6. CNNN and Woodruff are making me puke - buckets!

God I'm sick. Inside politics is a Bush j0lly-good orgy. Praising his trip to Europe. How wonderful it is he's kissing Chirac and that the French-bashing is over. Kisssing is on the march! Bill Schneider says the red states are getting redder and that Democrats are fucked forever. And the tapes - the TAPES - THE TAPES. Will they hurt president Bush? Screw you Judy - with your help we'll all know the answer to that. The "blogosphere" segment is coming up. Betcha Gannongate wont even be mentioned. It will all be about the suicide. C'mon - surprise me Judy.

In Secretly Taped Conversations, Glimpses of the Future President
By DAVID D. KIRKPATRICK

In the last several weeks, that friend, Doug Wead, an author and former aide to Mr. Bush's father, disclosed the tapes' existence to a reporter and played about a dozen of them.

Variously earnest, confident or prickly in those conversations, Mr. Bush weighs the political risks and benefits of his religious faith, discusses campaign strategy and comments on rivals. John McCain "will wear thin," he predicted. John Ashcroft, he confided, would be a "very good Supreme Court pick" or a "fabulous" vice president. And in exchanges about his handling of questions from the news media about his past, Mr. Bush appears to have acknowledged trying marijuana.

Mr. Wead said he recorded the conversations because he viewed Mr. Bush as a historic figure, but he said he knew that the president might regard his actions as a betrayal. As the author of a new book about presidential childhoods, Mr. Wead could benefit from any publicity, but he said that was not a motive in disclosing the tapes.

The White House did not dispute the authenticity of the tapes or respond to their contents. Trent Duffy, a White House spokesman, said, "The governor was having casual conversations with someone he believed was his friend." Asked about drug use, Mr. Duffy said, "That has been asked and answered so many times there is nothing more to add."
