When dozens of FReepers took the hearsay, conjecture and innuendo as gospel, and bashed the snot out of Bush, I warned them to back off until they got the FACTS.
Hell, Bush doesn't even express his views on the UnAmerican Marxist Keynsian Kenyan, so why would he comment on Palin's qualifications?
It amazes me that there are FReepers who know so little about Bush's character.
You’re right but it seems to me that people overall are so pissed (pardon my french) about the situation we find ourselves in and combine that with their dislike of Bush, that they are ready to jump on anything negative about him. Many of us know that it’s absolutely not in his character to disparage someone and that has been reinforced by his interviews.
Hopefully the bash Bush threads are over.
I said the same thing and got bashed on a thread.
I did not agree with Bush on many things but I know he conducted himself honorably and the compassion and empathy he showed the military tells more about the man than any unnamed source in a hit piece. It is amazing how the media all parrot the storyline about the GOP elite fearing Palin. It seems like they are trying to create the impression in peoples minds that she is unelectable does’nt it?
Bush is the picture of civility to a fault even when his failure to defend himself angered many of us.
