To celebrate Jenna and Barbara's graduations, President Bush has come out in favor of eliminating preferential treatment in college admissions for the children of wealthy, connected alumni. I wonder what, if any impact, this will have, as they are the only people who can afford to go to Yale anyway. Nevertheless, before your Democrat domestic help makes snide remarks under their breath, it is worth pointing out that this only serves to underscore Mr. Bush's consistency in all matters. After all, he waited until after his girlfriend had an abortion to come out for banning abortions; he waited until after his DUI(s) and his position as Governor entitled him to a chauffeur, to come out for stronger laws against drunk drivers; and he waited until after his last cocaine binge (some, we are told, 30-odd years ago) to come out in favor of stronger prison terms for people who indulge in significantly less Peruvian blue flake during their twenty "lost years." No flip-flopper here!
