SOMETIMES I wonder what it must be like when the presidential son comes to Kennebunkport for a visit. Does George the Younger tell George the Elder what he tells the country? Does he say that we are safer with Saddam in prison than in power? Does he insist that we are better off having overthrown the dictator rather than containing him? I suspect it might be just a splash awkward. After all, it was dad who decided not to topple the Iraqi when he was on the run. It was George the 41st who believed that the chaos might be worse than containment. When another and another car bomb goes off in Baghdad, does this most discreet father ever want to say: I told you so?

OK... now I know what 'nuanced' means to a socialist-progressive. It means that terrorists and democrats are really not that different!
The terrorists just need to be convinced, by 'nuturing' socialist-progressives, that there are better 'life-choices' out there to choose from!!
Thank you Ellen... you vapid, condescending bitch!
Their soft life cushions reality.
Uh, no. That was decided long before we invaded, and was actually a precondition to Arab support.
When will you libs ever get it right?
Never.
Wondering when the last encounter with a clue she had was
Exactly.
Great question!
I suspect the main difference between liberals and conservatives is that the latter know who there father is.
If I had "nurturing" parents like Ellen, I would still be running from the bullies I ran from when I was 8 years old. My great grandmother once locked me out of her house to force me to confront a bully.
I got my butt kicked, but the bullying stopped and the bully and I have been friends for nearly 30 years.
What the Elder Bush says and doesn't say to the Younger (President) Bush has been written up and published numerous times. Ellen Goodman doesn't give a rats ass. She far prefers her own world of elitist, ignorant spin.
Mizzzz Goodman was very nurturing toward her adopted son, which is why he self-immolated out at UMass before Gulf War I.
If memory serves me correctly, very tragically -- Ellen Goodman's son committed suicide years ago. Very sad situation. Perhaps she's not gotten over it yet; possibly also blames "Bush" for her son's suicide? It'd be part and parcel of the lib philosophy...
Is this true? is there more to the story? I hadn't heard that one. How sad.
No,in 1991 she would have blamed Reagan. Remember, everything was Reagan's fault until he died and that mantle was passed to W. NOW, everything is Bush's fault.
"After all, it was dad who decided not to topple the Iraqi when he was on the run."
Once again, Liberals have to lie about an historical event in order to try and make their outrageous point.
It was the U.N. that made us leave Iraq intact with Saddam remaining as dictator, not the President Bush or General Swartzkoff (sp?). They wanted to march straight to Bagdad.
There are enough leftist news services around so that anyone with an IQ of 80 (or below) can write columns and actually be paid money for the effort.
LOL! You are evil and I envy you. ;)
Liberals, over the past 30 years have broken EVERY SINGLE CODA of civility -- and yet they now demand to be "respected"; and whine ad nauseum about "oh.. how uncivil our "communities", "our world" has become".
