I would imagine he thinks "since helping that loud mouth kid from the White House's mother raise money for her election." Like many old-style Texas dino Democrats he often supports GOP candidates. That was the least interesting and new part of the story and Dan Rather did not do an effective interview. Barnes has stated since 1999 he helped Bush bypass a waiting list and get in. The Bush carefully parsed response has always been "no one from *my family*" talked to Barnes. The big news was the apparent documents from Bush's superior in the Texas Air National Guard detailing Bush disobeying orders, ceasing attending required meetings, pressure from his superiors to white wash and sugar coat Bush reviews.
