There’s not enough context in this post to mete out such strong statements...

Did everybody posting hear the interview? What exactly did he not say so strongly? I didn’t hear it and there’s not much to go on here.

The point is what you didn’t hear.

He went through a long list of those responsible for contributing to the collaspe of the Soviet Union and the Removal of the Wall.

His list was made up mostly of East Germans and Soviet Officials with a few people from his own state department.

James Baker had heaps of praise from Bush Sr. Nothing for Reagan, not even a mention in the entire interview.

As the Man himself would say, trust but verify. Could we at least see a transcript before the trash talk?

"What exactly did he not say so strongly?"

Well, I saw it. It was an interview about the Wall coming down. My impression was Bush was rewriting history. I tuned in to hear Bush say something to make me like him, seriously...maybe offer some criticism of what's going on today. But no. There are two people you think of when you talk of the Wall going down: Gorbechev and Reagan. Reagan's name never came up. If you knew nothing about history, and obviously many people do not, you would think George Bush brought down that wall. He kept talking about his involvement and what "we" did. Unbelievable. The Bushes need to go away and never come back.
