Not sure if it's a good idea for Trump to go after GWB, as GWB isn't running and I at least respect him for his leadership after 9/11 and his support among the troops. But Bush really did piss away what could have been a legendary legacy.
“Sounds like he doesn’t like the Bushes very much.”
Neither do I and I voted for both of them twice.
Actually Dubya’s best moment was when he was in Indonesia or somewhere and they tried to keep the SS from coming in the dinner with him and he had to go back and jump in the crowd and drag the secret service guy through the security line. That was a thumbs up, fist bump moment.
He sure aint skeered! LOL
This picture of Hillary reminds me of the wicked witch of the west, with her hands clasped as she tries to come up with her dastardly plans.
Keepin it classy, Donald.
Headline gets it wrong. Trump wasn’t saying he enjoyed Bush getting a show thrown at him, but that it was Bush’s best moment on TV.
Agreed, it was sewn up.
Wow, I completely missed that. But after checking the date, now I know why. After the elections that year, I think I spent about three months taking a break from the Internet. I was so burned out.
Secret Service should’ve killed the shoe-thrower after the first shoe. He should never have had a second chance.
More important, we had a very good base just to the west of Iran and in Afghanistan another one just to the east of Iran. We will need both when we invade, because you won’t take out the Iranian nukes by air.
Zero would have had a few chuckles from it.
Was it a breach of security, yes, but was I surprised by it, no.
Everyone wanted is to walk away from the precious blood of our soldiers at that point.
And we did...
And we had that sumbitch war won when Zero came in and unraveled everything. Read Michael Yon’s war memos.
No, we didn't. Nobody ever defined what "victory" meant, so we just left a house of cards behind and got the hell out. It was Bush, not Obama, who signed the Status of Forces Agreement that laid out the time line for the withdrawal of U.S. forces. In fact, I believe the December 2008 shoe-throwing incident took place at an event staged in Iraq to commemorate that agreement.
"I think for us to get American military personnel involved in a civil war inside Iraq would literally be a quagmire."
"I do not think the United States wants to have U.S. military forces accept casualties and accept the responsibility of trying to govern Iraq. I think it makes no sense at all."
--- U.S. Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney (April 7, 1991)
You weren’t surprised that the security team of the President of the US (no matter who it is) would allow someone in a closed room to throw an object at the POTUS? I think it’s outrageous. They all should have been fired. The man should have been shot. It could have been a grenade.
This one was good:

If you do some research, you will understand why Ross Perot didn’t like GHWB. Ross was working for President Reagan in charge of something to do with the POWs and MIAs. GHWB stabbed him in the back over something to do with that appointment. I can’t remember the specifics right now, but, it had something to do with that.
Screw Trump. Evidently he was golfing while Bush was on the ruins of the twin towers with the first responders.
Don’t get me started.
Obama and the libtards set the world alight.
Trump is right again. I owe him an error but he never makes one.
