George W Bush speaks out on George Floyd, racism
Fox News ^

Posted on 06/02/2020 5:46:24 PM PDT by FR33DOM4ME

Former President George W. Bush on Wednesday broke his silence on the death of George Floyd, saying that he was “anguished” by the incident and calling “for America to examine our tragic failures” when it comes to racial injustice. “We have resisted the urge to speak out, because this is not the time for us to lecture,” Bush said in a statement. “It is time for us to listen. It is time for America to examine our tragic failures – and as we do, we will also see some of our redeeming strengths.”

Well, he was probably better than Algore or Lurch would have been.

Of course, that’s setting the bar extremely low...

George George George, the police need to go after the people committing crimes, stupid ass. You know the criminals. It's not racial injustice when they're breaking the laws. The Floyd incident was an aberration, not the routine.

Didn’t Bush laugh when he dragged that black dude to his death with his pick-up truck I saw the NAACP ad which said he did. Maybe he didn’t do it, but only pardoned him. I forget now.

Wait a minute. Do you agree with the Liberals that Bush was completely responsible for the problems of Hurricane Katrina?

There are many legitimate criticisms of Bush, but the blame that was ascribed to Bush for Hurricane Katrina was contrived by the Liberals and the media.

Don't care what you're just sayin’. Don't care for your smiley caution.

The pig trashes those who stood for him when he wouldn't stand for himself.
