I also remember that he bought a little doll with an exagerated penis, and appartently he thought that was super funny exposing it to members of his wife and entourage. I've seen this before where the right-wing jokesters (an oxymoron? or just plain morons? - okay PJ O'Rourke is cool) who have attributed some of the many Quayle gaffs and goofs and attributed them to the current veep. Oh yeah...the obvious reason why "the media" keep on harping on Bush about his coke addict days is because he's never really directly addressed it, or his daddy's help in getting him into the Texas Nat'l Guard. The right-wing super patriots can call Clinton a draft dodger all you want, but he was cagey enough to do it all by himself. Meanwhile, Junior had to get a boost from his daddy on every rung of the ladder that he's climbed. Somehow, the super patriots like to shut-up and salute when it's "their boy."
