A new book by former First Lady Barbara Bush, published posthumously, gives fresh insight into her historic romance with former President George H. W. Bush.
In Pearls of Wisdom: Little Pieces of Advice (That Go a Long Way), released Tuesday, their son Jeb Bush remembers an interaction between his parents shortly before his mothers death in April 2018 one that brought the attending hospital staff to tears.
The last time my mom went into the hospital, I think Dad got sick on purpose so he could be with her. Thats my theory, at least, because literally a day later he showed up with an illness, writes Jeb in the book, which is a collection of stories and advice from the Bush matriarchs friends and family. He came into her room while she was sleeping and held her hand. His hair was standing straight up, and he was wearing a hospital gown. In other words, he looked like hell!

Jeb recalls this? Yuck.
...and then everyone clapped for Jeb, finally.
“Please cry”.
Jeb, 67, continues: Mom opened her eyes and said, My God, George, you are devastatingly handsome. Every nurse, doctor, staffer had to run to the hallway because they all started crying.
What a load.
NEB needs to get over it. Hes not running. Even Dana Perino has conceded that
As for Barbara Bush she and her generation of abortion enabling liberal suburban women and political wives who are in a hell of evil witches to whom history will not be kind.
Did she remain staunchly pro-abortion even to her death?
Reagan had better quips when he was in the hospital.
My respect for these limousine liberals in not-so-disguise went out the window years ago. Repulsive people. What a crock...
And this scene plays out a million times a day in every hospital in the country, only with little, unimportant, people in the starring roles. Those little, unimportant people whose lives these self-appointed superiors had little concern for. And to heck with Yeb...
Were they having sex with her arabs at the time? They were always in bed with them so I was just wondering.
I hope you posted this for the laughs because if you were really touched by it, you might be touched :-)

Really? That’s totally unbelievable.
George Bush.
Is this the same George Bush that stole the 4th amendment from 300 million plus Americans?
Asking for a friend...
Any man who survives being shot down in combat is a hero and deserves our admiration. He was not one of our best Presidents but several Presidents since his time have made him look much better. And his relationship with Barbara was a true love story that should not be laughed at. We would be a lot better off today with more of that.
You could say Life finally got its revenge and aborted her.
Me too...I usually keep books, but any of the Bush books I’ve gotten rid of...what fakes.
Well, she must have loved him because she wrote him an alibi for Kennedys assassination. Thats true love right there, accessory after the fact.
(Donning asbestos onesie)
Whatever. Babs Bush probably served sandwiches and coffee to the men plotting the JFK murder there in her living room. And they didn’t bother to stop talking because she came in the room.
I have to agree with you, except. Although they were a class act and sincere people, their politics was largely of the established Washington DC crowd. A disaster waiting to happen.
If there was any proof that a prior administration set up the new Administration for success, it was Reagan’s for GHW Bushes. And pappy Bush blew it..totally.

Sorry but I judge a man what he DID TO HIS COUNTRY, rather that what he did for his country. He gave us Clinton because he had no balls to keep his promise of no new taxes and throwing the Reagan legacy under the bus. After Clinton started his destruction, guess who because best buds? Thats also why I could give a crap what McCain did in Vietnam. His damage to this country was greater than his service to it.
George HW Bush and his wife were a class act
That shouldve been the end of the bush clan, however
The sions are pretty much just a disaster
