Mr Bush has allegedly told friends that Mrs Palin is not qualified to be president and criticises John McCain for picking her as his Running Mate in 2008
"Naming Palin makes Bush think less of McCain as a man," a Republican official close to Mr Bush told the New York Daily News.
"He thinks McCain ran a lousy campaign with an unqualified running mate and destroyed any chance of winning by picking Palin."
Mr Bush has allegedly been disparaging about Mrs Palin in the past.
Matt Latimer, former special assistant to Mr Bush, wrote in a book released last year: "'I'm trying to remember if I've met her before. I'm sure I must have.' [Mr Bush's] eyes twinkled, then he asked, 'What is she, the governor of Guam?'"

I’m in! This is a ZOT thread, wide open for hijacking! Let the revels begin!
I don’t get it. What is that?
'Bout as many as those FReepers who are deeply saddened that Nancy Pelosi will no longer be Speaker of the House come January.
Ren and Stimpy of cartoon fame. Stimpy’s most used line when happy is “Happy, happy, joy, joy!”
I agree with you . Sarah is on target , she is a great money raiser for us but she in not presidential material at all.
I hope Peelosi gets the minority leader job. She’s God’s gift to conservatives running for congress.
When you actually read the article, it very quickly becomes blatantly obvious it’s a hit piece on both President Bush and Governor Palin.
The Writer refers to them without their honorific, substituting Mr and MS for their proper titles, and you’ll notice that it’s not an actual statement from President Bush, but an unnamed “Republican official close to Mr. Bush”.
Not one bit of evidence, and a LOT of hearsay. It’s not even worth the electrons I inconvenienced in responding to this silliness.
Nice try, lamestreamers.

Does the Name Carter suggest anything? I did say that I didn’t know if the article was true or not, however, your equivocating about the fact you think it is ok for Bush to bad mouth Palin but not Bozo just proves my point. You are obviously a Bush supporter, one who is blind to the many faults the guy has and which made him, not a great President but a mediocre one, one who made many mistakes, the main one being failure to bad mouth his political opponents regardless of how much they bad mouthed him. Not fighting back and keeping quiet about evil men is the best way to lose any freedom we might still have.
Oh, I’ve heard of them, but that graphic is a bit ugly and distorted from the pix I vaguely remember seeing, mostly of Ren. I’ve never actually seen the cartoon.
Sheltered life...
ROFL!
Stolen.
Maturity is my middle name.
All this time I thought it was “and.” Slings Maturity Arrows. I like it.
I agree with you. For as much as I've been upset with GWB in his second term over many issues, I can't envision that quote coming from his lips. Consider the source.
50mm already got it. I am not so sure you want me post zots right now...Just had surgery and on pain meds but it would be interesting to try?
“All this time I thought it was “and.” Slings Maturity Arrows. I like it.”
OMG....I hope he never hits *me* with one of them!
I -refuse- to ‘grow up’!
Sorry to hear that. You're doing okay now?
Slow recovery but I should be ready to go back to work next week.
