So Dubya Turned Out to be an Idiot After All- I Guess The Libs Were Right

Sorry I ever defended him and his corrupt clan...
Apparently the Bushes are in the same boat as the Clintons now, where they're SO deeply indebted to various donors they're not able to retire
-even if they wanted to- then ride quietly off into the sunset just because the voters want nothing to do with them...
These two boundlessly-greedy political dynasties will never go away unless shoved off the cliff- as this country is presently fixin to do.
Perhaps Dubya was hoping a Jeb! administration could salvage his own legacy, just like GWB himself aspired to finish his father's unfinished chores in Iraq and settle accounts in the Muddled East.
But for George W Bush to keep his mouth shut for over seven years while Obama tore this country to the ground, gutted the military, and turned us all against each-other (pretending to take the high road, when he actually seemed to just acquiesce to it all like Judge Roberts)...
and NOW he's going to suddenly man-up and go after Ted Cruz?
W was quoted as saying 'I just don't like the guy' at a recent fundraiser... WTF kind of infantile argument is that?
Most intellectually-honest people find Cruz to be a charming,
highly-intelligent gentleman... perhaps it's the 'principled' part that rubs Bush the wrong way... or maybe it's the 'intelligent' he just can't (possibly) relate to.
Surely GWB is plenty frustrated since Trump leads all polls while humiliating Jeb!, Dubya, and Pops on a daily basis... and Cruz is running circles-around Jeb! in fundraising, appeal to the base, or what have you.
Now you see W lashing-out -like a LOSER- because the Bush 'team' are getting their asses kicked all-up-and-down-the-field. Well pardon my lack of professionalism but HA HA HA HA HA.
The voters have already made it abundantly clear via polls that the prospect of another Bush presidency is about as popular as the Bubonic Plague.
Bad-mouthing the guys that are beating you -while 97% of the country thoroughly rejects what you've got on offer- reeks of loser...
which is all that Jeb! -and George W Bush- have turned out to be.
As for W's tattered legacy, I still don't think going to Iraq was the worst thing he ever did... initial occupation was bungled, but he won in the end. Obama's the one who recklessly abandoned all gains there in what the US military still unofficially refers to as 'The Great Bug Out'.
But it's all the rest with George W Bush I got a problem with: spending way too much money, expanding government, setting-up the coming Obama regime with a powerful presidency and domestic spying apparatus... then mismanaging/damaging the GOP brand so deeply that's it's become an
all-but-irrelevant 'force' in US politics for almost a decade now.
We conservatives could do little but sit-back and watch Obama's
ongoing date-rape of this country proceed utterly undeterred by Republicans ashamed to be Republicans -because the long shadow of 8 years of Bush incompetence completely demoralized them.
Despite a massive TEA Party resistance movement that provided Republicans a congressional majority -and a reason for being- we've still just been
limping-along with a rudderless GOP leadership that never seemed to have any idea how to emerge from the ashes of the failed Bush presidency.
So as patriots now still attempt to pull the Republican Party out of the deep, muddy ditch W drove us in-to, we really don't need this failed, irrelevant bozo bad-mouthing far better men than himself, those who WE THE PEOPLE now choose to lead us.
George W Bush is a corrupt GOPe tool who left the Republican Party in ruins... his legacy will be one of a LOSER, little better than Jimmy Carter.
And conservatives sure won't be working to burnish his record now that he's made the indelible point 'he ain't one of us'.
I don't care how many returning troops he meets at the airport, screw
George W Bush and the whole rotten Bush family. PLEASE go-away Dubya, Jeb!, and all the rest of you... and don't forget to take your scumbag Architect with you.

I’ve not always agreed with everything W has done, but I’ve always respected him for staying out of the sewer.
If this is true it’s amazing and disappointing that of all the things W could have slung crap over, this was what he chose?
Hey W, how about showing a little passion about a president who evacuated the middle east and made every American soldier that you put in harm’s way that lost their life or became wounded... a life in vain. How in god’s name can you not loathe this president?
How about some oral passion on that George? Instead of bashing a fellow republican. Disappointing, (if true). Show me a g*d d*mn republican who doesn’t cower over slamming this POS POTUS and that guy’s already halfway to getting my vote.

Trump would much rather trash Republicans and conservatives than he would Hillary.

I think under any circumstance, Jebs campaign was always going to be about his brother. Sadly, I would not even support him. We did what we had to do because we believed it was the best choice at the time, but look what we got... On the whole, bush slowed down the decent but didn’t to anything to stop it.

And George W. Bush doesnt usually say anything negative about anybody.Yes. And that was a mistake. Just like McCain putting his honor and dignity ahead of the country.
George W should have spoken out about Obama and declared all he knew to the country.

apparently it’s a strategy.... we’ll see.

Don't be daft.
He's got to get rid of his GOP competition before he can destroy Hillary.
And believe me, he will lower the boom on the witch.
He's already said that she belongs in jail. That's a warning shot suggesting what's to come.
This is not a time for playing nice. The country hangs in the balance.

This is getting crazy. In the past 24hrs, the presidential campaign became about George W. Bush Missed the mark.
Make no mistake, Trump's 911 rhetoric is aimed squarely at Yeb!

I agree- Trump would go nuts on Hillary when the time presented itself
To: Reaganite Republican
All of the Kennebunkport Influence Peddlers are anathema to me now, though I have had the - possibly erroneous - impression that Dubya was the best of a sorry lot. The Mexicans, Saudis and Karl Rove can defend the lot of them, 'cause I'm way past done.

Of the
5 stages of grief that the anti-Trump crowd is going through, it appears some are now in the "acceptance" phase. Evidence the transformation of opinion of Chris Wallace and even a little bit in Britt Hume.
When Krauthammer begins to accept a Trump victory, we will have arrived.;-)

This seems so out of character for W. Will he rush to the media and refute the claim? Did he call Cruz and say he didnt say that? Who said he said that?
Good work, Bush donors.

His loyalties and royalties are further south in S America.
I believe it is Peru where his Grand Pappy Bush gobbled up the water rights, IIRC.
But they do have other mineral interests under the Arbusto Company. If you want to see how embedded the Bushes are in Mexico, C America and S America just search Arbusto.
You will see why NAFTA, CAFTA and SHAFTA were so important to him.

GWB has proclaimed numerous times that Bill Clinton “is his brother from another mother” that says it all about the Bush’s. Out da Bush’s.

Cruz won a Senate seat inspite of the Texas GOPee which the Bushes think they own.

This is about the GOPe not letting go. That is the heart of this article and debate. It is an UGLY power struggle. So UGLY that when the speaker of the house resigns, he won’t even leave until he can somehow hand pick who he wants. Jeb should have never run for this office if he didn’t want his family drug into it. Because after this ugly power struggle, he would just have the democrats to rip him and the rest of his family.
