Verification needed: Bush's walk out
In July 2004, Bush was alleged to have walked out on the media after being questioned on his relationship with Ken Lay. However, the only source I could find so far is this:

http://www.capitolhillblue.com/cgi-bin/artman/exec/view.cgi?archive=33&num=4805

Unfortunately, this source has not been proven to be reliable. Can there be any independent verification of this...and please no sites that got this information from capitalhillblues.

3. Here's an even better link
It actually diagnoses the whole event and questions if it happened. Apparently, there is little to go on (I know, not what you wanted to hear!). But, apparently a French newspaper also captioned an AP photo showing Bush walking off stage.

Very, very strange. But, it all goes back to the question - If the media doesn't report it, does that mean it didn't happen????

4. But that's a CHB source, and the photo isn't necessarily connected (nt)

6. Actually, if you read the entire page.....
all of the mentions to the event in MSM are discussed. They include the Telegraph article, the CHB article, and the AP photos.

Who knows if it actually happened! :shrug:

5. Not a strong topic for me -- Is this a correct interpretation?
We know Bernard Ebbers of WorldCom got the book thrown at him for fraud, and while Ken Lay is in a similar situation, he is likely going to catch a break? So if you're part of the Bush cabal you can break the law left and right and get away with it. Further evidence of the fascist regime.
