George W. Bush: Those silencing protesters 'do not understand the meaning of America'
Washington Examiner ^ | June 2, 2020 | Caitlin Yilek

How do we end systemic racism in our society? The only way to see ourselves in a true light is to listen to the voices of so many who are hurting and grieving,” Bush said in a statement Tuesday.

“Those who set out to silence those voices do not understand the meaning of America — or how it becomes a better place,” he said.

Bush said he and his wife, Laura, have “resisted the urge to speak out, because this is not the time for us to lecture. It is time for us to listen.”

I guess George Washington didn’t understand the meaning of America either, when he silenced the “protesters” involved in the Whiskey Rebellion.

Someone is “silencing” them??? What on earth are you talking about, George? (Maybe it’s real quiet in Crawfordsville TX?)

A most sickening, and foretelling, picture if I ever saw one.

Those aren’t protesters, Meester Boosh! They’re rioters and looters! Why do you like rioters and looters, Meester Boosh?

His wife finally got to him. I’ve seen it happen many times. Usually when the wife is smarter and manipulative.

“How did I ever vote for this schmuck?”

That makes two of US. Failure of his “New World Order” father should have been clue of the century.

GWB knows full well the difference between the demonstrators and rioters. Seldom are the demonstrators silenced, it is the rioters causing the problems.

So there's been no sign of racism in the death.

Nobody’s being silenced.

Does anyone think anymore?

Please Clap! Without 9-11 GWB would have been a one termer... starting with his “non response” to the ChI COMS deliberately crashing into our P-3 Orion surveillance plane over INTERNATIONAL waters. What a joke he was... but certainly better than climate a@@wipe Al Gore pulling on his chakra all the time. Seen him lately? He looks like a fat old jimmy buffett drunk fan. Dumb as a sack of rocks.

Pander all you want George. The same people you are supporting, are the same ones who wanted you charged with war crimes.
