George W. Bush Shows Where His True Loyalties Lie
DB Daily Update ^ | 10.20.2017 | David Blackmon

Posted on 10/20/2017 5:00:31 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

A Bush Finds His Voice – For eight long years, from January 20, 2009 through January 20, 2017, supporters of former President George W. Bush were saddened and frustrated as Mr. Bush sat idly by while his successor in office and his own supporters trashed Bush’s policies, his reputation and his personality on pretty much a daily basis. For those eight long years, Mr. Bush appeared happy and very much unperturbed as his successor worked overtime to tear down this country’s institutions brick by brick, to foment racial divisions wherever possible, acted in an utterly lawless manner whenever it suited his desires and needs, and, as we are finding out this week, allowed his Secretary of State and Attorney General to literally sell the country’s national security interests to Russia.

Mr. Bush seemed to be footloose and fancy free as his successor sat fecklessly by and allowed ISIS to grow and take over vast swaths of Iraq and Syria, as terrorist attacks in the U.S. and throughout Western Europe multiplied in almost a geometric progression, as North Korea marched steadily towards possessing an intercontinental nuclear capability.

During all that time and through all that corruption and destruction of American society, Mr. Bush sat at his Crawford, Texas ranch like a deaf mute, rarely seen in public other than at events at his presidential library on the SMU campus, or other events at which he was paling around with his “Brother from another Mother”, Bill Clinton. Nothing, no insult, no being blamed by his successor for his own failures, no corruption of government or society by said successor could break Mr. Bush out of his self-imposed silence.

It is only this week that Mr. Bush has suddenly found his voice. As a duly-elected President of his own political party is going about systematically deconstructing the legacy of Mr. Bush’s successor, trying to resolve the crises with Iran and North Korea that both Mr. Bush and his successor punted down the road, dealing with major natural disasters in three states and Puerto Rico, and under a daily withering assault by our fake national news media, Mr. Bush chose this moment to come out of hiding and make a speech criticizing another president. Unfortunately, and to his undying disgrace, Mr. Bush chose to criticize not his successor and all the damage he perpetrated on our country, but the current President, Donald Trump.

In making that speech yesterday, conveniently timed to distract attention from the exploding Russian Uranium/bribery scandal that took place in the first two years of the Obama Administration, the former President removed all doubt about where his real loyalties lie. Mr. Bush is a Bush after all, and his loyalties are with the establishment, the ruling elite, the globalists who insist we place international interests above the interests of American citizens, and the DC Swamp creatures who continue to work to ensure such outcomes. He’s just another Bush, like his Dad, like Jeb! and all the other Bushes who are creatures of the ruling elite. His outlook and philosophy differ from those of the Clintons and the Obamas only by small degrees.

By labeling President Trump’s voters as bigots and nativists, Mr. Bush showed an elite’s disdain for the very same voters who got him elected in 2000 and 2004.

By laying off the blame for our current social strife entirely on President Trump, Mr. Bush demonstrated support for the very leftists who are truly responsible for it all. By refusing to condemn the Democrat-invented “resistance”, Mr. Bush showed his preference for the true fascists among us.

I’ll never regret supporting George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004, because he was definitely the lesser of two evils in those elections. But Thursday’s disgracefully timed and delivered speech removed any remaining doubt that he was in fact an evil, and that made it a sad day indeed.

Yes...somehow Trump is cutting close to the bone here....not sure which Sacred Cow is at risk of being revealed.....Bush is afraid of something coming out or of some threat to his family’s financial dynasty.

He is trying to get ahead of the curve

Family friends with the Hinckley family. HWB ran the CIA and allegedly worked with them for years prior to leading it.

When drug pilot Barry seal was being harassed by the IRS he did what he could to get the treatment to stop:

he presented to George HW Bush a video tape he had featuring young W and young Jeb showing up to a Florida hanger with a kilogram of cocaine, foolishly attempting some sort of business they conjured up in their silly heads.

it probably made a deep impression on the then vice president; later Barry seal was murdered.

some say it is likely that the perpetrators were the cartels he betrayed but there are those who say the murderers were not the cartels AT ALL.

The Bushes have some loose connections to the assassination attempt on Regan as well.

I hadn't heard that, but considering that Bush Sr was VP at the time, it is not that surprising.

It was easy to find out where GW's loyalties lie. You just had to be paying attention. He's always been open borders, anti American culture and pro illegal.

He wanted to build a "new America" but was stymied by 9/11.

We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture.

Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende.

For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America.

Our future cannot be separated from the future of Latin America.

As I speak, we are celebrating the success of democracy in Mexico.

George Bush from a campaign speech in Miami, August 2000.

You can read the speech here.

Here is an excerpt of a good critique of that speech:

In equating our intimate historic bonds to our mother country and to Canada with our ties to Mexico, W. shows a staggering ignorance of the civilizational facts of life. The reason we are so close to Britain and Canada is that we share with them a common historical culture, language, literature, and legal system, as well as similar standards of behavior, expectations of public officials, and so on.

The night before there was the attempt on Reagan’s life, the Bush family dined at the home of the Hinckley family.

no one contests this, although no one knows the details of the dinner conversation.

The two families were very good friends.

Yeah, me too. I was six and riding my bike at RAF Lakenheath when my mom called me into the house. I think there are a lot of things the Bushes and Clintons conveniently dis-remember...

Let’s not forget how George W when referring to Bill Clinton said, “he’s my brother from another mother”. Going back to the Viet Nam era, George W got a special deal to join the Texas National Guard and thus avoided service in Nam. For 16 years (8 yrs as POTUS and 8 yrs with Obama) the RATS dumped all over this weasel and he never said a word in defense, now he takes pleasure in bashing the duly elected POTUS. Screw GWB and the whole Bush family.

I voted for the lesser of two candidates, GWB, twice.

I could not get behind him after his, “Islam is a religion of peace” statement. How shallow he is on Christianity to make such a stupid statement. Then, Laura came out after they were back in Texas saying she is not really prolife! That stunned me. A selective political family that hid a few big things under the rug, now out in the open.

I have NO respect for him with the latest bomb. He would take a knee on the field with the teams causing most of the problems we have going on. Putts!!!

Trump’s election was as much a rebuke to the Bush dynasty as it was to Obama.

For many of us, it wasn’t as infuriating when he sat idly by and didn’t defend his policies against attacks by his successors and own party...it was when he sat idly by and didn’t defend them while he was in office.

Legacy is in the mind of the person observing it. President Bush...in my mind...had a fairly good legacy. No longer, like many other of my past hero’s, he has fallen to a low. Amazing how Trump forces them out of the progressive closet, and into the open where we can see what they really are.

He was in Dallas that day. No one knows why.

Meeting up with Ted Cruz, no doubt.

You express my sentiments, exactly.

I am ashamed to have held my nose and voted for either GHWB or GWB. They are truly pathetic.

PC Bush would never fight back against the Media, but now he fights against the President? He’s a DISGRACE.
