That's what matters.

Is that really what matters? GWB was also arrested for DUI in 1976,
but was lucky enough to have not killed anybody. Is GWB less guilty
of reckless behavior simply because he got lucky and *didn't* kill
someone? Are GWB's alcoholism and drug use to be criticized on par
with Kennedy's, or is there a double standard here? Unless luck is a
valid criterion for the office, GWB is as unfit to be president as Ted
Kennedy by your standard.

Laura (Welch) Bush ran a stop sign at age 17 and killed a classmate.
Does that really matter?

Whoaaaa. Seem to have struck a nerve in that sensitive tooth.

Ted Kennedy is a spoiled brat. Always has been, always will be. He
had a history of getting into trouble because of his drinking.
Remember the time he and Chris Dodd broke picture frames in a DC
eatery. Both blasted out of there minds. GWB has no such history.
Yeah, he got caught DUI. So did Mark Bowen. Remember when Teddy
Bear took his *son* and *nephew* out drinking in Florida and the
nephew was brought up on rape charges? Some uncle there! Kenney was
married to the sweetest woman you could ever meet, Joan. He drove her
to drink and today she is a helpless alchoholic. He got his marriage
annulled after 20+ years. What a hypocrite. Take a look at his
swollen gin-blossom face. He is a drunkard. Bush is not.
