Although he may have not been the best president ever, he Yes. See _Spy_ magazine's 1988 issue with the article on "1001 reasons not to vote for George Bush." Number 1: he cheats on his wife. The article named names and circumstances; the story was widely known among journalists but I don't know if anyone else published it. Others included lying to Congress about Iran-Contra, his fake arranged drug deal in the park across from the White House so that he could pump up the "War on Drugs" by holding up a bag of crack on national TV. Odd, since the CIA--which Bush used to head--helped introduce crack to this country in the first place (http://www.sjmercury.com/drugs/). >certainly wasn't the worst, and from all indications he is an upstanding, >moral US citizen.
