George W. Bush Didn't Vote for Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump
Fortune ^ | November 8, 2016 | Sarah Begley

Posted on 11/08/2016 2:16:29 PM PST by McGruff

George W. Bush and Laura Bush voted two weeks ago, but did not vote for either major party candidate, a spokesperson said.

In a statement to the Wall Street Journal, the spokesperson declined to say whether the former president and first lady had voted for a third-party candidate or whether they had written in another name. Although reports apparently erroneously claimed that the Bushes had voted for Hillary Clinton on Tuesday, the failure to vote for Republican nominee Donald Trump is in itself a major departure from political tradition.

I supported GWB. No more.
may GWB GTH.

He is free to vote however he wishes, or not to vote .. but he has no business publicizing his Non-support for the party’s nominee. This is a push for HilLIARy.
No way, George.
Leave us alone, you and your entire family.

The GOPe are doing everything they can to get us to leave the party. They want us gone so they can run a Romneyite fake conservative every 4 years.

Disgusting.

We worked our butts off to get him elected both times and he pulls a stunt like this.

Regardless of the election result, the coming civil war in the GOP will be epic.

I am so very very angry at the Republican party now. They have become traitors to me.

Time for an enema in D.C. flush out the effluent. I used to think it was a primarily DEMOCRAT problem. Now, I am convinced it is most of the Republican party, too.

The Bushes. How do I hate thee. Let me count the ways. Actually I don’t have time to vote that high.

And W, I didn’t vote for you in 2004 and I’ve always felt great about it, you fraud, you wolf in sheep’s clothing. Jesus warned us about you but we didn’t listen.

Fair-minded people don’t give credence to unnamed spokespersons.

No more Clintons, Bushes or Kennedy’s for any elected office in America.

Shun these evil bastards.

This is intentional. He wants conservatives to leave the party so they can tilt it left. No secret. Goes back to the 2012 GOP “autopsy”.

We have found out who and where the real Bushes stand. It explains why he wanted amnesty,and to think we held our noses for McCain, and Romney.

Both Bush presidents were great men.

The elder Bush may qualify as a great man on account of his distinguished service during WWII, but by that standard George McGovern is also a great man. There was no hint of greatness to be had anywhere in the elder Bush's political career.

As for the younger Bush, the only way I would use that adjective in the same sentence as his name is as "great failure" or "great mediocrity."
