Nephew: George W. Bush may vote for Clinton
Politico ^ | November 1, 2016 | Christiano Limo

George P. Bush said Tuesday that his uncle, former President George W. Bush, may join his grandfather George H.W. Bush in casting his ballots for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump, according to the Associated Press.

The Texas land commissioner made the comments while addressing a small Republican rally in San Marcos, Texas, on Tuesday night, saying that both former presidents in the family may "potentially" vote for the Democratic presidential ticket come Election Day.

Later asked to clarify his comments by the AP, George P. Bush said that he was just "speculating" and couldn't say with certainty how they'd vote.

POLITICO reported in September that George H.W. Bush plans to vote for Clinton over Trump on Nov. 8, according to the member of another prominent political family, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, daughter of the late Robert F. Kennedy.

If this is true, we may owe the late Molly Ivins an apology.

a highly decorated crew member is a plane following who had no particular political motivation always maintained he saw him needlessly bail out of his plane, leaving his crew to die

Other witnesses saw the smoke coming from the plane and heard Bush on the radio giving the order to bail out. 40 or 50 years can do a lot to memory. Just what somebody could see or couldn't see a lifetime ago can get scrambled over the years.

Perhaps it would have been possible to land the plane in the water, but perhaps not. I doubt Bush would have been jumping out of planes the last few years if he'd let his crew members die all those years ago.

This business of politicians being angels or devils is ridiculous. People who loved Bush Jr. ten years ago and could see no wrong in him, hate him now and see no good. What does that say for their judgement and the whole idea of politicians being wholly good or wholly evil?

If any of us were in politics for decades, we'd have made plenty of mistakes by now. Heck, even not being in politics, none of us has had a perfect record.
