A caller just mentioned George W. Bush making a comment on the present political situation in a negative fashion against President Trump AND in defense of the media!!! He is a TRAITOR along with McCain, Graham and other Republicans who are corrupt, bought-off and leading this nation over the edge of the cliff. The caller made an excellent point the Bush had nothing to say about Obama's wrecking ball on the nation.
The elites are all on the special lifeboat while the Titana-US is sinking after hitting the immigrationliberalleftistpro-immorality iceberg.
Not one word from Bush during the Obama years.
Only now does he start running his mouth.
I guess he is afraid Trump will erase the tiny legacy he left behind.
If George W Bush criticizes you, you know for a fact you are doing the right thing. Always.
And one more outs himself again in his ignorance.
It's a Constitutional Republic, Jorge...you know, that thing you swore to preserve, protect and defend.
He is trying to sell a book.
Everyone of Matt's questions were heavily baited, W didn't take the bait, he simply stated his view of the subject of the question.
If you ask me I think when he was asked about the ban and how that effects the war on terrorism he said we can't win if we are in retreat and leaving places too soon, a direct hit on Zippo!
The questions were designed to get you think negatively even before you heard the answer.
JMHO
You raise a good point here. I’m starting to regret campaigning for him, twice.
Great post. I really appreciate it. Viewing the actual interview makes me realize Bush was not as harsh as conservative panic media made him out to be.
There is no doubt our side is more then capable of throwing us red meat to keep us nicely engaged and agitated. I am seeing plenty of that and this is one example.
Thank you very much.
Give one example of him ever mentioning obama negatively.
Just one...
I know what I heard him say, and the newscaster said the he said this because President Trump said the press was the enemy of the people. In other words, a rebuke of President Trump. Which was and is a damned lie. President never said the press[media] is the enemy of the people. He said”The lying media is the enemy of the people”. And everyone that parrots that “The press/media is the enemy of the people” crap knows that they are repeating a lie. So, yes, he [Bush] was rebuking President Trump when he answered the question as he did. You can defend him until the cows come home, but we know what he meant.
When you get on someone,Lucy T, as mild mannered as you are, they have been bad.
And then went on to explain why an independent media is important.Matt: Did you ever consider the media to be the ememy of the American people?
W: Hahaha. "I consider the media to be indispensable to democracy.
Bush sure had trouble slamming Zero for eight years. The silence was deafening..
Yes. A cowardly evasion.
The Bush’s have always been traitors.
the links between ‘ Poppy’ Bush and the Kennedy assassination and attempted murder of Reagan always seemed uneasy to me
W: Well I think it's very hard to fight the war on terrorism if we're in retreat. And ah, I think we learned that lesson, I think if the United States decides to pull out before, ah, a free society emerges, ah it's going to be hard to defeat them. And so on.That is a direct hit on Zippo pulling out of Iraq.
Now if you're asking me if W said anything in 8 years, of course not, AS HE SHOULDN'T!. But he is selling a book and had to answer some questions. Look, I dislike W AND H immensely, but I'm just trying to be fair.
A gentleman as a former POTUS should be.
Well, TX and George P. have not gotten that message yet.
Lol.
Conservatives desperately wanted to be fooled by GWB in 2000, and they were.
GHWB was the first Republican ever to write off CA in 1992, and that doomed the Bruce Hershenson Senate race against Boxer too.
As for GWB being “Democrat”, a real Democrat, Ann Willis Richards was “not amused” in 1994.
