Former president George H.W. Bush and his son George W. Bush condemned hatred and bigotry on Wednesday a day after President Trump incendiary comments further inflamed racial tensions in the US.
America must always reject racial bigotry, anti-Semitism, and hatred in all forms, the ex-presidents said in a statement issued from their vacation home in Kennebunkport, Maine.

As we pray for Charlottesville, we are reminded of the fundamental truths recorded by that citys most prominent citizen in the Declaration of Independence: we are all created equal and endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights, they said in a reference to Thomas Jefferson.
We know these truths to be everlasting because we have seen the decency and greatness of our country.
While not mentioning Trump by name, the former commanders-in-chief were clearly expressing their outrage over his divisive rhetoric during a bizarre news conference on Tuesday in which he said both sides were to blame for the violence in Charlottesville during the weekend.

The pile on continues
Don’t think its a good time to ax Bannon, Miller or Gorka
All the losers are rising up and opening their yaps. Could have gone forever without their opinions.
I liked that one. The comments apply to BLM as much as any other group there.
They are also simply stating the obvious. I condemn racial “bigotry”, duh. Who in their right mind would publicly say they don’t?

Except the racial bigotry of Black Lies Matter, and the hatred exhibited by those wearing black uniforms, masks, and carrying baseball bats. They are just fine, upstanding Americans.
We know now where the Bushes, the Romneys, the McCains, etc., all stand.
Anyone in the Bush Dynasty, considering their lineage, chastising President Trump for mythical racist leanings is just wrong on so many levels.
The Bushes are virtue signaling. Isn’t that cute? For once Jesse Jackson was right, STAY OUT DA BUSHES!
Both of them have some serious repenting to do...

No they don’t, they like to milk it for their selfish reasons.
What about Jeb? Has he stood on his tippy-toes and weighed in yet?
I so anxiously await what Jeb has to say about this.
Mighty “White” of them, ain’t it?
Both Bush Presidents refused to enforce our laws and borders and facilitated the flood of foreigners.
The GOP has been cooperating with the Democrats to replace the citizens.
Both Bush Presidents were racists.
HW Bush once said that he loved all his grandchildren, “Even the little brown ones.”
Let’s all hold George H. W. Bush responsible for the Rodney King beating and see what he has to say about that. /sarcasm off/
Gee this statement sounds exactly like what President Trump said..so will the media bash the Bushes for saying almost the same exact thing
LMAO.
