Thanks for posting! I knew that G.H.W. Bush would never say such a thing but most here are more than willing to believe it.
I think that Bush the father associated with Clinton on the charity stuff to keep his eye on him and keep him (as much as possible), from criticizing the President.
“Former President Bush wholeheartedly supports the president of the United States, including his foreign policy. He has never discussed an ‘around -the-world mission’ with either former President Bill Clinton or Sen. Clinton, nor does he think such a mission is warranted since he is proud of the role America continues to play around the world as the beacon of home for freedom and democracy,” Becker said. “President Bush is excited about several of the excellent Republican candidates running for President, and looks forward to supporting their candidacy once the Republican nominee is determined.”
