Bush often jokes that President Trump's administration makes his own former White House team look "pretty good," according to a Republican source.

The former Republican president regularly knocks the current administration, a source close to the Trump administration told National Journal, unable to understand why the White House often seems to be in chaos.

"Bush is often heard to remark, unable to stifle his trademark smirk: 'Sorta makes me look pretty good, doesn't it?' " National Journal reported.

I would really love to tell GWB in person that I stood up for Him when he wouldn’t even stand up for himself and I wish I could take it all back.

...
Same here.

What a stupid thing to say. It’s like him saying: “I was a lousy President, thank God Trump came along to make me look good”.

He got also testy and insulting when conservatives didn’t want Harriet Miers on the Supreme Court. I seem to recall Laura Bush on some morning show talking about the sexism of people who questioned the nomination of Miers. That, GWB’s amnesty for illegals browbeating (now conservatives were racists and xenophobes) and the Bush family’s praise of the Clinton Crime Family (Bubba was a “brother from another mother” according to GWB) turned me off the whole Bush clan.

Maybe you need to clear your cache.

Nothing in the article that you posted mentions Ben Carson.......

We’ll have to disagree here, dragnet2. I certainly don’t disagree with your decision on how to conduct your voting, but I had to vote against the Democrat candidates.

I completely understand yours, that was just my decision.

The only time I have ever felt sorry for Michelle Obama was the day she had the task of hold the hand of the spastic drunk George Junior at that Dallas funeral for police officers.

Shit-faced George Junior was grunting, hooting, shuffling and "dancing" at inappropriate times. It was all Mooch could do to hold him in place.

She should have put the kung-fu grip on Dancin’ George to make him settle down at that event.

Hmmm, is this the same Free Republic where you’d get trolled, suspended or banned when critising GW Bush when he was President?

LOL!

I remember the “Day in the Life of GWB” protected thread, which served as a sewing circle for lonely old cat ladies who would award each other “toasters” for fawning the most over Bush Junior or his creepy family.

If you pointed out to that coven something like Junior’s dreams of Amnesty - you ran a real zot risk.

Turns out GWB really is as dumb as they said.

Perhaps dumber and even more inept. As proof, I offer both his legacy and his statements about Trump vs. those about Obama. In retrospect, had Kerry been elected, it could be argued that the unmitigated disasters of the Iraq war, emerging Iranian threat, ISIS and Obama might not have happened.

Those “Day in the Life” threads were for the biggest idiots and sycophants on Free Republic. It was a hurlfest for Rino morons. I gritted my teeth everytime one was posted. We should dig one up and shame these losers again.
