His actions during WWII are somewhat suspect. Hailed as a hero, but marred by the deaths of his crew when his plane was shot up.

Yeah, you're such a great hero roadcat...

I didn’t always agree with him politically, but I always felt he was sincere and honest (for a politician). He served his country honorably. And he and his wife, First Lady Barbara Bush, had class, something which 2 out of three of his successors did not.

Reagan had to get the RINOs on board. They paid lip service to Reagan’s beliefs but they never took them seriously.

You wonder why conservatives are a political minority? Because of people like Bush, that’s why. Designated Losers.

CNN praising his dignity and humility. They know he knew how to cater to the Deep State, they must contrast him to Trump.

This will give the MSM a reason not to report on Huber and the Clinton foundation next week. Strange how these things always come at such a convenient time for the deep State.

Funny, they did the opposite during the 1988 campaign and during his term
In office.

The Republican Jimmy Carter.

Always a cogent, sophisticated comment from you. That must have taken a lot of intellect. Well done.

Halfway.
Then set up a screwy no fly zone and retrieve much of their weapons and ordnance.

I remember his approval rating was at 90%. Right after he won the Gulf War. No other president before or since ever hit that high of a number. Yet he lost his bid for reelection. Voting Americans are very fickl and have short memories.

His two judicial appointments to the Supreme Court were a miss and a hit. He gave us the execrable David Souter and the stellar Clarence Thomas.

Except Oklahomans, who still hated him for the filthy bitch he was married to.

The lesson that Bush taught us, is that if you lose your base, you’re dead, a lesson Trump seems to have learned.

Yup.

Trump’s challenge is to expand his base if he wants to win a sweeping victory.

He has two years to get it done and it began the day after the midterms.
