Like some others on here have said he's doing it to help his daughter Jenna, Foxnews didn't hire her. No more no less besides its after the election by that time noone will really care. Except the ultraleft and some on the ultra right who somehow blame him for Obama. Need people be reminded John Mccain had the lead after his convention he screwed up the last two months of his campaign not Bush.

I am sitting here in my pajamas in my mom”s basement in awe of your stupid comment. You can not think of at least 30 stupid things between hw and w? Idealogue, anyone?

[AngryJawa]

I think we can pretty much guarantee that Jorge will take every possible opportunity to sing 0bunga's praises, talk about the "hard work" our wonderful federal bureaucracy is doing, and how "concerned" he is over the "racist" direction of the TEA party.

This man was cast as an arch-conservative for eight years. He is nothing of the sort and it becomes more apparent every day.

[kabar]

It is time for Conservative ex-Presidents to take full and fair advantage of their status

In Bush's case it is ex-Conservative Presidents. Conservatives don't support amnesty or expanding Medicare.

LOL! Do you always spout off on articles you haven’t read?

[Ann Archy]

Oh I forgot that Jenna works for NBC......well, then, he’s being a doting father, I guess.

[TomServo]

lol - what a stooge...

[Cheetahcat]

“LOL! Do you always spout off on articles you haven’t read?”

Refer to post 48 before you cackle Too much Jeb.

[DPMD]

Typical Bush. Still trying to set a “new tone” by sitting through another lunatic harangue. He’s beyond hope. Think I’ll have other plans when the interview is aired.

[jbp1]

some of you folks need to stop being so nasty to each other. Jeez.

Anyways, I unfortunately expect more of the same from W; he does not have that Cheney ‘go for the throat’ instinct. I only hope when that pos lauer tells any lies or spews bs that the last real Prez calls him on it.

when lauer lies, and he will, W ought to look at lauer and say ‘hold it right there’,

then W should look into the camera and say ‘folks, what mr lauer said is not true, and I urge you to go look into this yourself, don’t take the word of a politician (pointing at himself) OR a reporter (pointing at aforesaid POS)’.

oh, if we could just get the friggin sheeple to think on their own for a stinkin second........

okay dream over

[Vermont Lt]

Three reasons: Money, Money, Money....

[JimRed]

Why would he want to sit down with an enemy?

[lonestar]

Go back and check the dates, Einstein.

[FES0844]

Exactly. Why reward him with an interview?
Very disappointed.

[Stand Watch Listen]

I hope “W” isn’t shy about standing up for himself

You can NOT be serious!!!

[Paradox]

I’ll predict this here first, that by the end of the interview, people will start wondering why they ever thought that Obama was smarter or more caring than Bush. Watch..

[Onelifetogive]

I guess GW book is about to drop.

After talking to Lauer, he should go over to Fox where 1) people are watching, 2) people who can read are watching, 3) people who can read and may enjoy reading (instead of burning) his book are watching.

[Cheetahcat]

“Go back and check the dates, Einstein.”

Don’t have too I was in at post #48 and you slept until #65 Chrissie.

[DustyMoment]

W and HW Bushes have been incredibly naive about the intentions of their enemies.

I think W learned that lesson in his first term. In his second term, he spent less time trying to reach across the aisle to work with the leftists. Probably had something to do with all of those knives sticking out of his back!

[DustyMoment]

Bush is part of the Ruling Class so Matt Lauer is a brother in arms.

I have my doubts. While I am very disappointed in the way that Bush ended his presidency, I don't believe that he and Lauer are buds. Lauer is one of the Blame Bush cheerleaders.
