I had to bury my dad on Christmas Eve in 1994. Still bothers me.
So sorry to hear that. The pain never fully goes away.
Very said. I am glad I read the comments before commenting here. Prayes for her family.
Gotta disagree. Bush and Cheney engineered the lies that got us into a 20 year war. A war where too many good Americans died and trillions were wasted. Only to have a shameful pullout leaving Americans behind and billions in military equipment.
They manipulated words to get people to believe 9/11 was the worst attack since Pearl Harbor. Pearl Harbor was attacked by a nation with a superior military force which resulted in a declaration of war that we actually won.
9/11 was a terrorist attack where no single nation could be held accountable. So WMD’s were invented to invade Iraq, which eventually destabilized that region and allowed Iran to be the regions power house. In Afghanistan we fought goat herders running around in Toyotas and hiding in caves for 20 years and lost.
Yes, Bush was a real great president.
So tragic. Politics don’t enter the conversation with tragedies like this.
Prayers for family and friends. No one should endure pain like this.
Lots of folks on FR would say the same today. Kind of funny how perceptions change over time.
Augusto Pinochet had the right approach to dealing with Marxists, given that they killed hundreds of millions of people.
I was banned for texting and posting against the Boy Dumpster... I mean Dubster.
He did literally EVERYTHING wrong after 9/11. Remember how he even squandered a 90% approval rating to lose a Senate vote for ANWR drilling, after not even making an effort or speech on it? He was too busy kissing Arab asses.
Third party, someone has to sacrifice. If you can get to the range of Ross Perot, and build upon it. You can suck in the intelligent Democrats, if any are left, and leave the R’s and D’s in the dust.
IMO, D’s and R’s are hookers working opposite corners on the same street.
Yes Sir.
GW Bush was asked a direct question before he ever won office. It was in the vein of, what can we do about the extra-Constitutional functions that government has taken unto themselves? He said, “that ship has sailed”. Referring to the EPA, NEA, and the other functions gathered unto the Federal government, leaving the 10th amendment riddled with holes. At another time of course he said The US Constitution was just a piece of paper. I could never vote for him. I would have rather had Clinton in office, and I hated him for other reasons.
And he’s good pals with the Clintons and Obama
🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢
Yes— the Arab a@@es the Bush Zapata oil business sucked up to... Bushes being “Texan” only in the loose sense. Cowboys in name only with argyle socks and Phillips Exeter private schooling. We knew the gig was up when Barbara Bush said Bill Clinton reminded her fondly of her son, George!!! Yikes!.
Something that has been stated by whistleblowers (unofficial ones) is that Bush, to stay on the good side of the Saudis and others made mercenaries of the US Military to keep Iran at bay for the Sunni Arab Saudis— but that it went further than that. That is GWB began to pay the RANSOM to keep any further alQaeda attacks on the US from occurring— Ransoming payments to Iran who kept Osama Bin Laden in protective custody. The amount was in the billions over the years so it is said (and one cannot ignore the massive CASH “legal award” cover storied payments in millions sent to Tehran on US C-17s, which stopped off to pick up more pallets of Swiss and French Francs in Geneva then on to Tehran.) Thus leaving Osama to die a natural death in Iran— with a body double to be killed in Abbotabad Pakistan, and buried at sea- a muslim impossibility in fact. A final set up. This is not beyond the realm of the possibility- and the idiotic friendship of the Bushes with the obamas is definitely part of the bridge to the Muslim Brotherhood of Obama. Oils well that ends in Wells.
Oh yay. A fascist fan boy Pinochet fan.
Pinochet did have an impressive hat..
That seems to really concern you. Are you afraid? If I was commie marxist scum I would be afraid.
I wish I could say the same. Check out my tagline. 45 years! I had my MAGA epiphany in 2016.
