I do believe that we are seeing mental aging here in George H W Bush BUT equally we are seeing how an 'aristocrat' makes decisions based upon personal reasons. I bring this post to the fore to add a domestic perception to the ERROR espoused by this former President. His nomination and the confirmation of Justice David Souter showed how flawed his decision could be, relying upon a cadre of New England friends to assure him of the man's conservative credentials.

In that light, we must remember that to vote FOR HILLARY is the same as voting for a probable permanent LEFT tilt to the US Supreme Court for the next generation. That alone, should have led him to emulate his son, George W Bush, in, at the very least concept of doing no harm, to leave the Presidential vote BLANK!

When Souter was nominated, many in the MSM thought he was a stealth candidate, or a stealth ultra-conservative. I’ve believed for quite a few years that he was a stealth candidate, but GHWB’s stealth, pro-abortion liberal candidate.

GHWB got exactly what he wanted in Souter.

The Bushies live in a bubble full of deep state doodoo.

This will not convince many regular dims and lefties that they are or were good guys, and this is only repugnant to the republican base. Their appoval rate keeps going down.

So the Bushies want to ingratiate themselves to the elitist swamp creatures in DC and the coasts? Whatever for?

How do the Bushes manage to talk so much with their mouths full of Royal Saudi manhood? It’s like a ventriloquist act.

President Reagan’s BIGGEST MISTAKE was taking George H W Bush as his VP.

I understand why Reagan did it and do not fault him for it. This is because where are country politically was at the time. Reagan had to pick and choose his battles, and he was thinking of the big picture.

Can you imagine if the Bush-wing (aka the Fake Republicans wing that are DNC plants at the top) tried to force President Trump in 2016 to add Jeb on to the Trump ticket as his VP?

I think President Trump would have told the Bushs to go pound sand. Although President Trump could get away with it today, but I don’t think so in 1980 against the Bush family. Again it was a different time for our Republic.

I remember a BLOWHARD politician named George H. Bush telling me.. "read my lips, NO new taxes"... followed by a tax increase.

George senior can go pi$$ up a rope.

“”If one presidential candidate can disassemble a political party, it speaks volumes about how strong a legacy its past two presidents really had,” a White House official told CNN.””

I love the snappy repartees we have been seeing lately. Even in the middle of my sleepless nights, hours after a comment was called for, I couldn’t come up with anything that fast! Or that good!
