Laura Bush killed someone. That’s one of the biggest stories within the new Laura Bush book, “Spoken from the Heart.” When she was 17, Laura Bush killed a man in a auto wreck although it wasn't her fault. Laura, their entourage, and her husband, President George W. Bush, got sick during a trip to Germany, and guess what? They got poisoned. Laura Bush's book also tells the world the former president's wife was hurt by Democrats called her husband names.
Laura Bush and pay days
The Laura Bush book is billed by amazon.com as an "intimate portrait of the first lady." ”Spoken from the Heart” will be released in early May, but the New York Times managed to score a copy from a bookstore. Laura isn't the first within the Bush administration that cashed in on book deals. Scribner, an imprint of Simon and Schuster Inc. , outbid many different publishers in an auction for rights to her story. The Huffington Post says that rival publishers doubted much of the details Bush wants to share is the exact same that the public wants to read; they also seem to question whether her advance matched the $ 8 million in instant cash Hillary Clinton scooped up for “Living History."
Killing a guy was Laura Bush
The New York Times review said the Laura Bush book devotes considerable pages to a automobile wreck that killed a star athlete at her high school. In this world where Vietnam war veterans are Swift-boated and candidates—even the Republicans—get to be slandered with lies about fathering illegitimate black children, it is such a wonder that journalists who must have known about Laura Bush's fatal car accident long ago never reported it. In November 1963, she ran a stop sign with her dad’s Chevy Impala and killed Michael Douglas.
Laura Bush automobile accident details
In Laura Bush's book, she says she was troubled with guilt after the crash according to the New York Times. Because her parents didn't want her to, she didn't reach out to the Douglas family or attend his funeral. She also says the victim was driving an unsafe vehicle, it was dark, and also the stop sign was too small: "It was sporty and sleek, and it was also the car that Ralph Nader made famous in his book Unsafe at Any Speed," as outlined by the Laura Bush book.
The Laura Bush book is red meat for Republicans
Laura Bush throws red meat to the Republican base by calling out Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic speaker of the House of Representatives, for calling George W. Bush "an incompetent leader." She also is caught reacting to comments about W by Harry Reid, the Democratic leader in the Senate, who is quoted within the Laura Bush book calling her husband a "loser" and a "liar.". She comes across as whiner considering the current belligerent stance of the Republican party:
"The comments were uncalled for and graceless," she writes. "While a president's political opponents, as well as his supporters, are entitled to make what they see as legitimate criticisms, and while our national debates should be spirited, these particular worlds revealed the petty and parochial nature of some who serve in Congress."
Laura Bush book: best of
Yet an additional tidbit within the Laura Bush book the New York Times considered of worth contain her suggestion that W’s universally ridiculed fly-over of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina was in the best interests of the victims and aid workers on the ground. Believers of GOP can be pulling out credit cards for the chance to read about the plot to poison the president. For a G8 Summit on a trip to Germany, everybody became bed ridden and sick. Although the Secret Service investigated a possibility of poisoning, doctors said it was only a virus.
