I’m not buying this horseshit.

[Tribune7]

This one doesn't pass the smell test.

[Dick Bachert]

You don’t have to buy it. It’s FREE!

[raybbr]

I’m not buying this horseshit.

Why not? Bush has proved to me that he's no conservative.

[DoughtyOne]

This oughta be good...

[Numbers Guy]

That’s just beyond ridiculous. Given what Obama was saying about Bush at the time, there’s no way Bush said that — unless Bush was pulling someone’s leg for the hell of it.

[Question Liberal Authority]

This is definitely the sort of thing the foreign press would have sat on for two years without uttering a word.

[GeronL]

Nope.

Maybe elder Bush in a senile moment.

[mquinn]

In the sense that a McQueeg administration would have been little different from the current one, it is in the realm of believability.

[therightliveswithus]

Not buying it for a minute. Dem propaganda

[DoughtyOne]

[Jim Noble]

I do not find this hard to believe.

“I probably won’t even vote for the guy,” Bush told the group, according to two people present.“I had to endorse him. But I’d have endorsed Obama if they’d asked me.”

My question is, who are THEY?

Puppetmasters?

Nobody should be surprised. It could be another chapter in Gertz's book Failure Factory.

Eight Wasted Years ...Margaret Thatcher used to talk about the “ratchet effect.” When the Left gets power, she said, they drive everything Left; when the Right gets power, they slow the Leftward drive, perhaps even halt it for a spell; but nothing ever gets moved to the Right. U.S. politics in the 21st century so far bears out this dismal analysis. What does the Right have to show for eight years of a Republican presidency? I supported George W. Bush in 2000 because I thought he had a conservative bone in his body somewhere. I supported him in 2004 because I thought him the lesser of two evils. At this point, I wouldn’t let the fool park his car in my driveway. Bruce Bartlett was right, every damn word... Bill Gertz interview on Hannity and Colmes Gertz: Well he casts himself as a compassionate conservative and I argue that he's neither. That his administration is neither. He's done tremendous damage to the conservative movement...

[Liberty Valance]

I always got the feeling these two guys didn't like each other one bit.

[Artemis Webb]

What your saying is that Bush was secretly supporting a guy who was vowing to overturn all the foreign policy and national security moves Bush had fought for since 9/11?

Righhhhhhhht.

[samtheman]

according to two people present

Cue the BS meter, please.

[bigbob]

I think Bush is just having his fun, and maybe a little revenge.
