| 79. Fortunate Son author didn't sound suicidal, but somehow... |
|
quit moving and talking anyhow. When I heard this interview in 2003, I said wow, W's cooked. Then at the end Goodman said Hatfied was found dead of an apparent suicide in 2001: Democracy Now! Premieres the Full Interview with Bush Biographer J.H. Hatfield Who Died 2 Years Ago of an Alleged Suicide Amidst Controversy Over his Book Fortunate Son Today we play an interview that we have held for over three years. It involves allegations of President Bush, drugs, obstruction of justice and corporate scandal. It raises questions about why Bush’s driver license number was changed. In the book Fortunate Son: George W. Bush and the Making of an American President author J.H. Hatfield charges that President Bush was arrested in 1972 for cocaine possession and that Bush’s father George Sr. used his political connections to have his son’s record expunged. http://www.democracynow.org/2003/8/11/democracy_now_pre...
