skinink: "When asked what was the biggest misconception about her husband, former President George W. Bush, during his time in office, Laura Bush said, "That he was a heedless cowboy character.""
Had George Bush done more to the economy when it was in a recession, he would have won re-election. After the success of the first Gulf War, his approval rating was crazy. From Wiki:

"Bush was inaugurated on January 20, 1989, succeeding Ronald Reagan. He entered office at a period of change in the world; the fall of the Berlin Wall and the collapse of Soviet Union came early in his presidency.[2] He ordered military operations in Panama and the Persian Gulf[2] and, at one point, was recorded as having a record-high approval rating of 89 percent.[46] However, economic recession and breaking his "no new taxes" pledge caused a sharp decline in his approval rating, and Bush was defeated in the 1992 election.[2]"

It's like F*ck Reading Comprehension Friday I see.

At least she makes a good point, "election is over, people spoke get on with it."

although one of the funniest things I remember from Bush Sr. being in office was SNL and Dana Carvey doing his bit giving a state of the union address:

"Babs....not afraid to die"

KrispyKritter		2012-11-16 09:48:52 PM

i don't buy that baby Bush was as gosh shucks stupid as he acted. there was YouTube of lil Bush showing a different face behind the podium in younger days. Sr and Jr were the epitome of willing stooge evil, gladly doing whatever their much more well heeled and more well financed friends and manipulators asked of them. they both belong in prison. they enabled wholesale ransacking of the big cash registers at the expense of the great unwashed. war crimes? you betcha. Hitler himself shook a tiny fist from the grave while muttering "well done!" in German or some such dialect.

Amanda: Huh? Becky, what's going on?
Becky: [whispered] Wednesday!
Wednesday: You have taken the land which is rightfully ours. Years from now my people will be forced to live in mobile homes on reservations. Your people will wear cardigans, and drink highballs. We will sell our bracelets by the road sides, you will play golf, and enjoy hot hors d'oeuvres. My people will have pain and degradation. Your people will have stick shifts. The gods of my tribe have spoken. They have said, "Do not trust the Pilgrims, especially Sarah Miller."

I actually got to meet Barbara Bush back when she was first lady. She was a class act then and it seems she still is.

When asked her opinion of Geraldine Ferraro, who was then the Democrat nominee for V.P., she replied "I can't say it, but it rhymes with witch."

She later gave a non-apology in which she smugly looked at the camera and said that she didn't mean to call Ms. Ferraro a witch. Get it? She was really calling her a biatch, and that was her coy way of acknowledging her original insult! How clever!

Class act, indeed.

Lots of luck on that, Babs.

Judging from the photo, she's turned into Bob Hope.

Oh, well. It's an improvement.

mscleo: Reporter misspelled 'trustafarian'.

You go girl, Ms. Cleo!

Made me laugh.

By the way, it's Laura Bush who is the Marley fan. The kids nowadays, you see, don't know the classical music and the jazz and the old timey blues and R&B, and country music like "country roads take me home, West Jaamaica, where I belong" (Yellow Man). They've got no historical perspective because they're all hopped up on goof balls and drinking that glowy stuff in glow sticks at their "raves" and the "hip-hops" and stuff. And above all, they don't eat enough yummy puddin'. EAT MORE PUDDIN' DAMMIT! Daddy needs a new Range Rover.

I keep telling all of you, the only thing separating liberals and conservatives is a few points, taxation and rational environmentalism.

Most consevatives are fiscally conservative and socially liberal, they want sound public plans not just throwing money at problems hoping it solves the issue. Now we just need to cut loose the religious right and the left needs to cut loose their crack pots, then we may get shiat fixed.

Wow, this is the second time I've agreed w/ steaming pile outside the sports tab,,,,,

The elder Bush couple is very much like John and Abigail Adams. Both are very smart, sharp-tongued, and aristocratic.

The Shrub is a far cry from John Quincy, though. Which is sad, because we could have used a good President from 2001 through 2008.

steamingpile: Wiki is wrong on this, the only reason bush lost the election is because of Perot, you don't take close to 20% of the vote and have zero effect. Congrats Perot hope you're happy, Clinton got to take credit for bush opening up the net to more commerce and riding a wave of money to cover up how bad he was as president.

Perot would only be happy if he'd won. And so would have been my mom, who was in her 30's and hadn't voted in her life. Yet his stance spoke to her to actually cast her ballot because, finally, there was a presidential candidate she could stomach. He lost, it pissed her off, and she hasn't voted since.

Typical conservative white wealthy stepford wife of the 1950's... not concerned about world affairs, politics women's issues...

FTA: "I'm tired now of the elections," Bush, who had endorsed Republican Mitt Romney, said at a forum on America's first ladies. "People spoke. Move on, get on with it. I want to do other things and not to be ugly."

Your husband was leader of the free world for four years and is still a respected statesman, you were privy to what happened in the most famous house in the world for 12 years, and all you can think about is your f*cking tea parties?

My favorite crap from her: "Why should we hear about body bags and deaths? It's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?" - said about the Iraq war while her son give Saddam Hussein his ultimatum.

Clueless old b*tch.

Did anyone notice that Skinink got his Bushes mixed up? George Herbert Walker "Poppy" Bush was totally Preppie through and through in spite of his adulthood raising a family in Texas.

Which left wing crackpots are running the country?

They aren't, neither are the religious nut bags running shiat when Repubs are in office, they just need to be shown how small their opinion is to most of us.

I said before the election, they need to tone down the religious angle, forget changing abortion, and let any humans marry or they will lose. A few relatives said I was carazy, obamer has shown how stupid he is! The right needs to loosen their religious grip, and let people just be free, its never another mans place to judge another person anyway.....

If Republicans actually succeeded in abolishing abortion, they would be finished. The issue mobilizes the base. If something substantial was to be done, it would have already happened. They NEED abortion to be legal.
