Barbara Bush in failing health
https://www.cnn.com/2018/04/15/politics/barbara-bush-health/index.html ^

Posted on 04/15/2018 11:18:07 AM PDT by Eyes Unclouded

Former first lady Barbara Bush is in failing health, a source close to the Bush family tells CNN. At 92 years old, Bush has been suffering for some time and has been in and out of the hospital multiple times in the last year while battling with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, or COPD, and congestive heart failure. The source said she is being cared for at her home in Houston and has decided she does not want to go back into the hospital.

SNL used to make fun of her look as well....

Pat Stevens: So, we are ready to meet our guests today. Very, very special ladies, they are the Republican First-Lady hopefuls, running neck and neck. Welcome, please, Barbara Bush and Elizabeth Dole.

[ they come out and sit ]

It’s so nice having you both - of course, Elizabeth, you and I are old friends. And, Barbara.. well. I’d like to congratulate George on his starling victory in New Hampshire, he’s doing well in the south, he’s had a wonderful reign as Vice-President.. tell me - are you proud of your son?

Barbara Bush: Pat.. George is not my son, he’s my husband.

Pat Stevens: Oh, heavens! I guess I dropped a fly in your soup! Well, she looks so much older, I hardly think it’s my faux pas! I turn now to Elizabeth Dole - now, you and your husband have written a remarkable book.

And why would you question a prayer about the desperate need for evil people such as this to repent?

Not to speak for others but what came to my mind when I ready your first post in this thread was that you might benefit from prayerful meditation on the first few verses in the seventh chapter of the book of St Matthew.

Sorry Mr Ramsbotham if I've spoken out of turn.

? What in the world are you talking about?

Instead, why don’t you both join in prayers for the repentance of Barbara and the man she is “one flesh with” in marriage for their consistent lying, pro abortion beliefs, and other GOPe deceptions?

Praying that the Holy Spirit does His job... conviction of sin... is a good work of prayer.

So please join in, and Lord bless.

I see all the boys have their tie flipped over their right shoulder......

And short sleeved button shirts with tie.

You'd think that alone would have resulted in bans from the Ivy League.

"When either Bush finally goes, do you think Trump will be welcome at the funeral?

I can't even fathom the pettiness of all the former POTUS's and their families frankly hating our Lion and doing nothing for him the last 451 days, never a word to give this guy a chance like the did Da-One, and no they won't let it go especially with the Clinton Foundation in grand jury mode in AK. Can you imagine how icy cold that will be? My guess is the Bush Clan goes private event to side step all that and to stick it too PDJT, worse it will snub Melania, she deserves none of that with her grace.

Yeb! won’t want to harm George P. Bush’s future by snubbing POTUS too much. They’ve got big plans for him.

Picture was probably taken at Walker’s Point, Kennebunkport, Maine in the middle of the summer when the rest of us Mainers would have been wearing shorts and t-shirts.

On a separate note, I hope Barbara can get to Walker’s Point one last time.

COPD can come from exposure to asbestos.

I read that as “from exposure to asshats.” Between her husband, her biological sons, and her “other son” Billy, she was right in the danger zone!

No comment.

Which is obviously not correct.

Just say it, instead of trying to be clever by half.

She said 'We've had enough Bush's' when he announced he was running.

Ouch, although she later tried to backtrack and even campaigned with him which drew even more attention to her earlier comment.
