‘The democrats vilified his “Read My Lips” to an electoral victory in 1992.’

So true. The Democrats deserve the “Profiles in Scourge” award for
that bit of political nastiness. If GHW Bush was a hero for reversing
his tax pledge then what would that make the tax loving ‘Rats
who called him a liar when campaign season came along?
And, BTW, wasn’t JFK, the namesake of the award, the same
POTUS who sang the virtues of and signed a bill lowering taxes
in the early 1960s?

This world is so upside down, it’s a sick joke.

The award is really for handing the White House to Clinton.

Reagan had to take Bush as VP to get eastern moneymen to not scuttle Reagan. I have never looked on the Bush’s to be a defender of our Constitution for the ordinary USA citizen. The family has stronger ties to European and Arabic and South of the border people than on the ordinary USA Joes.

Bush’s mistake was believing George Mitchell who promised big spending cut for a tax increase. Mitchell lied of course and there went Bush’s presidency

Don't forget Darman's role in that fiasco.
