Trust me he'll be fine.

A man of his status and deep pockets will get the utmost care at a hospital versus ordinary citizens such as you & I.

I never voted for him. But I did respect him, for his service to his country during war time, and for his long career in government service.

This is more than I could say for his son, George W.

You are forgetting Creek Dog, that everybody will now be getting Obamacare.

CreekDog:

Money aside, he will get the very best medical care because Houston has the very best collection of medical facilities in the world.

TrustVerify, post the source in which you quote came from.

everyone may not agree with his politics but he is a fine american who served his country before and after his time in the whitehouse. i wish him well

crickdog sounds like you are a little bitter. maybe if you got a job you could afford health insurance? oh wait a sec since your dear leader is giving everyone "free" health care you wont have to worry about working for it now.

He was imperfect, but one hell of a lot better than what we have now.

Whenever you preface an opinion with a "but", it negates your entire point. Should have learned that in school somewhere.

This anti-christ was the worst president of the united states!!! He is a diciple of the other anti-christ, Ronald Regan!!! I had a party with friends who shared with me a case of Crystal champagne when Regan died and Ihave two other cases waiting: one for Bush senior and Bush junior!!! I can't wait for them to die! It won't be soon enought.

I voted for him once but changed my mind when he ran for a second term... He was also a lot better than his son/sons... I feel that this country has had enough of the Bush family damage done to it...

Wishing President Bush a fast recovery... All in all he is a good man, can't say as much for George W...

Get that man some green chili: good for what ails ya, gives ya whatcha don't have!

How about a big SO WHAT!

The only intelligent republican president since Teddy Roosevelt.

Hang in there, Mr. President.

Rex-1306908: Obamacare is not any near as good as you think it is. I'm curious, since you hold Obamacare in such high regard, what exactly do you think it is and why do you like it so much?

Some of you are very sad people especially those who think he had something to do with President Kennedy's assassination. This is a man who served his country for his entire adult life. Have some respect.

GeorgeBush Sr. was once quoted as saying: "If the American peopleknew the Damage wehavedone to their Country, theywould hangusfrom the nearestlamppost."

Hello folks, can anybody supply the context for the above quote, as in the time place, and in reference to what event or events George H.W. Bush was speaking?

Trust Verify makes a great deal about it, and I find many references to it on the web, but always in isolation, with none of the where, when and whys, which might give the reader a chance to judge the words meaning.

Until I hear something more substantive, I regard those words, like most of the "facts" provided by the ironically named, Trust Verify with great skepticism.

Good day, folks.

Hello dman, it's all over the web, here's one instance of it.

American Reporter:

Yes!, George W. Bush is a Criminal, or at least he is the most willing puppet of a Criminal enterprise. The entire family is a criminal network with their hands in drug smuggling as well as other illegal practices for many years,... not to mention their recent ongoing War Crimes contrary to the Geneva Convention, as well as their crimes against the American Constitution and bill of rights. Also, The Grandfather of George W. Bush supported Hitler during world war II.

George Bush Sr. was once quoted as saying: "If the American people knew the Damage we have done to their Country, they would hang us from the nearest lamp post.

After being asked if it was Constitutional to declare war without approval from Congress, George W. Bush was quoted as saying: "Don't throw the Constitution in my face, it is just a God Damned piece of paper".

Although many Crooked politicians, Both Democrat and Republican, have robbed and pillaged the coffers of the United States in the past, the Bush family Cartel has done far more damage to the nation of America, and has drained more money from the American people then any other Administration in History.

And where did all those ill gotten gains go?,... you guessed it, In to their own pockets and in to the hands of all their business Associates and parters in crime.

Democrat? Republican? it does not really matter what they call themselves, all Criminals are cut from the same cloth, and are plainly two sides of the same coin. There is no great titanic battle between them, and there is No Dichotomy dividing the two Parties,... all a perpetrated hoax and Elections are decided way in advance by Corporate interests. As the Russian leader Stalin who was responsible for starving his own people with food shortages once said:

"It is Not the Votes that Count, it is he who counts the Votes"

The Crimes and mis-deeds of both American political parties can only be measured in small degrees of difference,... However, the Bush Family Regime is by far the worst atrocity because their actions exemplify so perfectly the words of Benito Mussolini just before World War II:

"Fascism should more properly be called Corporatism because it is the merger of State(Government) and Corporate power."

So many people I know have this cough/bronchitis thing going on right now...it's pretty bad up and down the east coast.

You libs are a pathetic bunch. HW fought in WWII and served this country for many years. It is a hell of a lot more than any one of you have done, or myself for that matter. I have respect for anyone that has done half of what he has.

This anti-christ was the worst president of the United States. He is a diciple of another anti-christ, Ronald Regan. When Regan died, I had a party with my friends and we drank an entire case of Crystal Champagne to celebrate. I have two other cases waiting for Bush senior and Bush junior. I can't wait for them to die! It could'n be fast enough! They will not be missed!

TrustVerify,

Did you know that Hitler, Stalin, and Mao were all Atheist which would mean you are the same as them for being an Atheist yourself. So does that mean you have genes that match theirs as ruthless killers of millions of people. If so you better check into a hospital now and get a straight jack on.

creekbit*h and t***v***y,

you are both what are considered the lowest of low. You both are PIG DI*KS

It is hard to believe that the people here who are still bashing the Sr. George Bush, cannot clear their brain, having compassion for a human being that is suffering.

It is unbelievable, that Politics still play a part your miserable comments. Wait till it is someone in your own family who is that sick. Do you love your parents?; wait til they are here no more. Sr. Bush may have Parkinson's, or had a Stroke. 88 years old, and others are very envious of the Status of one family--it shows by your miserable comments. "Get Over It". The bashing from miserable people will continue even if it Obama--

Or it could be YOU!---Life is fragile. Gain some wisdom.

Irish... "When people who are honestly mistaken learn the truth, they will either cease being mistaken or cease being honest." Unknown

Things aren't always what they seem. Look up Prescott Bush. Three generations of profiteers (as in war materiel).

Oh, and how about that "W"? Isn't he a card? Look up his military record (lotsa' luck).

TrustVerify,

I looked it up. I found lots of web references to it, but nothing, absolutely nothing about the context from with the quote was taken. When did he say it? Where did he say it? Who was he talking to when he said it? What did he say before that quote? What did he say after? What was the question that was asked of him?

The piece you have provided above in a quote does not appear to be objective. The quote has no context. It seems like it was cherry picked out of some speech or news piece to be used by someone with an agenda.

If he did make this statement, and I have no reason to believe he did or didn't, did he say it because he was alluding to some criminal act he participated in or did he say it because at the time he made the alleged statement he had the benefit of hindsight to evaluate and comment on a decision he and/or others either made or did not make.

I admit that the quote raises and eyebrow, but by itself, without any frame of reference, without any other details, it means very little.

Sam,

Obviously you can not see that I am talking about George HW. He was a WWII vet and one of the youngest aviators in the war. What does Prescot and W have to do with it? Here is one for you, since you dont want to talk about what I said, why dont you look at the way JFK won the election. His scum bag bootlegging old man had to meet with the Chicago mob to get him elected.

Lovegoes,
Why not unseal all of Obamas records as well? Thought so.

And I assume you have no respect for Obama or any other democrat since you dont have respect for thieves?

Hello dman, it's all over the web, here's one instance of it.

Trust Verify - I know I wrote my question in simple English; so I'm more than a little puzzled [but not surprised] by your response.

I did not say I could not find those words attributed, anonymously, to George H.W. Bush. I said I could find no documentation as to WHERE, WHEN and IN WHAT CONTEXT those words were uttered by our former President?

In response, you just parrot back the same quote:

George Bush Sr. was once quoted as saying: "If the American people knew the Damage we have done to their Country, they would hang us from the nearest lamp post.

I could honestly get as much from a talking bird.

Then you go on about the supposed NAZI sympathies of his father, while George H.W. was serving in combat, and the alleged, but totally undocumented [by you] drug smuggling activities of Bush in Central America.

You couldn't write a parking ticket with that evidence.

So... one more time:

CAN YOU TELL ME WHERE AND IN REFERENCE TO WHAT SUBJECT BUSH UTTERED THIS QUOTE?

That has to be clear enough for anybody.

Please, reaffirm my faith human intellect and don't come back like a parrot and say "He said it, bwaaak! He said it. I saw it on the internet! bwaaak!! Pretty bird!".

All that will get you is a cracker, a few snickers.

TrustVerify,

The snippet you posted says the same thing that all the others say:

George Bush Sr. was once quoted as saying

Where is the original statement? Where did the quote come from?

TrustVerify was once quoted as saying President George H W Bush was the greatest President in American history.

See how that works.

So JFK had the election "stolen" for him by his dad and the mafia, temporarily denying Nixon the position from which he would later have to resign in disgrace. And that was a crime large enough for George H.W. Bush to justify the CIA's Assassination of JFK. Which put LBJ in power to reverse the JFK decision not to escalate the Viet Nam conflict into a war. A war that benefitted the Bush's and their employers enormously financially. No smoking gun there, move along. By the way, if you are in the mafia, and you haven't been convicted of a felony, you are still allowed to vote.

Pauly,

Look it up pal. You are just another liberal douche bag that has his head up his ass. You ever hear the term "vote early and vote often"? The Chicago way......Daley Sr, Sam Giancana (sp?) and Tony Acardo met with Joe Kennedy and talked about how they would get Jack elected. And it has been said many times that the mob was most likely behind his assasination. Pick up a book that isnt written by a liberal, you might learn something.

And that was a crime large enough for George H.W. Bush to justify the CIA's Assassination of JFK.

Paul - JFK was assassinated in the autumn of 1963. George H.W. Bush became director of the CIA in 1976, a mere 12 years later.

Leaving aside you supposition that JFK would not have escalated the Vietnam War, when George H.W. gain access to a time machine to engineer the CIA assassination of Kennedy back 1963?

Facts. Why is it so many people are almost allergic to them?

Maybe, like too much salt, they give them high blood pressure.

Hey folks keep your ugly and vile comments to yourself. Bush the senoir was a true patriot, he put his himself in harms way like many from his generation in the line of fire during WWII and served his country with dignity and class. I am hoping that he is going to make a full recovery. You people are just pitiful. show some class even if you dont have any.

Look up Karl Rove and his "ORCA" OHIO vote stealing system in Tennessee. The Hacker group ANONYMOUS caught him dead to rights trying to steal the vote AGAIN in OHIO.

That's three presidential elections in a row that Rove is proveably guilty of fooling around with the vote count. But you don't care about that.

Either support a real investigation of the Bush Crime Syndicate and 9/11/2001, or be considered an accessory after the fact to mass murder, when we finally do arrive at the TRUTH.

Irish21, I have no respect for liars or theives, and I am neither a Repub. or a Democrat,

I am an Independant, who votes for the best candidate for whatever office they are running

for. I see you didn't address the fact that GW sealed all the Presidential records from the time

of his father? Could you get away with that, on your job? I doubt it. The fact that George H.W.

Bush served in the Military is no big deal. Most of the men in my family, besides those with disabilities,

or health issues, served during WWII. My own Father was a Fighter Pilot during WWII (Navy), and my

Uncles, cousins, and brothers were also Military. Millions of decent men have served in the Military, and

none of them asked for recognition. None of them made spectacles of themselves in their retirement,

jumpping out of aircraft on their Birthdays, yet several were with the 82nd Airborne, and accomplished

paratroopers... Old Mr. Bush never did anything heroic, but look out for himself, his connections around

the world and his bank account. I rest my case....

Get well soon President Bush.

A great American. Served his country well and Honorably. Get healthy sir.

That's three presidential elections in a row that Rove is proveably guilty of fooling around with the vote count. But you don't care about that.

Proven on the internet. I should be impressed. I'd be more impressed if you were not attributing the JFK assassination to the CIA under George H.W. Bush twelve years before he became the CIA director.

Exactly how much drivel do you think you can spout before people start regarding you as either a fool or a pathological liar, Paul?

@ comment #1.13: are you Dr. Paul at MUSC in Charleston?

Hello folks, remember the quote from H.W's. wife Barbara Bush during Hurricane Katrina?

Barbara Bush on Hurricane Katrina Refugees

By David Emery, About.com GuideSeptember 8, 2005

IT IS, without a doubt, the quote of the hour — a remark attributed to ex-first lady and mother-of-the-president Barbara Bush during a visit to the Hurricane Katrina refugee shelter in the Houston Astrodome:

"What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them."

John Q. Public (comment #1.43) The last line said, "You people are just pitiful. Show some class even if you don't have any."

You still have me laughing (of course, at the people you are commenting about). You comment here regularly. Surely you know this is the wrong place to find what you would like to see! [Examples: you can't teach a dog to sit at a table and eat with a fork and spoon, you can't teach a pig to stay out of the mud, you can't expect unrighteous ... to fulfill the righteous requirements of the law.]

They will prove it when I post this.

Prescott Bush and George H.W. Bush were instrumental in the formation of the CIA community, dman. George H.W. Bush only became the director of the CIA to keep the agency from cooperating with the Church Commission Investigation into the crimes the Bush's themselves had already committed. You don't have to believe me, but you ought to at least examine where the "information" you do believe is coming from. And since the "facts" are in dispute, if you are a good American, and not an accessory after the fact to murder, you should support a real investigation into anything and everything, including JFK's assassination, RFK's assassination, MLK's assassination, William Cooper's assassination, Oklahoma City, the WTC'93 attack, and 9/11/2001. If after all of that you still think it makes any sense to look into Benghazi, you are the one who is nuts.

I wish Bush the elder a speedy recovery. I've always like him, voted for him the first time until I switched to Clinton. I wish I could say the same for his spawn, but don't like Bush the younger at all, at least in office.

Hello dman, I usually don't do the research for those children that were left behind but I do on occasion do volunteer work for the mentally handicap so here you go!

"Sarah, "If the American people knew the Damage we have done to their Country, they would hang us from the nearest lamp post."

George Bush Senior speaking in an interview with
Sarah McClendon in December 1992

You do know how to Google don't you? You can go to The State Historical Society of Missouri and read the interview there. If you had an intelligent thought go through your head it would be the quickest trip in North America.

TrustVerify,

Your bigotry is evident. Being a Southerner does not mean I date my relatives. I am a married man of character, so I only date my wife. I have an honors degree in philosophy (emphasis on linguistic philosophy, particularly Wittgenstein) from a presitigious university. I have studied theology (2 yrs) in a master's program. I have practiced law for over 25 years. i am far more familiar with intellectual discourse than you apparently will ever become. The more significant point is that you have provided compelling evidence that you are a slave to stereotypical thought.

I've disagreed with Senior George Bush more than once. I've also agreed with him... he's the only Republican I can remember who called it honestly on the matter of supply-side: "voodoo economics". By and large I don't share much of his views on politics.

That said, I believe that he cares about this country. I respect him for his service. I hope he recovers and enjoys the rest of his life. He's earned it.

dman, google Bohemian grove.

Isn't it ironic that someone calling himself "TrustVerify" can't be trusted because he obviously DIDN'T VERIFY!!!

Here's his quote:

"If the American people knew the Damage we have done to their Country, they would hang us from the nearest lamp post."

Here's the REAL quote and context if you don't take in off the Democratic Underground or the Huffington Post:

"Sarah, if the American people ever find out what we have done, they will chase us down the streets and lynch us."

Notice just a slight change in the wording but the real outright LIE about this is adding the "to their country". That makes the context look much broader like maybe his entire term and everything he did as opposed to the REALITY that it was ONE issue and ONE incident. And people answered for it. What's the chances of this adolescent, moron Marxist currently in the White House answering for getting an Ambassador killed among other violations of the Constitution and the DAMAGE HE IS CAUSING TO THIS COUNTRY economically? (Oh, I forgot, EVERYTHING these childish idiots do is someone else's fault. That worked for me when I was 5 but sooner or later you HAVE to outgrow it. (Well, if you're not a LIBERAL you do.)

Here's the context, exact quote and my source:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A reader sent in the corrected quote. It appeared during a June 1992 interview with the late Sarah McClendon, the grand dame of the White House press corps at the time.

*************************************************

Sarah McClendon: "What will the people do if they ever find out the truth about Iraq-gate and Iran contra?

George H.W. Bush: "Sarah, if the American people ever find out what we have done, they will chase us down the streets and lynch us."

It's from:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now Mr. "TrustVerify", would you like to show us you have one last ounce of integrity and admit you [probably PURPOSELY] miss-quoted President Bush? I know, I know. ALL Liberals are "Integrity BANKRUPT". There's only TWO classes of Liberals; LITTLE and NO!!!

I don't wish him ill, but the truth is we all meet our creator eventually. Nothing that can be said here on earth makes a dam bit of difference. when he dies, Jesus will either send him to heaven with Gandhi and mother Teresa or arrange a luncheon meeting for him with Saddam and bin laden. I'll pray for his recovery and pray for his soul. why? you ask. cause that's what us tree hugging liberals do.

He seems to be a good and honorable man who was more interested in his country than in personal gain. There are many who hate him because he was something they were not; good and honorable.

trustverify follows the Alinsky plan to a T. I have no doubt people can find the quotes on the internet. It's a common tactic of the left: make up things and post them on the internet so others can quote you and seemingly, to the ignorant, come across as being intelligent. The thing is, it fails every time.

TrustVerify,

You keep posting snippets of a fictional interview. Instead of providing a source for a transcript, you just copy and paste what others have said. There are many citations concerning this quote in this interview, but not a single copy of the interview is to be found.

It is interesting that Sarah McClendon passed away in 2003 and the first mention of this "interview" didn't surface until 2005.

TrustVerify (I hate to refer to an idiot using those words) has 4 pages of websites to go get stuff from. The problem is that none of the sources are credible.

On top of that besides the quote they don't agree with each other much. Just shows you how the internet is not the best thing to happen to people.

At least he is telling us to do the research and find that he is full of fecal matter. He fails on the Verify part big time.

Hello dman, I usually don't do the research for those children that were left behind but I do on occasion do volunteer work for the mentally handicap so here you go!

"Sarah, "If the American people knew the Damage we have done to their Country, they would hang us from the nearest lamp post."

First off, the correct phrase would be "mentally handicapped". When you are attempting to insult an other person's intelligence, it helps if you can spell and use proper grammar. Punctuation also helps. They don't charge you for use of periods and commas.

Now to the substance of your latest post.

Actually, Trust Verify, the sensible arrangement is for those making claims of special knowledge to document where they derived such information. If I spent my time digging after the proof of your wild assertions, I wouldn't have time to sleep.

But, using the cookie crumb you provided, I was able to attain the quote in question. Bachmann54 notes, you did not even quote it correctly. However I note that his quote does not match mine, which makes me question the validity of the whole incident.

Here's what I see quoted (in http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3683253#3683415).

“George Bush, what will the people do if they ever find out the truth about Iraq-gate and Iran contra?

‘Sarah, if the American people ever find out what we have done [including the orchestration of September 11, the murder of JFK, Jr, the destruction of New Orleans and this Constitutional Republic], they will chase us down the streets and lynch us.'”

—From a June, 1992 exclusive and published interview granted by President George H. W. Bush to Sarah McClendon, the grand dame of the White House press corps at the time.

It seems highly unlikely that George H.W. Bush, who whatever else he may be, is not stupid, would publicly go on the record as having knowledge and/or involvement in such a litany of crimes [the orchestration of September 11, the murder of JFK, Jr, the destruction of New Orleans and this Constitutional Republic].

To do so, he would have to be more than stupid. He would have to be stark raving mad.

I suspect that the list of crimes is an interpolation by the person posting the purported quotation.

So, unless you can provide a link to the actual text of this interview, I'll continue to view it as a metaphorical statement taken out of context.

Notice I provided the link to where I found this quote. It really is not hard to do.

To all: If anybody has a link to the full text of the McClendon interview, please post it. They say that air and sunlight is the best disinfectant for corruption. The same may be true for paranoia and wing-nut conspiracy theories.

So if you have a link to the full, documented text, let the sun shine in.

Prescott Bush and George H.W. Bush were instrumental in the formation of the CIA community, dman.

Paul, the CIA was established in 1947 by an act of congress (the National Security Act of 1947). At that time, George H.W. Bush, recently discharged from the military, was at Yale. His father, Prescott Bush, was one of seven directors of the Union Banking Corporation. He ran for congress, but was not elected in 1952.

George H.W. went into business too, until 1964, when he ran for the Senate and won. At this time JFK was already dead for over a year.

So, just how were these two members of the Bush family involved in the JFK assassination?

It easy to make murky statements of assumed facts. It is quite another matter to actually substantiate your claims with facts connected by some semblance of a logical argument.

Great President! Great Man! Our prayers our with you Mr. President. Get well soon.

Gee, Creek Dog, you might want to give some thought to moving. I'd always had robust health but when the stuff hit the fan, it really hit.

I can not imagine how, in any way, I could have received better treatment from the moment the ER crew got hold of me 'til I was discharged. Unfortunately ~or fortunately~ depending on perspective, I had to be re-admitted a month later and ultimately had open heart surgery. Amazing, I was treated better the second time. I had not thought it was possible. I felt like the Queen of Bohemia.

If you want the absolute best treatment, go to an Order of St. Francis hospital. They heal bodies and spirits.

88 years old huh ? Well I guess his stay in hell is coming soon.... Have fun George....

Our politics differed but he is a respectful person

I wish him a speedy recovery.

(And Warthog, you are a pig...people who vent like you , and there are those on both extremes of the spectrum, are what is wrong in this country)

ANYONE who wishes a former President or any other elwcted official death and a life in hell is EXACTLY what I said they were.

I have absolutely no regret for having said that.

I am a Democrat, I did not vote for Bush 1 or Bush 2, I did not like their policies, but I respect their time spent serving our country

"for whom the the bell tolls"no man is an island........If you cannot respect the man in his life I think you should in his death. I do believe he and his Family has done some hanious crimes. I also believe in Karma. I know his family are experiencing that right now. I know because I just lost my father this year he was 81 he had been unfaithful to my mother and regreted it right till the end.One's last breath is as uncertain as one's birth was. My Empathy to the Bush Family the end is close. Luke 6:37 do not judge..........

falconer--not to mention his years of service to his country BEFORE becoming Potus.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

It almost reads as though this article doesn't have to be re-written too much in case George HW dies...just saying.

Agreed. Not only was he one of the youngest aviator back in WWII but he has also a compentent head of the CIA during his brief tenure. If one doesn't let blind partisanhip blind their judgement to the facts about the former president then you can see that is is a very different bird from the last three presidents we have had. An elite membor of the unofficial American aristoracy? Yes. But also a man that understood the concepts of civil service, something that all too few politicans today understand. One thing I also like about this former president was that unlike his successor, and some of his predecessors, he has stayed relatively quiet on the political sphere much like Truman, to pick a democratic example.

Margo - I thought the same thing. Hope it's a long ways away before that happens.

Yes, it did have a very obituary feel. Why didn't they mention his recent interest in awesomely colorful socks? ;-)

In any case, I wish him the very best of health, even though I'm a bleeding heart liberal who never voted for him. He was our President, and that commands our respect.

Noted, Margo @ #2.2

Here,Here, Kraig, My feelings exactly towards Jimmy Carter, coming from a righty. President Carter is a much better man than he was as POTUS. Jimmy let his actions speak louder than his words with Habitat for Humanity,and he was a helluva speech maker to boot! I wish Jimmy Carter the best of health and for President Bush a quick recovery.

All the above comments I agree with, Bush, Carter, noblest of intentions as POTUS. I'm afraid GB's skydiving days are behind him.

Many years ago I had the pleasure of meeting him before he was President. A nicer guy you wouldn't find.

Only superficially better.

lol.

Had to post it again didn't you Trust. The mas has done many great things in his life and he deserves all the respect we can give him.

Obama raised taxes after saying he wouldn't and look what the idiots of this country did with him, they gave him an undeserved second term to inflict much more damage.

I think President Bush was one of the best presidents this country ever had and if not for his hard work, Clinton would have never had such a good stay in office.

Get well Mr President and God Bless You.

Bringit - The only reason Bush was not elected to a second term was Ross Perot...check it out...

He wasn't voted back in because of the economy and his pledge not to raise taxes. He was excellent at foreign affairs, but not that good at domestic affairs. I really don't think he wanted a second term. During his last campaign, his heart never seemed really into it.

Great President, Great Govenor, and a Great Man of God. He & his family have done nothing but given the United States of America a Good Name. That name is to be chosen above Great Riches but God has Blessed them because of their Values and Service to Us as a Nation. Read the book about how they started making their journey of life and you will see that it was not handed to them on a Silver Platter. I was always proud of Both Bush Presidents and the Honor their wives brought to our country as First Ladies. Unfortunely Sr. Bush had to come in and clean up the mess Bill Clinton had looked the other way with all the women he could find to have an affair and never , never looked at mess in the east or even tried to negotitate with them to stop them in any way. I pray President and Mrs. Bush do well and Have A Blessed and Merry Christmas as I do to all those that make comments even those that make negtative comments. We need to be concerned about Mrs. Nancy Pelosi husband getting more than rich from the ethynol that he has the patent on that is destroying all our autos. Wonder how he got this, couldn't be that he had an inside tip, surely not. Have A Blessed Christmas to all.

A liberal wins the lottery and throws a party.

A conservative wins the lottery and complains that he has to pay taxes on it.

Fastdraw, Not to sure what your correlation here is, but a Liberal doesn't know what taxes are! A Liberal assumes that taxes are for someone else who has more $$ to pay so they can reap the benefit's of their labor! As you stated," a Liberal wins the lottery and throws a party"! And continues to pi$$ away his winnings until everything he has is in default to the IRS. Who'd be complaining then?

Yo, hairylimpprong,

You are now the pigdi*ck of the posters

Fastdraw, just a bit more color to your comparison. A liberal wins the lottery, throws a party and has his liberal friends hitting him up for money until the fortune is exhausted.

Get well soon Old man :)

JPfromGA --

The elder Bush (not a SR., BTW) was in office BEFORE Clinton, so he didn't "clean up" anything.

Not the only idea you have got a bit skewed in your post.

Hairynodong lost his prong.

JPfrom GA,

Great President, Great Govenor, and a Great Man of God.

He was never a governor.

Unfortunely Sr. Bush had to come in and clean up the mess Bill Clinton...

Actually, Sr. Bush tried to come in and clean up the mess Reagan made. He failed, of course, and lost the election because of the lousy economy he maintained.

Bill Clinton came in afterwards and presided over the strongest economy since WWII.

You're welcome.

Im giving that title to Ronald Reagan....and I can't really think of a decent Democrat president in recent history....libs want to help me out?

The last real republican President was Dwight D. Eisenhower. The rest have been CONmen.

Troy1101, Clinton and Obama have been very good. No good Republican Presidents unless you go back to Eisenhower. Nixon was ok because he resigned.

Absolutely right there Ross Marshall!! My best to Mr Bush and a speedy recovers.

Your right Troy, Reagan was a great Republican President. He would not have let the teabaggin, extreme right wing A-holes, hijack the party. He (as did GHW Bush) knew how to keep the boneheads quiet. Both knew how to keep the GOP an "inclusive" party, that represents ALL of the American people. Neither one of those Republican leaders would have dismissed 47% of the American people.

What happened to that real Republican party?

Get well GHW Bush.. you may be the last of a dying breed. (hopefully, not)

lol...the Clinton claim is laughable. Even his own wife can't possibly respect a pig like that man. The guy was literally getting his rocks off in the oval office with interns, among others no doubt....this is a bad man. I will give that to President Obama....at least he is repectable in that regard.

Eisenhower was plain and simple, a great man. Even if he never became President he would be more honorable than Clinton on his worst day. Sorry, but when the Commander in Chief can get his rocks off in the oval office and not get fired its a sad day in our nation.

The GOP of the Eisenhower era was surprisingly moderate:

"Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes that you can do these things. Among them are a few Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or businessman from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid."

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, l952

The last true small-government conservative was Herbert Hoover, noteworthy among the presidents as being the only technical professional - an engineer. Unfortunately, the Great Depression ushered in the era of FDR and unprecedented government growth. This growth has continued to this day, through both Republican and Democrat administration alike. Hence why the modern caste of big-government authoritarian Republicans are referred to as "Neoconservatives."

Troy: Too much time spent listening to limpballs. Clinton didn't get a blowjob from Monica, or anyone else, in the oval office. In your fact free world you must feel free to LIE in public and on paper. he did cheat on his wife, who you guys imply is a lesbian, with Monica in the White House, but not in the OVAL office, dumbass.

Decent man, decent president. The only horrific thing he ever did was to have children. The last good Republican president was Eisenhower... maybe. And Reagan??? Innocent by Alzheimer's... the "teflon" president was the only president to behave criminally while in office and get by with it because "gee whiz, if you tell me I was wrong, I guess I was wrong, I didn't mean to do anything wrong or illegal... nice acting or maybe he really couldn't tell right from wrong.... or remember from day to day.

Thank
you Shawn for nice comment about President Bush SR, gel well MR. President
we love you .

Mickey, yes he is the one, and his wife looking like George Washington is funny. LMAOROTF

and HWs wife is still better looking than ex-Prez Bill Clintons bag

got that right. wow, what a woman to travel as an american representative. nasty old thing

lol yesss! she's a two bagger!

What a bunch of jerks!

She actually looks more like the Quaker Oats guy . LOL

Still looks better than that thing in the white house now....At least Barbara did look some what like a woman, instead of the RuPaul that we call the 1st lady now.

Hey DemsAreHypocrites,i am a white guy who has white kids,but i have to say Michelle Obama is the best looking woman in the white house ever,except for maybe Jackie Kennedy.And i would have to say i would vote for Michelle if i had to choose.And if you think barbara looked like a woman,than i would have to say you are really blind and should apply for a handicap placard.

You have a problem with that Dave?

He's 88. Join the human race.

Bronchitis is debilitating to your lungs, no matter the age. When you age or are physically harmed in some way, your immune system tends to lower its defenses and your organs are forever scarred ... and you have to 'start from scratch' ... President Bush is 88 years old. His age and immune system have lowered considerably since he has been in and out of the hospital for bronchitis.

The very best of luck to you, Mr. Bush -- you are in the one of the most well known hospitals in the world, and I pray for the best recovery you can possibly attain to live out the rest of your days.

more like'' Anonymous communist''

lol because things are SOOOOO much better now....NOT!!

mariondanna, one word:

NIGHTSCHOOL!

everyone is entitled to their opinion, but without the brains behind it, no one has to listen to it.

Marion- It is spelled "sun" not son, frigging MORON. Obama should be in the federal pen on the grounds of 4 murdered Americans in Libya.

Marion, he asked why. You stated he is a criminal. Why is that? You have the right to an opinion, but be an adult and back it up.

Marion, you seem to be one the mindless minions that follow the pied piper. You do have the right to your opinion, as anyone. I too, have that right. Former President George H Bush is a man, something you may not be accustomed with. Hopefully, he'll recover fully and rejoin his wonderful wife, Barbara Bush.

We shall realize what wonderful leaders he and his son, President GW Bush were, when the pony show of the present administration takes the final bow from the big stage. As you stated, you have the right to your opinion. Back on point....speedy recovery President George H Bush.

Wow, Marion is a poster boy for special ed.

Pick and choose quite a bit don't you.........I see people wishing death on others and
flaming libs calling others idiots........And wishing the death of a formerpresident......Yet no actions taken...

Birds of a feather flock together, huh Tyler?

I guess as long as they're your ilk on the political side of things their comments can
fly....

Do your job without your bias liberal glasses......... Go ahead, delete me I don’t
need to be a part of the trash allowed on this disgusting site…I guess I could say; I feel the same as HarryLongProng about a current leader who has photos of wearing a turban all over the net.......

Lolz....

I hope him and his son drop dead,and we could start saving some more wastful spending.

WTF 101, what is your problem? Why so much hate? You people and your hate filled hearts with your hypocritical lives astound me.

Hey parratrooper,first of all im not a hater on the people who dont deserve to be hated on.Im just saying that would save tax payers over 3 1/2 million dollars a year if our tax dollars didnt have to provide lavish life style for our retired presidents.Secondly,i dont think you know the meaning of hypocritical.I dont think anyone who has been ripped off for many years,and then have to pay for there lavish life syles afterward for retiring,would make ANYONE happy for that person.
