Well, GW does know a winner when he sees one...that statement was a dead giveaway that Cruz is the one to watch!
And we all know that Clinton is a Motherfkr.
Finally George W Bush goes “gutter “.
“George W. unleashed...”
More like “unplugged”
This is perhaps the most important comment on the thread. We MUST have a President who will clean house in the bureaucracy and stand up to the media, two things Dubya was a miserable failure at.
It would not be Jeb, either.
I totally trust Politico’s reporting on this outrage!
The BSD posts are disappointing regardless of the typical Primaries bravado.
You’re spouting a lot of crap.
“I have great respect for George W Bush, and was proud to work on his 2000 campaign and in his administration," Cruz said. "It's no surprise that President Bush is supporting his brother and attacking the candidates he believes pose a threat to his campaign. I have no intention of reciprocating. I met my wife Heidi working on his campaign, and so I will always be grateful to him."
I think that was a gracious reply to the attack.
Anyone who makes the mistake of assuming W was not part of the GOPe is not paying attention.
In fact, it was W's candidacy which opened my eyes to the GOPe, their very real presence and influence in the Party.
When the local Caucus was held for POTUS nomination at the end of Clinton's second term, I had no sooner arrived (and no vote been cast) when we were informed by the local Party Chair that George W Bush was going to be the candidate. Other stunts have ensued which indicated a very top down influence in the GOP. I thought that could be changed, but it has taken 16 years for that to reach critical mass, and few would listen if one complained.
Only the last two POTUS defeats have hammered the point home, finally, in spite of the "lesser evil" mantra, and I hope the awakening is sufficient and in time to save this Republic from what has become a power cartel in the nation's capital.
They are in a small group in the US. As members of that group, they have had one of the most prestigious addresses in the world. They have more in common with each other than the average voter, and they know it. It's a tight club.
Too bad he couldn’t do a little serious ‘unleashing’ against the Progressives and Liberals during his time in office (instead we got Justice Roberts).
Bush silent on fairy boy and his left wing radical policies, silent on Hillary, but can speak up to attack Cruz.
What more proof does one need t see the Bushs are working with the left.
Yep, being criticized by W is plus mark in Cruz’s column for me.
But, Cruz did not need one.
Go cry on Bill Clinton’s shoulder, George. And while you’re at it, give Ramos and Compean commiseratory phone calls. Maybe Scooter Libby will lend you a sympathetic ear, Pal.
If the establishment doesn’t like Cruz or is afraid of him that is a plus for Cruz in my book. If I don’t get the nomination I will throw all my support behind Cruz.
Criminal enterprise uber alles.
I mean W.
Not that I’m cool with what he said about Cruz, but this may not be accurate. Remember, this is a private function and this was what someone said someone said. Sure President Bush has not publicly criticized Obama, but I’d be willing to bet he has privately.
