Bush-Nixon comparisons don't bode well for '04, National Review, December 10, 2003: "I believe that President Bush is in danger of creating a perception about himself that may prove equally hard to eradicate: It is the view that he's 'Nixonian,' having an approach toward politics and policy paralleling Richard Nixon's. It is characterized by a willingness to subordinate everything to one's re-election -- to say and do anything to advance this goal, with no concern whatsoever for the long-term consequences."

2004

• Bush 'paid for abortion'. President Bush faced an extraordinary claim last night that he once paid for a girl-friend to have an abortion, Daily Telegraph, February 18, 2004: "The pro-life president arranged for the procedure in the early 1970s, according to porn publisher Larry Flynt. ... The controversial publisher of Hustler magazine told the New York Daily News he will make the claims in a book coming out this summer. ... 'This story has got to come out,' said 61-year-old Flynt. 'There's a lot of hypocrisy in the White House about this whole abortion issue. I've talked to the woman's friends. ... 'I've tracked down the doctor who did the abortion, I tracked down the Bush people who arranged for the abortion I got the story nailed.' ... But Flynt would not disclose if he plans to name the woman."
• Margaret Kimberley, George W. Bush: The Master of Low Expectations, Black Commentator, February 19, 2004: "When President Bush sat down for an interview with Tim Russert on Meet the Press he single-handedly proved that affirmative action is a bad thing. George W. Bush is the poster child for affirmative action."
