Dem VA Gov Candidate McAuliffe: My Dad Died Because of Bush

by Ben Shapiro 30 May 2013, 10:21 AM PDT 5 post a comment

George W. Bush has been blamed by the left for everything from hurricanes to the IRS targeting conservative non-profits. But now, it turns out that former Democratic National Committee head and current Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe blames Bush for his dad dying. Really. In an interview in May 2001, McAuliffe said that his father, Jack, died because “he could not go into a new year knowing that a Republican was actually moving into the White House.”

McAuliffe said, “He had eight great years. President Clinton and First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton were so nice to my mother and father, they’d come down all the time. So he had a great eight years when President Clinton and Vice President Gore were in office, and he just wasn’t going into a new year with a Democrat not being in the White House Steve, he just couldn’t handle it.”

Dear Candidate Komrade McAuliffe:

Republicans are a Race (Like Muslims) and you, sir, are a racist.

Oh, bless his heart! I surely hope that he does not have the same malady befall him in 2014.

Truly, it would be a tragedy. A tragedy.

Yeah, we say intemperate things. We're not vetted because we're just bloggers. We're in our pajamas.

Meanwhile, McAuliffe's a multi-millionaire who goes from cushy job to cushy job. Now he's decided it might be entertaining to be governor of the Old Dominion.

He’s a carpetbagger & a schmuck plus a lot of other things that go hand-in-hand with being a Leftist Democrap.

And I’m sure he’ll be competitive. I’ve never seen such a lack of leadership material as I have over the last 20 years.

Not sure if he needs a psychiatrist or an exorcist.

This has to be the WORST EVER case of BDS.

It is so absurd it is actually kind of funny. McAuliffe > Franken, neither of which should be allowed within a million miles of the government.

Terry McAuliffe

Is this the same "McAuliffe" involved in Clinton’s scandal involving illegal recording of cell phones, or illegal recording period?

Didn’t Terry make something like $18 million under suspicious circumstances while Clinton was President?
