Bush came as close to the ideal of the presidential office as anyone in our lifetimes has(?)

His last couple of years were pretty bad.

I should clarify. His last couple of years in office were pretty bad.

Is that the proper way to spell "Danforth"?

Good for you, DR. You have a great memory. What ever happened to the son who robbed a bank? And that bit about the mistress...there were a few, all over the world. It is said the old lecher liked Globalist p#$$y.

This was published by the MSM only because it’s a veiled attack on Trump

Sorry. I had him once. As governor I mean. He was an okay gov but not P-residential material.

If you're going to mock someone over their alleged spelling issues, better be sure you can at least spell their name correctly.

It's spelled Quayle.

Spelling bee dismissed.

Oh, I think they see it very well. They’re part of the smokescreen. They need to be complicit in the Clinton’s scams because to uncover them would be to uncover their own.

"The Hinckley connection. That was something I hadn’t heard before until just recently."

Me too. I don't remember it being reported at the time. All we heard about was his obsession with Jodie Foster. I wonder if he even knows she's a lesbian. Hope he won't use that as an excuse to try to murder another President once he's released from supervision. There was a day when a person who attempted to murder a sitting President was executed...as he should have been.

Could be. Or they’re just too prideful to admit they have not only been fools, but damned fools.

I liked George Bush the elder as a person. That said, I did not like the way he folded on taxes (iirc, he later acknowledged that this was a major error.) I suspect that the error might compete in magnitude with not pursuing Hussein in GWI.

The MSM and Democrats involving themselves in the death of both John McCain and George H.W. Bush.

I have a tv and never saw 1 second of McCain and won’t see one second of Bush. I stay waaaay away from any channel that shows news of any kind.
