ghw bush will almost certainly be next if not because of his failing health but because of a broken heart.
We all got after her when she said what she did after Katrina and refugees in the arena and also about not disturbing her beautiful mind, but at some point you have to give it up. Deathâs the great equalizer and all that stuff dies with her, but we shouldnât expect PP to say anything meaningful when she passes. Thatâs what the Obamas will do when the time comes.
OT but now we know why Mikey Pants fled the countryâŠ
You are kind. I wish her an easy passing, and comfort for her family.
That is about as nice as I can go.
Perfectly said, LGB.
It is so interesting to me, how the advent of Trump has softened my heart towards so many Repubs I used to despise. They just donât seem so bad when put up next to donnie and his minions.
Ha, ha, ha! He was afraid the âevilâ would be catching.
Mother Pence is afraid itâs a lifestyle choice that would appeal to MikeyâŠ
I bet she doesnât let him EVER wear pink.
Ever since she found his hidden stash of Judy Garland and Barbra Streisand CDâs, and the feather boaâŠ
âWhat Iâm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas.â
â Barbara Bush, commenting on the overwhelmingly black Hurricane Katrina ârefugeesâ
Babs will surely be remembered for her infamous âLet them eat cakeâ moment when she surveyed Hurricane Katrina evacuees, people who had lost everything and were now huddled inside the Houston Astrodome, and Mrs. Sensitivity pronounced â[S]o many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them.â But I will always remember her for her singular achievement as First Lady, her literacy program.
When a reporter asked the noted bibliophileâs aide what she liked to read, the aide was stumped and replied, âIâll have to get back to you.â Unlike modern-day Rethugliklan White House aides, however, her assistant actually did get back to the reporter with an answer: âAnything by Emily BrontĂ«,â she said. It surely inspired the nation to learn that the voracious reader Babs loved anything by an authoress who wrote exactly one book.
In short, the classless, notoriously gin-soaked world-class bitch Bush will not be missed.
This is true. Thatâs what I expect to happen.
I feel really bad for W - he has been particularly close to his mother.
Really? âBitchâ? You can disagree and despise all you want, but your entire take was negated by that comment.
Yes. âBitch.â Unlike Nancy Reagan sheâs too fat to be a crone.
Way to go high.
I appreciate that.
No, say it straight, YOU will not miss her because you think sheâs a bitch. Her familyâs hearts will be broken and itâs for them the living we can grieve.
The âGreatest Generationâ Republicans were generally not as awful as those who came after, at least if you didnât look behind the scenes. The old R Party completely fell apart when the wretched Tea Party came on the scene. It remains to be seen whether the Orange Dotard is a force for reforming the R party.
I didnât care for that, either.
Nor did I care for it when Bush herself said that she and her husband enjoyed their wealth, âânot like that four-million-dollar â I canât say it, but it rhymes with ârich.âââ
(She was talking about Geraldine Ferraro.)
probably one of my favorite first ladies. Iâll never forget when the two of them were being interviewed, and the journalist asked:
âDo you believe that abortion should be available in cases of rape?â
GHWB started hemming and hawing and she just grabbed his knee. He clamped his mouth shut, then just said, âyesâ
This sucks, and it sucks that that scab-souled orange tinted chickenhawk loon will be at all involved in the remembrance.
