Former American President George HW Bush has publicly criticized Dick Cheney and Donald H Rumsfeld, key members of his son's administration, in a biography due out next week.
Mr Cheney, Mr Bush said, built "his own empire" and Mr Rumsfeld "served the president badly," US media report.
Mr Bush also called Mr Rumsfeld "an arrogant fellow" with "swagger".

Why don't they all just GO to that ranch in Paraguay?
Bush was just a care taker director. He was just in the office 357 days.
” Remember how badly the Bush staff trashed Reagan in a press whisper campaign after Bush won in 1988.”
Forget the staff. Bush himself stated that we now could look forward to “ a kinder, gentler nation”. Then from Day One in office, he began to dismantle everything relating to the Reagan legacy. That was a stab in the back to Reagan. Nancy refused to even speak to Bush for over a year.
Dubya's biggest fault was his inability to defend himself, his allies, his friends, and all the people who voted and supported him. Now we see daddy jumping on the hate Cheney/Rumsfeld liberal wagon. How in the world does this book help anyone?
Hes a NWO supporter. Damn him.
He is a former editor-in-chief of Newsweek, a contributing editor to Time Magazine
Hummmmm
You had no choice. None of us did.....The elite puppet-masters had.total control over all perceptions put out on all the airwaves-—we were basically fed lies 24/7 and had to believe them. They were repeated and confirmed over and over even by the “right”.
Today—with the internet—(which they are desperately trying to control)—there is no “reason” to be ignorant of the truth. Time and reading original source documents (Classical Education) is the only way to “know”-—never trust without verifying anything.
Plus, you have to understand philosophy-—where ideology takes you-—to understand what the consequences of promoting vice in Just Law does to a civil society. Western Civilization was superior to all because of the Law of Non-Contradiction and the understanding that ALL people promote a “faith”-—just some “faith” is based on Reason/Truth/God.
We have to return our legal system to a “Just” one-—one that ONLY promotes “public virtue” at all times. It now is a Vice System and will corrupt all the children raised in such an irrational, vile system.
Al Gore.
I'll bet you don't believe Islam is religion of peace and that we a worship the same God, either.
George HW Bush gets along just fine with Bill Clinton and Barack Obama. It’s scandalous actually! Sadly enough GW Bush gets along well with Bill Clinton too...Although GW does not cotton to Hussein Obama. Obama being too far left and blaming GW too often for the wars and and all his other problems
You had no choice — it was either GW or worse.
Whatever?
I am no fan of the Bushes but worrying about NWO or the Trilateral Commission, etc is the equivalent of worrying about Bigfoot!
I’d rather focus on something real.
Which is why I voted Perot, which gave us Klinton - we were really in a no-win situation, so don't be too hard on yourself.
But at least he did get a ride in an SR-71... /s
Agreed on all counts.
I rail on idiots that voted for lesser evil. I should be railed on for my own idiocy. And supporting bush was idiocy.
I learned my lesson. But it doesn’t erase my mistakes any more than anyone elses.
I’m not sure, but I know which genius it was who had the idea not to fight back against the years of daily assaults on GWB’s character and leadership, and thereby allowed Bush to become the Hoover to he-who-shall-not-be-named’s Roosevelt.
I did have a choice. I abandoned conservative values and chose the lesser evil. Here we are.
There is ALWAYS a choice.
Sadly no. But life would be easier if I did.
Damn this rational thinking! ;)
