Notebook: Obamas, Bushes in close quarters (Barf Alert)
Associated Press ^ | Dec 10, 2013 8:57 PM (ET) | JULIE PACE

Posted on 12/10/2013 7:03:14 PM PST by DJ MacWoW

ABOARD AIR FORCE ONE (AP) - A joint wave from the Air Force One, a shared dinner, and a long flight home. President Barack Obama and former President George W. Bush shared quality time Tuesday as they returned from Nelson Mandela's memorial service in South Africa.

Reconciliation was in the air.

Bush and his wife, former first lady Laura Bush, had round-trip passage with Obama and first lady Michelle Obama for the service, an international "who's who" of current and former international political leaders.

Liberal Newspeak is the chirpy announcer in a drug commercial soothingly telling you about all the fatal side effects while on screen couples have romantic picnics and go whitewater rafting. That is the job of most of the news media. Forget outliers like MSNBC which caters to a self-consciously prog crowd. The media’s real job is to be that announcer telling you that if you vote liberal, your taxes will go up, your job will go to China and you will die, without getting you upset about the terrible news.

Maybe W has to keep his enemies closer. I noticed in particular he was entertaining Jarrett.

You are tough

OK, how about Laura Bush?

She appears like mom and apple pie and has that cute twang in her voice.

You gonna pick on Mom?

Tough?

Do you like to be back-stabbed by your government?

Just look at Paul Ryan’s shenanigans with the budget.

RE :”Just look at Paul Ryan’s shenanigans with the budget.”

What about his 10 year balance budget resolution aka Paul Ryan's moral document? (he mentioned that at the press conference)

Did't that buy him the conservative creds to make these deals with Dems? He seems convinced so.

I recall a time when Rush and Levin were ga-ga over it.

It’s a club of people who no longer have to care (if they ever did) or hold on to any principles, because government policies, why, even wars, don’t affect them or their families, like they affect the rest of us, or even come to think of it, affect the British Royal Family. You are naive to think that W would display any kind of principal stand.

RE :”I recall a time when Rush and Levin were ga-ga over it(the Ryan plan) .
......
So was I and he didn’t live up to his billing.”

I was talking specifically about ‘it’ meaning his phony 10 year resolution that said ‘We have to pass this medicare reform bill now to find out what's in it 10 years from now when it first takes effect’

But clearly that reflects negatively on him.

I recall Early 2011 when he first came out with it I took heat here for calling that crap = crap on the Paul Ryan worship posts.

Its was silly scam then and its a silly scam now and yet it was the first thing he cited at this press conference, he is telling you that it gave him the conservative creds to make deals like these.

Ryan has never had conservative creds in his life!

He funds O-care, eliminates the sequester cuts and funds the unconstitutional entitlements to projected 2016 levels in 2014.

FU Paul Ryan.

RE :”Ryan has never had conservative creds in his life!”

OK-OK, he is not perfect but what about his 10 year balanced budget resolution.

It shows his heart is the right place doesn't it?

He says you should go along with him because of that.

There is no budget of any kind that goes beyond 2 years.

To say anything else is deeply dishonest.

RE :”There is no budget of any kind that goes beyond 2 year”

It was worse than that.
His resolution had huge cuts that didn't take place until 10 years from passage. All pain delayed for a decade,

I like when Paul Ryan kept on saying in interviews that he opposed the Budget Sequester when a year earlier he went on TV saying the same Sequester bill was a historical deficit reduction achievement, with those clips of him all over youtube and replayed on TV.

But getting caught didnt slow him down at all.

Nothing will slow any of them down now. They think they’re on a victory lap with the constitution way back in their dust.

I notice many Bushbots ran away from here around early 2011 when the heat got turned up.

You ever run into one named ohiowfan ???
She is his most loyal groupie of them all.

They long for the days of the ‘A Day in the Life of GWB’ worship threads that finally ended in 2011
