George W. Bush Breaks Down His Affection for Michelle Obama: ‘We Just Took to Each Other’
People ^ | March 1, 2017 | Sandra Sobieraj Westfall

To some, they might seem an unlikely twosome: a former president and former first lady from two different administrations, different political parties, different generations and different upbringings.

But George W. Bush tells PEOPLE that he feels a real fondness for Michelle Obama.

“She kind of likes my sense of humor. Anybody who likes my sense of humor, I immediately like,” says Bush, in an interview to launch his first art book and new exhibit, Portraits of Courage: A Commander in Chief’s Tribute to America’s Warriors, a collection of his paintings of post-9/11 war veterans.

I think President Bush needs to re-evaluate his empathy skills. He needs to recognize that some people with whom he feels a bond may not, in fact, be on the same page as he the same as he said it was with Putin. I see a pattern. If GW feels warm and fuzzy about someone, they are a communist.

Yeb would have been the nominee and Hillary would now be president.

She would have killed him in the general election.

George, about your sense of humor?

Michelle is laughing AT you.

At what age does senility begin?

Its really unbelievable how they don’t even try to hide it anymore. Like George Carlin said - its one big club and you ain’t in it.

“Hapless fool.”

What gets me is for 8 long years G.W. never opened his mouth in his administration’s or his own defense, but now that President Trump is in office, he has suddenly found his voice???? Please, I think G. W. is senile.

Just another condescending cracker willing to be the black man’s doormat simply to show how “tolerant” he is. I wonder what it’ll be like when the white guilt generation is gone? Will white boys look at race relation honestly, with any degree of integrity?

So you are saying that George Bush really does care about black people after all. Somebody alert Kanye.

Bill Bradley or Dick Gephardt would have been president. Bush was good at that time. Gingrich was too tainted in 2000. Jack Kemp, Wayne Newton would have been good presidents back then as well.

America would have gotten Gore, Kerry, or Gephardt, but you may be right. The Republican Party cleared the field for Bush in 2000, because they didn’t want another Buchanan type muddling the field.

You get the impression he’s just too stupid to understand any of that.

The whole family seems to have some sort of low grade mental disorder.

They don’t get so many things that are clear as day.
