The story just broke when I posted so the flags were not lowered yet for her.

What a life well-lived. She now joins Jackie Kennedy, Lady Bird Johnson, Pat Nixon, Betty Ford, Nancy Reagan, and Barbara Bush in the skies.

While their politics and mine differ, I will offer my full respect to them for their marriage and how they conducted themselves post presidency.

I doubt Rosalynn realized that chubby dude at one Democrat fundraiser posing next to her was John Wayne Gacy.

Jimmah may hang on awhile longer as long as his buddies, the Palis are still warring with Israel.

That’s the mark of a true Democrat - always rooting for the wrong team.

Jimmie will join her soon. Couples like that go out together, or nearly together. RIP

Until Melania, every first lady after Pat Nixon was a nut, a doper with a clinic named after them, an abortion aficionado, a mystic consulting seers and fortune tellers, channeling Eleanor with seances, mouthy Babs Bush probably served sandwiches and coffee to the guys plotting the JFK hit in her living room and they didn’t need to stop talking when she came in the room. Laura Bush the pro abort who raised two libtard daughters, Hillary a lesbo who bedded Web Hubbell, and tried to grab control of the healthcare industry. Moochelle Obama the grifter who moved her mom in also.

You name it.. they are all loons or power mad. Melania is the first one that just acted like a wife and had a little class, and raised a good family.

So when Jimmy dies, are they going to throw a Wellstone memorial state funeral for him, complete with MAGA-trashing eulogies? I’d bet on it.

I’m sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine the pain of losing both parents in one week.

Jimmy would be considered far right by today’s standards. Even Bill Clinton would.

Jimmy’s biggest problem was poor leadership skills plus being stuck with the bill for the Great Society and the Vietnam War.

He was patriotic but not good presidential material.

Jimmy was/is in the same hospice care. Beyond their politics, they were/are very fine people.

Hopefully it won’t be the 4-day plus a trainride extravaganza it took to cut the strings on the one-world puppet we knew as Heorge H. W. Bush

Jimmy has asked Biden to deliver the eulogy at his funeral .... that should be an “entertaining” train wreck.

This will break him. A bad President but overall decent man. My guess is he wont see the new year.
