Well, no guesswork needed here. Barack Obama wrote about his past drug use in his memoirs. Do I think it will hurt his chances? Nope. Not a single bit. Why do I even bring it up? Because I'd like every single person who tried to crucify Bush for alleged cocaine use to now do the same to Obama. Riiiiiight. That's what I thought. That's what sucks about politics. You have to be very careful when you play the "Gotcha!" game. The democrats had Bush as a "hard partying" kind of guy. Their spin on Obama? That due to his racial diversity, he was confused and had to figure things out. So, how do all the successful racially diverse Americans that didn't self medicate themselves take this? I would be insulted. They obviously didn't have to do cocaine to figure themselves out? They have Bush drunk off his ass at a frat party snorting coke and trying to get laid. Obama however climbed to the top of a mountain and did his coke so he could reflect on the meaning of life and how he fit into this cruel world. Awww. Gee Willackers, when you put it like that I guess it's ok. I thought he was hangin' with bitches and ho's listening to Rick James trying to get his groove on with the honeys. My bad. When the allegations came out against Bush - it was headline news for days. Not too many people are even aware of this issue with Obama. Why? The liberal media already covered it when he ran his first campaign so there is no need to bring it up again. Um, ok. I'm not passing judgement on anyone or suggesting that you can't be president in your 40's or 50's based on something you did 20 years earlier. All I'm asking for is equal treatment by the same news outlets that went after Bush during his presidential bid. Fox News should lead with this story for a week, maybe they already did, I try not to watch the news. If you want unbiased news, read The Economist.
