Over the weekend former First Lady Barbara Bush shocked some when she took a jab at Sarah Palin, saying she hopes the former Alaskan governor stays in Alaska. Now shes following that up with another surprising statement, this time saying that you cant dislike Bill Clinton.
During an interview with Larry King that aired in full Monday night, Barbara admitted that while it took me a little while to warm up to the man who beat her husband and won the presidency in 1992, she now has nothing but good things to say about him. You cant dislike Bill Clinton, she said. Hes very likable. And he was so good to George
he would let George have the bed. I have a feeling Bill wishes he had a father like George, truthfully:
LOL! You said what I was thinking. Yeah where are all the Bush-Bots that keep making excuses for them? These are the same clowns that would Rove is a genius line. LOL!
Indeed they are doing just that very thing. The abuses and tyranny of the Liberals in the GOP must be exposed for what they are. The Lindsey Graham, McConnell, & John McCain, crowd for starters. This Big Tent with RINO's being allowed to stampede through it is destructive and the stench is now unbearable. Time to cage them back up and not let them run loose.
Bingo! Now if conservatives could just understand that Bush was a fiscal Socialist. He expanded government the most of any President and that it was the biggest expansion of government since LBJ. That is not including the money spent to respond to the September 11th attacks. Some people on here still believe he was a conservative because the rats in the media and press told them so.
We need leadership like Ronald Reagan and not another Bush. Please people end the madness!...
I don’t dislike Bill Clinton. I hate his effin guts.
He is a drug dealing, woman molesting socialist and probably the 3rd worst president in American History. Right after Obastard and Carter.
I don’t know, thinking Jeb could read the writing on the wall.
All the RINOs and libs can say anything they want, The Tea Parties and Palin are going to be damn hard to stop.
Had W not had 9/11, I think he would have been able to get much more conservative aspects in place, but with 9/11 it would have not been prudent to not keep it on top burner and consuming most attention. The RINOs and libs saw the openings and pushed just enough to get the ball rolling for the Grand Theft which the libs steered toward socialism.
He had a Republican congress and senate and a Vice President that could have helped him on the domestic front. GW is a huge disappointment. Good man, but “COMPASSIONATE CONSERVATISM” ended up being more RINO crap.
Yep you’re right. He wasn’t focuses on the W.O.T. He was using it to push through his stinking trade agreements. He had no concept of military of purpose there of either. The help for the military never came. 9/11 should have been a call for defense build up. Instead we went into further reductions. Now every little two bit third world thug leader is feeling froggy to try us. But a lot of the blame of the Bush failures must be given to the six year house and senate Republican liberal bipartisan leadership as well.
Correct on the congress and senate—but the President should have provided better leadership. That’s where GW stryed from conservative principle.
As repulsive a man as our Rapist-in-Chief is, his sale of nuclear secrets to the Chinese is a capital offense to me, and even worse than his serial raping and abusing of women. Barbara, you may be a nice woman, but you are a chump!
AND, even worse, that Bush left his co-pilot behind to die needlessly. No Bill, that was TED KENNEDY! Bob
I was always suspicious of the Bushes. Mostly because when Reagan won the primaries, there was a backroom deal that forced George Bush on Reagan as VP. Reagan didn’t particularly like Bush. The RINO’s try to use the small govt rhetoric of Reagan, but they push for big government, entitlements, gun control, etc. at every turn. I believe we can’t be naive, as RINO’s lie all the time - they know what to say to us, and we take the bait too easily. We should not be played for fools!
Beggin yer pardon, Mrs. Bush, but yes I can dislike Bubba Clinton.
Just a few examples:
Several terrorist attacks occured on his watchKhobar Towers, USS Cole, the U.S. Embassy attacks in Kenya and Tanzania, and the FIRST attack on the World Trade Center in 1993all of them went unanswered. Instead, he wagged-the-dog in Somalia and the Balkans.
The Sudanese arrested Bin Laden in 1996, and offered to extradite him. Bubba refused. Three times after Aug. 20, 1998, when Clinton ordered the only missile strike of his presidency against bin Ladens organization, the CIA came close enough to pinpointing bin Laden that Clinton authorized final preparations to launch. In each case, (Clintons) doubts about the intelligence aborted the mission. Bin Laden got away.
He also committed treason in exchange for Chinese cash.
ChinaGate:
He and algores (one word) Chinese/Indonesian friends bought the 1996 election in exchange for information on, among other items, classified satellite technology. Johnny Chung, a fund-raiser for the Democratic Party, illegally funneled thousands of dollars from Chinese military agents to the Clinton-Gore re-election campaign. John Huang and Charlie Trie were indicted on charges related to those crimes, but when the FBI tried to investigate, it was blocked by Janet Reno.
FBI Investigators wanted to do a search on Charlie Tries home but again, were denied by Renos DOJ. This gave Trie all the time in the world to destroy documents which would have blown the case wide open. What few documents they retrieved, were serious enough to indict him.
Janet Reno was flat-out guilty of obstruction of justice.
READ THE COX REPORT. It detailed the technology and information transferred to China that helped further their ICBM program.

FileGate:
Clinton illegally obtained as many as 900 FBI files on individuals who were former employees (political enemies) during the previous Republican Administrations, including President Reagans and your husbands.
TravelGate:
Bill and Hillary used an Arkansas travel agency, World Wide Travel (working with Clintons cousin Catherine Cornelius). The firm had provided a million dollars in deferred (fly now- pay later) travel for the Clinton campaign, freeing up much needed cash for campaigning. Employees of the firm donated to the Clinton campaign. The apparent pay-back to the firm was supervised by supervised by Hillary. When the story broke, she fired all the employees and threatened them with FBI investigations if they talked.
Bubba prefered Monicas mouth-to-crotch resuscitation over protecting this country.
As a matter of fact, with good reason, I CAN HATE Bubba Clinton.
I’ve never met Bill Clinton; however, I know a few people who have. They’ve consistently described him as very charasmatic and personable.
Clinton is a natural con artist. Fortunately, he made “flim-flam” look easy. I say fortunately because Al Gore and John Kerry tried to act like Clinton but didn’t have his talent.
I’m sure he’s a fun guy to hang out with. I just don’t particularly respect him.
