Another woman has come forward with allegations that George H.W. Bush groped
her as she posed for a photo with the former president at an event.
Novelist Christina Baker Kline became the third woman this week to make such
allegations, writing in Slate that Bush inappropriately touched her in
April 2014 at a fundraiser for the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family
Literacy. While she was taking a picture with Bush at the event, Kline wrote
, Bush asked: “You wanna know my favorite book?”
“Yes, what is it?” she recalled responding. According to her article:
By now the photographer was readying the shot. My husband stood on one side
of the wheelchair, and I stood on the other. President Bush put his arm
around me, low on my back. His comic timing was impeccable. “David Cop-a-
feel,” he said, and squeezed my butt, hard, just as the photographer
snapped the photo. Instinctively, I swiped his hand away.
