Is W off the wagon again? Or, is this Politico just stirring things up? Probably just another sign of the Jeb implosion!

Exactly.

The Obama juggernaut is partied by the Bushs, Clintons and their myriad minions in every segment of elite society. THEY are the enemy who must be routed from their cushy palaces of privilege and forced to live as we live.
The spirit of the French revolution is upon us. We must be wary of the potential to lose our way in the thickets of anger. We must remember who we are and what we are about. We must rebuild this nation to the freedom and dignity our founders envisioned.

I thought Jeb was the dumbest Bush but I may have to re-access that.

The Bush clan lives off government as surely as welfare families do. They have achieved what they have by whom they know, not by their intellect and moral commitment to the Constitution, as is the case with Cruz.

I think Ronald Reagan was one of the greatest presidents in our history and certainly the best in my lifetime. However, I will never understand why Reagan put George Bush on the ticket with him. I know it was a sop to the party establishment. But what a price we have paid. And we continue to pay it today.

If Trump gets in, I sure hope he is not pressured by the GOPe to put a RINO on the ticket.

I didn’t mean to say he was. W said he was. My comment was meant to convey my contempt for a supposed Republican who sucks up to the Clintons.

The acorn didn’t fall far from the oak. W’s daddy didn’t much care for Reagan either.

I remember the old man's failed 1980 campaign where he called Reagan's economic plan "Voodoo economics." At the RNC convention, when there was a movement afoot to draft Gerald Ford as VP, GHWB was off drowning his sorrows in a bar and couldn't be found for some time once he became the next VP choice.

The Bushes are done. This country needs a bold new direction--not someone who plays nice with the Dems and continues the USA along the same ruinous path it has followed for the past 26+ years.

I rarely agree with much the mainstream media publishes; but they recently had an article on presidential IQs. GW Bush was second to last, ahead of only US Grant. At least Grant was a successful general, even though he was adjudged a failure as a two-term president, just like GW Bush.

Interesting article and surprising admission.

The Bushes are buddy-buddy with all kinds of folks, unless they’re conservative.

I saw that article, too. Then, I remembered that IQ tests’ histories didn’t go back as far as the article was taking them.

I’d say pressure was brought to bear as far as support in the general election. Reagan and H. W. weren’t exactly two peas in a pod, I doubt he was anywhere close to Reagan’s first choice of a running mate.

At least Ted Cruz knows what Conservatism is.

George W. needs a docent to get to the bathroom.

Docent

3. a person who is a knowledgeable guide, especially one who conducts visitors through a museum and delivers a commentary on the exhibitions.

Here Mr. Bush. This is toilet paper. Do you need any more help?

¡Yeb! isn’t the smart one and neither is W, is it Neil?

Barbara and Poppy had high hopes for Neil and were grooming him until that little problem with Silverado. Then they turned to W. Fortunately, Laura got him sobered up.

Jeb? Well, I guess every dynasty family has to have a Fredo, eh?

I didn’t read yours. Point on! Exactly! All the sudden GW finds his voice and it’s against CRUZ! Brotherly love or a need to win one for sister Hildabeast! The whole bunch stink but they’ve been Trumped! CRUZ will end their love fest of corruption.

LOL, I was a Bushbot. I find the whole thing very interesting. To my knowledge George W has never criticized any politician, I was surprised to read this.
