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.

1) Bush sucks.

2) Never donating to GOP again. Ever.

He is finishing off the pinching off of the spacetime bubble surrounding the District of Mordor and the Uniparty, from the rest of the country.

Thank goodness this wasn’t a Bush vs. Clinton election.

The *only* reason I would have wanted it to be, is that I was planning on getting rich enough to retire selling "Go Hillary, Lick Bush" merchandise online...

I agree. I think GPB was just babbling. Sometimes it is best to circumvent one’s speculation.

Maybe this is reverse psychology. Bush knows that conservatives will go nuts if he actually did this and this becomes the ultimate Get Out The Vote operation!!!!

George Bushes, their mama Bush and the Brat Bushes are disgusting. As a conservative I always knew these people were. Once again they are proving it. Little George the dope should go out and campaign for Hillary. It can only hurt her.
Bushes, you s**k.

Yeah, he wanted the amnesty. He’s definitely a globalist - that’s for sure.

“The one good thing that the Bush family has done in this election is reveal their true colors”

Yes sir, for everyone to see, I just hope we all remember so that no more Bushs are elected to control us.

Of course Bush will vote for Clinton.

He is also likely to end up in jail under a Trump administration.

Explain this to me now...He didn't support embryonic stem cell research. I thought the issue meant something to him and wasn't just something that he used to pander to his base

Well, you just explained it to yourself.

There is absolutely no reason why anyone should be surprised by this.

Those guys still planning on doing anything but denounce Hillary after all that has come out? I’m just shaking my head over this and its time for George P. Bush to denounce his dad Jeb, his uncle Dubya, and granddaddy. Otherwise he has lost my vote for good and we’re going to have to start a new political party (or kick them out of the GOP) here in Texas for people who care about freedom. Assuming that Trump wins then I assume such a party (if needed in case the GOP must go away) would nominate Trump. Truth be told I stopped considering myself to be a Republican the day that Dubya invaded Iraq in March 2003 without first going to Congress in March 2003 to get an up/down vote on a resolution of war. I now consider myself an Independent who will only pick political parties for Primaries and Caucuses when I must choose a party-specific ballot. I believe that the President, as Commander-in-Chief, has the responsibility to have the military engage for defensive purposes when we are attacked and to do so under procedures well-defined by law. But we should never give any one person the authority to go start a war which we’ve allowed to happen. Instead such a matter should be decided by Congress to ensure that abuse of power doesn’t happen. Furthermore, its the supreme law of the land that Congress, not the President, has the power to declare War.

Anyone who disagrees with a liberal is evil and wants to kill everyone else, although frankly, whenever someone is willing to go in that direction of accusation about somebody else, I am pretty certain that 1) That person is probably pretty dangerous for the witch hunt mentality, and 2) That person is projecting.

I was not run off but I did get suspended for criticizing him.

He allowed limited embryonic stem cell research.

Anyone who disagrees with a liberal is evil in the eyes of a liberal. They are insane.

Good. Let him finish himself off by voting for a corrupt money launderer. Sorry I ever defended the guy.
