No one cares about the Bushs.

I thought Homer Simpson destroyed GHW Bush’s memoir?

Bush was more open borders.

Re; “GHWB got grabby only after his mnd went”
Really? Then what about his White House Aide; Jennifer Fitzgerald? In a biography of Barbra, the author says George and Jennifer were a pair starting at least as early as November of 1974, lasting for the next 12 years.

“Me & Mrs. Fitzgerald. We got a thing, goin’ on.
We both know that it’s wrong. But it’s much too strong
To let it go now!”

Oh, isn’t papa Bush such a wonderful grandpa... I’m sure all the women he groped just love him.

Thanks a lot for the deep state and your MORON sons...

Ronald Regan’s biggest mistake, by far

WE MIGHT NEVER have had Slick Willie if TYSON FOODS hadn’t contributed so heavily to all of his campaigns.

To this day, I BOYCOTT all Tyson products.

The media started promoting him early. I remember whenever he was mentioned he was touted as the Arkansas’ “education” governor. I don’t think during his tenure it ever got much past Mississippi or WV in education ranking.

It was tame compared to the media orgasm by the “journo-listers” who colluded to spin the news and control the narrative to worship their false god, barry soetero aka obama.

I wonder if Taylor participated in the cremation of care ceremony with the bush family like he did at Bohemian Grove.

Bush was the ultimate globalist.

Bush was no Reagan, he was the ultimate inside swamp creature and lacked the vision to be a great leader. He was an apparatchik, not an inspiring leader like Reagan, or Trump.

True, back then only 3 networks plus PBS.

I wonder what the world would have looked like if Bush left the White House in January 1997 instead of 1992.

Probably a lot worse. You'd have a wishy-washy "compassionate conservative" president fighting with a Dem controlled Congress. The Republicans may have never taken back the House.

“Read my lips, no new taxes.” That was the albatross, nothing to do with Perot. Bush clearly thought he didn’t have to campaign, either.

I agree it was a mistake, but in Reagan’s defense, he had a front row seat to how Eisenhower and the Establishment went against Goldwater in 64, and thought he needed to unite the party in 1980 to win.

LOL, that was a huge move, from 48th to 47th.
