Bush 41: I Still Like Clinton

This simply proves that GHWB has class and respect for the presidency, something the left will never be capable of.

[Reactionary]

Oh, indeed. Having the greatest repsect for a traitor and sexual psychopath is, you know, part of Washington decorum these days.

[peyton randolph]

GHWB plays by club rules while Slick Willie plays Brutus.

[oceanview]

its not "class" - its something else, I just don't know what it is. the Bushes rehabilitated this man, why?

[plain talk]

poverty goes up

Poverty went down. Facts are a stubborn thing.

[IrishGOP]

I don't know, I don't think I could still profess to "like" or be "friends" with someone who is actively trashing my son day after day. Oh well, that's just me.

[wagglebee]

I think GHWB is simply following the tradition of former presidents NEVER publicly criticizing another president (whether sitting or former).

[MJY1288]

EXACTLY, Clinton is scum and there is no reason to get into the gutter with Clinton, the facts are there and it's our job to defend the president by challenging the MSM to report the truth, or face the Pajama Mojahadeen :-)

P.S. Ask Dan Rather about the PJ Mojahadeen :-)

[fizziwig]

Bush 41 has too much class to dig into a former president, even one that deserves it so much like Clinton. I respect Bush for that.

[Aetius]

It may indeed be a sign of class, and while I can respect his decision to not get in the gutter with Clinton (especially during an inappropriate venue like MNF), at the very least it should convince Bush the Elder of the folly of being such a public buddy of Clinton. While I'm sure there is some genuine altruistic motives for Clinton in all of his charity work, I also don't doubt for a second that it is part of the plan to 'moderate' Hillary in preparation for 2008.

[oceanview]

what is wrong with keeping silent?

[Lazamataz]

There's a point where you cross from being a nice guy to a freakin' sap.

[NeoCaveman]

Every once in a while GHWB reminds me why he only served one term.

[lonestar]

They should ask Barbara what she thinks.

[infidel29]

Willy knows the ins and outs of GHWB's involvement in Iran/Contra and how they allowed drugs into the country in the name of spreading democracy. In return, GHWB most likely knows all about Clinton's "China gate" and more. They carry each other's secrets to their graves.

[Gosh I love this neighborhood]

I don't know, I don't think I could still profess to "like" or be "friends" with someone who is actively trashing my son day after day. Oh well, that's just me.

There is something really strange about the whole thing.

[NeoCaveman]

what is wrong with keeping silent?

Agreed. A simple "no comment" would have said enough.

[Lazamataz]

I think GHWB is simply following the tradition of former presidents NEVER publicly criticizing another president (whether sitting or former).

That tradition is now null and void. Clinton broke that tradition.

[wagglebee]

While I'm sure there is some genuine altruistic motives for Clinton in all of his charity work

Yeah, I have no doubt he will be the first one in line when the strip clubs in New Orleans reopen.

[302damnfast]

GHWB is a wuss, just like he was when he was President. He doesn't have anywhere near the stones (or even the brains)of W. He never did and he never will. JMO, but this kind of statement is par for the course for GHWB.
