fighter Group of the Texas Air National Guard (TANG), the GOP's top dirty tricksters, notably Karl Rove and Roger Stone, interceded to derail the investigation and, instead, have CBS focus on Bush's faxed, scanned, and Xeroxed original TANG records -- which were later hyped by the right-wing media as fakes.
The reason for the GOP's concern was that the investigation was getting dangerously close to exposing Bush's suspected homosexual activity with other members of his TANG unit. Given the times and culture of the early 1970s, investigators were surprised to discover Bush's frequent association with an abundant number of gays in the unit, which was nicknamed the "Champagne Unit." Bush's homosexuality is the bête noire of Bush's past for GOP political operatives, precisely because of the anti-gay stance of the Republican right and its Christian fundamentalist base.
In 1986, the Bush family sent George W. Bush to El Paso's Worthy Creations, a Christian gay conversion center. From that time on, Bush became a tool of the Christian right and a self-hating homosexual. The investigation of Bush's gay activities in the TANG unit would have unraveled Bush's new "straight" persona. The GOP went to battle stations to prevent Bush's past from being resurrected.
Bush's alleged homosexuality in college was hinted at in Kitty Kelley's massive biography of the Bush family, The Family: The Real Story of the Bush Dynasty, which was released at about the same time as CBS 60 Minutes was investigating Bush's National Guard stint. In the case of Kelley's book and the gay charge, the criticism came not from the GOP operatives but from their allies in the corporate media, including the Washington Post's Howard Kurtz, who is married to a GOP operative. While Bush attended all-boys Andover prep school (nicknamed "bend over"), Bush, not able to make it as an athlete, instead became a male cheerleader. At Yale, Bush, according to Kelley, had a "special relationship" (i.e., gay relationship) with Victor Ashe, his room mate and fellow cheerleader. Ashe, a former Mayor of Knoxville, is now Bush's ambassador to Poland. At the Delta Kappa Epsilon frat house, Bush became known as "a jock sniffer."Poster comment:Originally posted elsewhere by "Always Right"

To: Jhoffa_Madsen the moron just months ago claimed Bush was having an affair with Rice. What an idiot he is and anyone who believes the tripe he attempts to pass off as news is just as bad.

In a 1995 David Dunlap article in the NYT, Log Cabin member W. Scott Thompson was quoted as saying
that gays should feel welcome in the party, "given that the founder was gay." Indeed, Abe has been
called the original Log Cabin Republican.

It doesn't matter if the TANG report is real or not. Bush behavior comes across as the closet sexual
hedonist, doing it with either sex. In this sense he is more deviant than Bill Clinton.
His policies are suggestive as well. They resemble all too much those of Nazi Germany, and if what
has been said of Hitler and other high-ranking officials of his regime is true, they were closet
cases as well. In fact many genocide-oriented rulers were considered sexual deviants. Being in the
closet is worse than being outright, because being in denial or hiding it from everyone can
seriously affect behavior and objectivity.

No arguement on Madsen being a little over the top.. I've never really followed him.
However, there's smoke here and possibly some fire. Remember Gannon's unusual access to the administration, despite his completely illegitimate press "credentials" gig as a high level and publically advertised male prostitute and spotty job history which in no way qualified him for the post.
Alot of what Madsen says is true. He was a weirdo male cheerleader, there are persistant rumors, allegations, etc. Frankly, for a party that tries to sell family values, they've got allot of faggots hanging around. You gotta wonder sometimes.
And so far as the Condi thing goes, she DID call Dubya her "husband" That's a very odd mistake for someone in her position to make.

Nope. Just weird that it got reported. People in power say the weirdest things.

I've worked with, literally, dozens and dozens of women over the years.. Some almost intamately.
You probably have also.
I can tell you, for a fact, that I never accidentally called one of them my wife.

Yes, but have any of them ever called you their husband?
Women have a habit of shutting their minds down during conversation.

To the point that a US Secretary of State.. A woman who could, quite literally, temporarily wreck the stock market, cause an international relations disaster, or make nuclear weapons go hot with one, single, solitary misstatement, calls the most powerful manin the world her "husband"
?

Sorry, at the moment, I'm mentally incapable of giving this subject and your post the intelligent
reply they deserve.
For five long years we've been bitching about the wreck the Bush administration has been making of
U.S. foreign policy so why should Rice's behavior surprise us?
Also, I've never heard (or heard of) any individual accidentally describe their lover as their
husband.

True..
Regardless of the potential implications of her goof, it is but one tiny boil on the festered ass of society.
