Bush daughter supports gay marriage

How the heck would you know that. Fact is, you know very little about her, you’re just pouting because she came out for gay marriage.

_________something in the water.

Being Manhattan born, Long Island raised, NYC water had (has?) a reputation for being excellent. MIL’s coffee was the best. Bagels are the best. Water? We think so.

Now, this was in the 40’s - 60’s. Maybe different now? Dunno - no longer live there.

‘L O V E,’ Barbara Bush said.
It’s all about love, isn’t it - - - ??

Thank you, and God Bless your family also.

[Psalm 144]

“Quite honestly, after listening once again to this interview with Charlie Gibson (ABC), there is not a single shred of Biblical truth or knowledge that GWB quotes from. He simply CANNOT express the name of “GOD”, but only uses a generic name “the Almighty”, although at the end he links “Almighty” & God together in one phrase. It does not appear that GWB knows Biblical truth in any way, shape or form, as he never quotes from the Bible, just his version of “I think this or that”.”

Sounds like the generalized approach used by 12 Step rehab programs.

Nah, NOT the fake I.D. incident. THIS one:

And then there was the shot of Jenna sticking out her tongue. Like I said, classy chicks...NOT.

Post as you wish.

OK, you asked for it.

Every cliche and accusation you have reiterated so far is perfectly in line with the moral and intellectual inheritance to be gained from the culture which produced Mather, Beecher, Emerson, the Kennedys, Frank, Romney and the Bush family for that matter.

Since we’re talking “intellectual inheritance to be gained from the culture which produced Mather, Beecher, Emerson….” maybe we can reflect again upon how intellectually bereft your Mississippi education has caused to you become, assuming of course that you have any to speak of in the first place. If those are the only names you found that you were capable of associating with New England your education manifests a level of impoverishment unseen in few others I have ever had the pleasure of conversing with over the >12 years I have been posting here.

If you’re going to go all the way back to Mather c.1692, I’ll go back even further to names that your ignorant Mississippi education has apparently overlooked. As I said we New Englanders are a hearty bunch and we name among our prominent personalities the following:

William Bradford, author of the Mayflower Compact, as well as the surviving band of Pilgrims whose celebration of Thanksgiving became the uniquely American observance that it has remained for what is soon to be almost 400 years.

Then there’s Roger Williams, founder of what became the great State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, a first among religious and politically independent leaders of his day. The “Independent Man” sits atop the state capitol today.

You dumped on Mather - a prominent religious leader of his day, as representative of personalities from New England for whom Americans in your view should harbor deep disdain. One cannot deny the part played by early American religious institutions in coalescing a philosophy of freedom which underpinned what became the American Revolution. Before the American Revolution there arose a number of religious revivalists, noteworthy among them, Jonathan Edwards, whose seminal sermon delivered in Enfield, CT in 1741, “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God” inspired many of those who would participate in the Revolution to come.

The cradle of the American Revolution and in fact the site of the very first “Tea Party,” which gives both the inspiration and impetus to today’s Tea Party Movement took place in Boston, MA. Patriots by the name of Paul Revere, William Dawes, whose deeds were immortalized in the poetry of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (Portland, ME), are names most sufficiently educated persons know though you evidently have failed to recall, (assuming you ever knew them at all). And not to be missed also are the multiple Patriots who met the British at the “rude Bridge” – as poet RW Emerson so eloquently referred to it in his “Concord Hymn.” Oh, that’s right, you have a problem with Emerson, don’t you.

Well here’s just a few more names from New England, who, due to your lack luster education, you are likely not going to recognize, but who effectively launched the intellectual and cultural inheritance of America at a time when your people in the backwater swamps of Mississippi were still speaking French or Spanish. Of course without these statesmen we wouldn’t have had the country to begin with:

SIGNERS of the Declaration of Independence from New England

Connecticut

Roger Sherman, Samuel Huntington, William Williams, Oliver Wolcott

Massachusetts

John Hancock, Samuel Adams, John Adams, Robert Treat Paine, Elbridge Gerry

New Hampshire

Josiah Bartlett, William Whipple, Matthew Thornton

Rhode Island

Stephen Hopkins, William Ellery

If the most memorable Mississippi figure you’ve got is some queer boy like Trent Lott, and some RINO like Thad Cochran, well, even though Haley Barbour is a good man, not a one of them would be worthy of lacing the shoes of the New Englanders I just named.

Now the difference between Cotton Mather and you is that he was remorseful over what had transpired under his leadership in Salem, MA. This led to a soul-cleansing catharsis in the wake of the “trials.” A "House of Seven Gables" was made famous by another Salem, MA resident, and author Nathaniel Hawthorne, Among other noteworthy New England writers and authors are named Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, John Greenleaf Whittier, James Russell Lowell, Louisa May Alcott, Emily Dickinson, John Audubon, Henry David Thoreau The list goes on….

By contrast, can you even name one prominent statesman, citizen, or author of any significance to the founding of American who hails from Mississippi -- whose talents could even hold a candle to any one of those names above?

New England has produced a total of 7 of the 44 US Presidents who have ever served. Can you tell us all how many US Presidents Mississippi has produced? (Answer =0).

Since you’re from Mississippi, I understand how you’d have a problem with an abolitionist like Harriett Ward Beecher (Litchfield, CT), author of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” and probably Mark Twain (Redding, and Hartford, CT) too. The Underground Railroad probably cut into your fore bearer’s profit margins.

So without so much as contributing to the Revolution or the defense of the US in the War 1812 for that matter, Mississippi becomes a state in 1817 and within the space of 45 years chose to take up arms against the country it voted to join to protect its slavery-driven economy.

Trees will bear their appropriate fruit, after all.

And where Mississippi is concerned I’d have to agree with you – the trees do bear a rather unpleasant “fruit” down around where you are….

We shall see which crop is gathered up and burned in the long run.

It was called “Mississippi Burning” for a reason.

When it comes to burning things you guys sure know how to have a party.

And to think y'all still have that redneck rebel flag embedded in your state flag to his day.

You have shown how demonstrably little you know about geography and the foundational and historical heritage of this nation.

[surfer]

But the real question given how most of the New England states are hopelessly liberal and on the verge of bankruptcy (CT #2 most likely).

You have to ask yourself would those great Patriots that you mentioned be caught dead in today’s New England states?

I’m just saying...

[surfer]

and for the record I think the Bush’s have been totally outed and now they are just showing their true Progressive colors and lets not forget that directly because of the GOP and the Bush’s we now have Obama...

[lonestar]

And then there was the shot of Jenna sticking out her tongue...

to reporters! I loved it.

I'd never seen that pic. The people in the background certainly aren't reacting.

Unfortuneatly, they were probably not doing anything a lot of college kids do.

Jenna seems to have turned out the young lady most parents would hope for...and seemed to be the most rebellious when in the lime light.

Jenna has always been my favorite...seems "full of it" like her dad.

[Agamemnon]

But the real question...

Sorry, that wasn't the real question.

Some idiot with an in-bred intellect maligned those of us who happen to reside in New England. He revealed how little he knew both geographically as well as historically.

He confused NY with New England. I gave him a chance to retract and back down. He didn't, he insisted on being a jerk, he dared me, and I ran him through. Simple.

He insinuated that as a New Englander I was bigoted, and I just reacquainted him with his own rich heritage in that regard.

It's really no more complicated than that.

FReegards!

[Agamemnon]

and for the record I think the Bush’s have been totally outed and now they are just showing their true Progressive colors and lets not forget that directly because of the GOP and the Bush’s we now have Obama...

Too simplistic. We have Obama because we had McCain as the candidate, had $5T of foreign investment being withdrawn from the economy on one day in September - almost collapsing the dollar completely, TARP rammed down our throats with a gun to our heads -- a totally contrived "emergency," and because Obama got $700 MM in untraceable campaign cash in 2008 in the face of an uncritcal media.

Bush's failure to veto (R) spending when he could have and waiting to lift the off-shore drill ban until a time when Dems had the congressional levers of power was part of the problem -- no doubt about that.

Don't miss the complete picture or slip into the stupidity that that other poster insisted on manifesting.

In your state, Jeb was generally a good governor when he served. I wouldn't be dismissive just because a name happens to be Bush.

FReegards!

[surfer]

Between the failures of the GOP including running McCain and the furious progressive pace Bush set with his police state tactics and spending it was the perfect storm to let a complete anti-American president like Ozero get into office.

Bush is our Hoover...

My God man we will be paying for these idiots for generations...is that simplistic enough for you?

Bush’s statement that assures him a spot in Hall of Fame of stupidity - We had to abandon the principles of the free market to save the free market.

TOTAL BS - He knew exactly what he was doing and is happy to see our freedom and liberty destroyed - I wouldn’t be surprised if Bush used a copy of the US Constitution as a freakin doormat!

[rcrngroup]

You got that right!

[Agamemnon]

You'll understand a lot more if you study Obozo's 2008 campaign rise from nowhere to beat Hillary Clinton in the primary to exploitation of contrived economic calmity served up be the likes of off-shore currency manipulators like Soros and US currency and asset traders like Goldman-Sachs. Follow the money.

Bush is our Hoover...

Unlike Hoover, Bush did not freeze liquidity in the wake of the 9/11 catastrophe the way Hoover did in response to the Stock market crash and the passage of Smoot-Hawley. Your comparison is nothing more than a media cartoon that you have apparently bought into.

Don't allow yourself to become so impressionable by the whims and accusations lodged by the MSM. It's dificult enough trying to pull mush-headed liberals back from the brink of ill-informed ill-logic without having to do the same for those who call themselves conservatives, who likewise have done insufficient research before they post their commentary.

My God man we will be paying for these idiots for generations...is that simplistic enough for you?

If you're at all old enough to remember, you may recall the same used to be said about Kennedy, Johnson, and Carter Administrations back in the day too. What's simplistic is your seeming inability to look past "the now" and to look forward to the next conservative leader for another generation, who, like Reagan (whose arrival was also unanticiapted by the elites of 30 years ago) turns the establishment upside down, and places the world on an overdue course correction.

If you cede the future to those who are currently in charge, you will never find yourself on the winning side, and you will fail to recognize the day our side starts winning as you insist on perfection.

Bush’s statement that assures him a spot in Hall of Fame of stupidity - We had to abandon the principles of the free market to save the free market.

Study history, learn what it was like for a single banker by the name of JP Morgan who almost singlehandedly bailed out the US government with his gold reserves and loan guarantees during a similarly contrived run back in the late 1800's. It was part of the impetus that was meant to give rise to the Federal Reserve in 1913.

When markets are purposefiully distorted as drastically as they were then as well as in 2008, when choices are few to non-existant in the face of money manipulators who are as powerful as they have been allowed to become -- especially with the Fed now behind them, an admission by Bush such as he made was not to say he was pleased that his Administration was forced into doing what it did. Condemning Bush is far too simplistic. Like I said follow the money. Start with guys by the name of Paulson, Soros, and institutional, supra-partisan money traders like Goldman-Sachs. Get some perspective.

TOTAL BS - He knew exactly what he was doing and is happy to see our freedom and liberty destroyed - I wouldn’t be surprised if Bush used a copy of the US Constitution as a freakin doormat!

Hyperbole doesn't strengthen the inherent weakness of your point.

[surfer]

You seriously need to wake up to what is really going on...if you can’t or won’t then you are part of the problem.

[Agamemnon]

Are you off your Ritalin, or are you just retarded?

Focus. Did I say anywhere that the Muslim Brotherhood hadn't infiltrated the Obama Administration?

Are you even posting on the right thread?

Bush's name wasn't mentioned once by that person in your video. In fact the video focuses primarily on current infiltration in the Obama administration.

She indicted Administrations in a very broad and general sense going back > 30 years.

Did you even watch the video you posted?

"Psalm 144" is a newbie and you're not. You post like a newbie. You should know better.

Don't make me have to hand you your head like I did to that other moron.

[Psalm 144]

It amuses me to see you flail so much, and with so much malice, and miss so often.

You are a classic of your type.

[surfer]

Threaten me again and I will follow up on it.

[Agamemnon]

Looks like this thread's resident redneck bigot has been rendered a speechless.

Heeeeeer's your sign!

[Agamemnon]

Threaten me again and I will follow up on it.

Keep posting like you have the intellectual equivalent of tourette syndrome and you will continue to be my punching bag.
