Barbara Bush gushes about Bill Clinton, says he treats George H. W. Bush like a father

Bill Clinton may have forced her husband out of office - but Barbara Bush still considers him family.

The former First Lady lavished praise on the man who defeated George H.W. Bush in 1992, lovingly saying that Clinton is “a good fellow” who is “very thoughtful about calling.”

“He never said a mean word about anyone,” she said in an interview with Parade Magazine set to appear this weekend.

She even revealed that her sons - including, of course, George W. Bush, who followed Clinton into the Oval Office - call him “My brother by another mother.”

“He’s very nice,” Barbara Bush continued. “I think she thinks of George [Sr.] as the father he never had.”

If Clinton had a father like George Bush he might actually have amounted to something. Just kidding, sort of.

Bill Clinton spends more time in Kennebunkport than he does his own home. He was there a couple of weeks ago. Probably still there now.

If Barbara Bush had another daughter-in-law she'd look like Monica Lewinski.

To them, the NWO is more important than the USA.

This is just an example of the characteristic of old ladies to always see the best in people and ignore their failings, call it the “Such a nice boy...” syndrome. It doesn’t help that she was a liberal country-clubber to begin with.

The Bushes are elitist a##holes, might as well call them what they are, they agree with ‘rats, just want to get to the same political goals a little differently, maybe.

But he is "very thoughtful about calling", and that's all that matters. Everything else is whitewater under the bridge.

She’s an old lady, kind of unseemly to attack her at this stage in her life. Who she likes and what she says doesn’t really matter all that much.

And the Romney “campaign” is all about winning the Senate for the RINOS and clearing the deck for Jeb Bush in 2016.

You hear stuff like this, and you just KNOW that the day will come when the population will be thinned, for the benefit of the elite.

Barbara Bush gushes .... and I gag.

That is quite an honor — having an acquired son who was disbarred as an attorney and impeached as a president.
