| | Bush's Drug Hypocrisy |
 | | And Bush's biggest character flaw is his inability to draw a capacity for humility, compassion and forgiveness from his own experiences. |
 | | This time last year, Bush's "youthful indiscretions" became a public issue when the Democratic Party's leader in the Senate, Tom Daschle, complained that the then Republican front-runner was being given an easy ride by the press over the "legitimate question" of his alleged use of cocaine in the past. |
 | | The following day, Bush shifted the boundary back farther, stating that, at the time his father was inaugurated as president in 1989, he would have passed the background check that was then in force, which required a statement that the subject of the check had not used drugs in the previous 15 years. |
