Defending Bush’s Silence: Turning [to] Texas Blue
Southern Methodist University faces trial this fall over a lawsuit challenging the University’s George W. Bush Library land acquisition. The former president has been ordered to testify on his knowledge of SMU’s dealings, but is appealing.
In preparation for the case SMU has hired a prominent Democratic lawyer whose law firm funded the campaign of the judge hearing the case. Her late husband devised Democratic party building plans benefiting the judge’s election as well.
Run Silent, Drill deep
Bush meanwhile is harming any defense that he’s too busy to be deposed in the SMU lawsuit. He recently found the time to travel to West Texas to accept his coveted membership in Midland’s Petroleum Museum Hall of Fame, commemorating his various failed oil patch schemes prior to becoming president.
