George W. Bush : As of this week, he's dead to me

parabellumGeorge W. Bush : As of this week, he's dead to me
He's sticking his mug into a lot of cameras this week and after his remarks about President Trump, after not saying a word against the worst POTUS any of us will see in our lifetime, he's dead to me. I don't want to see his face. I don't want to hear his voice. I don't want to read his words. I don't want to hear anyone else convey the man's ideas.
I know we have a thread going on this and my remarks are redundant, but...
There's one and only one reason why you became President, George, and that's because of your daddy. I am of the opinion that your father is vastly underrated by history thus far. I think he was a fine President. Were it not for your father, you would have been remembered ever so vaguely as the President's kid, and the owner of a baseball team, and that's all.
From the heart. I couldn't be more sincere when I say that I don't ever again want to see you.

parabellumLet's not kid ourselves- GWB was better than Al Gore. I think we would likely find no disagreement with this in the forum.

Yeah don't be ashamed of the votes you made at the time. You think you should have voted for the other guys?

I wholeheartedly agree, he has pissed away all of my respect for him. Such a shame. Goes to show that he is just another establishment turd.

BMRI voted for him both times as he was many times a better choice than Algore or Kerry, but he was dead to me when he tried to fulfill his neocon vision of democratizing Afghanistan and Iraq. He also totally lost me when he called The Minutemen at our southern border "vigilantes" and refused to pardon the Border Patrol agents who shot the illegal invader scumbag and went to prison for it.

This is so true. And then Obama begot Trump.
These swamp dwelling elitist's just don't get that the American people do not want what either party is selling.

DrDanAgreed. As Trump succeeds and the Bushes whine, they are doing more damage to their family's legacy than anything else I can think of.
A thought crossed my mind: how often have we seen a parent become successful, only to turn their success over to the children or grandchildren, who then squander and run it into the ground?

oddballThe Bushes have burnt every bridge to me.
Their actions, or lack of actions during the 2016 Presidential campaign dismayed and then angered me. They have proven to side with elitists such as the Clintons and now the Obamas.
Screw them.

I concur.
As for GWB? *sigh* Love/hate.

It is, unfortunately, quite real.
