Barbara Bush reveals close friendship: ‘I love Bill Clinton’
BizPac Review ^ | January 20, 2014 | Tom Tillison

Sarah Palin is known to say that America is governed by a “permanent political class,” and recent comments by former first lady Barbara Bush about how she views former President Bill Clinton lends credence to that point of view.

Before Bush’s recent health issues, she sat down for an interview with C-SPAN, part of a series of profiles on America’s first ladies, Investor’s Business Daily reported.

In a candid conversation, Mrs. Bush reveals the bond of friendship that has formed between former President George H.W. Bush, herself and Clinton, whom she said visits “every summer.”

While noting that they do not agree politically, Mrs. Bush seems to almost excuse some of Clinton’s more questionable behavior by stressing that his father “was not around.”

“I think that he thinks of George a little bit like the father he didn’t have,” she said. “And he’s very loving to him and I really appreciate that.”(continue)

So she loves a man who sexually harassed an intern in the white house?

And got away with it.

There’s just something endearing about a lying rapist.

“Hate?” “Crap?” What is this, Daily Kos? So you’re not aware that she’s pro-abortion? That she agreed with Michelle Obama a few days ago? She wanted the ERA? She’s pro-amnesty? And on and on.... Might want to do a little research, pal. BTW, I voted for Both Bushes every time they ran for president and I guarded then Vice President Bush and Air Force 2 many times when he campaigned in the Iowa caucuses in 1987-88.

Why sure she loves him! Her and her globalist husband, teaming up with Bill Clinton, made a fortune running cocaine out of the airport in Mena Arkansas in the 1980’s. Of course the NWO Bush loving blind toads still deny that one.

Who said I was a Republican? Maybe you’re confused. This is not GOP Proud or the Log Cabin Republicans or some such, this is a CONSERVATIVE site!

Georgy never even fought Billy Jeff in the 1992 election. They were always great pals.

Looks like the “Powers to Be”, really want Hillary to be President. Stories like this and the Benghazi was over. Then the Bill Gates comments that Hillary would make a good commander and chief.

Voter fraud with stories like this will ensure Hillary gets into office without people questioning the polls.

I think that he thinks of George a little bit like the father he didn’t have,” she said. “And he’s very loving to him and I really appreciate that.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Admittedly I didn’t (nor will) read the whole ‘hit piece’ but using the concept of the highlighted portion (above) in that context the ‘headline’ statement would be ‘ok’.

Funny how they bashed Nancy Reagan for her 8 years and when she opined ‘I don’t think Ollie North should be a Senator’ (close not a direct quote) she all of a sudden became the ‘darling of the left’ while she was needed. - Which goes back to Connie Chung ‘ambushing’ Newt’s Mother by asking her if Newt had a pet word for either Hillary or Pelosi(??)- when she said nothing Chung leaned forward and said “come on now, just between you and me”

Naturally the headlines the next day were “Newt says Hillary is a Bitch” According to Newt’s Mom etc etc etc....

Chances when I am 90 or so are I may even say something ‘positive’ in re Bill, Hillary, algore, Jf’nKerry, joebamaBiden, Pelosi, Reid, Obama etc etc etc BUT I am now clarifying I am either suffering dimentia, crazy as a Loon or started drinking again.

BTW heard today the Ambassador to Japan (C Kennedy) was chastising them for their dolphin or whale or seal hunt...May as well tick off and alienate our “Friends” in the Pacific also......

A pox on ALL of them that voted and or supported the latest nonqual position....

JUST think how BAD OFF we would be if we didn’t have Boehner and his diehards protesting all these ‘illegal’ acts the Senate and White Hut are pulling off.....

Judging by your thread posting history, let me ask you this: Do you ever take time to leave your house and visit the outside world or do you spend your entire life on your computer trying to find controversial articles in which to impune the GOP?

Take the blackout curtains off your windows bro and you might see the sun is shining.............
