Well Jenna, your grandpa never should have said read my lips or did not break that promise plus Perot was no help.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

He didn’t “leave” office. He was defeated in no thanks to Perot.

[Mr. K]

Shouldn’t have said “Read My lips- no new taxes” and then passed the biggest tax increase in history...

[gibsonguy]

Jenna is clueless and naive.

[rottweiller_inc]

Yup. He could have either not said he wouldn’t taxes or not sign the bill that did. It was all on him.

[Mr. K]

Bush The Elder needed to go

After saying “read my lips- no new taxes” and then signing the biggest tax increase in history.

Perot may have helped give us Clinton, but Clinton gave us Newt Gingrich and the FIRST BALANCED BUDGET IN DECADES - that he signed.

Also Bush looking at his watch during the debate.

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Stop blaming Perot.
Perot simply tapped into a Nationalist agenda that the Stupid Party ignored after Reagan.
Also explains Pat Buchanan candidacy.

[dowcaet]

He was so crushed to the point that later he became best buds with Slick Willie.

[dfwgator]

Bush blew it all on his own. Besides, not a dime’s worth of difference between Bush and Clinton, they were two sides of the same coin.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

You’ll get no argument from me on the Bush/Clinton comparison. Yet, Perot didn’t help.

[M. Thatcher]

So they send a Bush out there.

That will reassure everyone that what we're seeing isn't an establishment op. /s

[dfwgator]

If I had to do it all over again, I would have voted for Perot.

[grobdriver]

Jenna, you’re an idiot.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Agree on all points. Not a wits difference between Bush & Clinton! And, the lemons into lemonade was truly Newt!

[SpaceBar]

If silver spoons could talk.

[HYPOCRACY]

Kennedy didn’t even get a full term thanks to your grampa.

[everlast]

Grandpa was a criminal of the highest order.

[dfwgator]

Molly Ivins was wrong on a lot of things, but she was right on about the Bushes.
