“Barbara and I are so sorry we can’t be there for your Inauguration on January 20th,” the former president wrote in a note dated Jan. 10. “My doctor says if I sit outside in January, it will likely put me six feet under. Same for Barbara. So I guess we’re stuck in Texas.”
“I want you to know that I wish you the very best as you begin this incredible journey of leading our great country,” he continued. “If I can ever be of help, please let me know.”

Still find it unbelievable that the guy was in WW-II. How many still around that can say that.
nice message ... with class.
“Looking forward to a speedy recovery for George and Barbara Bush, both hospitalized. Thank you for your wonderful letter!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 18, 2017”
Trump is SUCH AN IDIOT - VIOLATING ALL PROTOCOLS. He should NEVER be let into the White House.
HE IS TOTALLY UNQUALIFIED. No president-elect has EVER made such a horrible mistake!!!
What did he do? He put George Bush’s name before Barbara’s.
Prayers going up for your recovery, Riley. May the Lord bless and heal you.
My best to you.
I like the simple, personal style of that letter.
Thanks Buttons, but this is kind of a one-way thing.
Um, you forgot the /sarc tag. (Sadly, some people esp newbies have a poor /sarc detector.)
Could not agree more. As in I agree 100%.
I finally understood when I was hospitalized for Chest Pains (false alarm) in 2010 and I was being bothered every 30 minutes with something, I was glad to get home for some rest.
So I believe H told W to go as the Bushs’ need to show the flag supporting the President and the country.
This sounds like a good, believable excuse.
I hope both GHW Bush and his wife will get better soon.
Yet though I liked him, when he said “our New World Order” I liked to have thrown up, and given the pussyfooting around they’ve done with the Clintons and obambas, I rather feel he may be somehow architect of our misery.
Yea, I know. When it’s REALLY OBVIOUS, I don’t bother.
I don’t know if he is still coming but if they want to attend Trump should sent Trump Force One to pick him up so he arrives in time for ceramoney and send them home on Airforce One so ge can be with his parents
My wife was hospitalized with severe pneumonia. She was bothered every 30 minutes like you 24 hours a day for 5 days.
When she complained about it to the doctor he told her a hospital is a great place to get well, but a terrible place to get any rest.
They could always send JEB! Hehe!!!!
... it can't be denied that they love their country.
It wasn’t too classy to announce his vote for herr Hitlery. Bush one was a big globalist and although he outclassed klintoon and Obama, that’s not saying much. His read my lips no new taxes was a disaster and at heart he was a NWO globalist CIA guy.
That being said, if you really care about bushie #1, you should hope that he repents to God for the damage he has done to the country and world by promoting globalist interests. Who knows, he might repent and accept Christ at the end here.
I really can’t understand why politicians have to be put on such a pedestal. Perhaps it’s because, they have received their reward on earth, and their next existence will be much less comfortable.
This is fair and I don’t hold it against him. He’s an old man and he’s really sick right now.
