So Dubya Turned Out to be an Idiot After All- I Guess The Libs Were Right

Sorry I ever defended him and his corrupt clan...

Apparently the Bushes are in the same boat as the Clintons now, where they're SO deeply indebted to various donors they're not able to retire 
-even if they wanted to- then ride quietly off into the sunset just because the voters want nothing to do with them... 

These two boundlessly-greedy political dynasties will never go away unless shoved off the cliff- as this country is presently fixin to do.

Perhaps Dubya was hoping a Jeb! administration could salvage his own legacy, just like GWB himself aspired to finish his father's unfinished chores in Iraq and settle accounts in the Muddled East.

But for George W Bush to keep his mouth shut for over seven years while Obama tore this country to the ground, gutted the military, and turned us all against each-other (pretending to take the high road, when he actually seemed to just acquiesce to it all like Judge Roberts)...  
and NOW he's going to suddenly man-up and go after Ted Cruz?  

W was quoted as saying 'I just don't like the guy' at a recent fundraiser... WTF kind of infantile argument is that? 

Most intellectually-honest people find Cruz to be a charming,
highly-intelligent gentleman... perhaps it's the 'principled' part that rubs Bush the wrong way... or maybe it's the 'intelligent' he just can't (possibly) relate to.

Surely GWB is plenty frustrated since Trump leads all polls while humiliating Jeb!, Dubya, and Pops on a daily basis... and Cruz is running circles-around Jeb! in fundraising, appeal to the base, or what have you.

Now you see W lashing-out -like a LOSER- because the Bush 'team' are getting their asses kicked all-up-and-down-the-field. Well pardon my lack of professionalism but HA HA HA HA HA.

The voters have already made it abundantly clear via polls that the prospect of another Bush presidency is about as popular as the Bubonic Plague. 

Bad-mouthing the guys that are beating you -while 97% of the country thoroughly rejects what you've got on offer- reeks of loser... 
which is all that Jeb! -and George W Bush- have turned out to be.

As for W's tattered legacy, I still don't think going to Iraq was the worst thing he ever did... initial occupation was bungled, but he won in the end. Obama's the one who recklessly abandoned all gains there in what the US military still unofficially refers to as 'The Great Bug Out'. 

But it's all the rest with George W Bush I got a problem with: spending way too much money, expanding government, setting-up the coming Obama regime with a powerful presidency and domestic spying apparatus... then mismanaging/damaging the GOP brand so deeply that's it's become an
all-but-irrelevant 'force' in US politics for almost a decade now. 

We conservatives could do little but sit-back and watch Obama's
ongoing date-rape of this country proceed utterly undeterred by Republicans ashamed to be Republicans -because the long shadow of 8 years of Bush incompetence completely demoralized them. 

Despite a massive TEA Party resistance movement that provided Republicans a congressional majority -and a reason for being- we've still just been
limping-along with a rudderless GOP leadership that never seemed to have any idea how to emerge from the ashes of the failed Bush presidency.

So as patriots now still attempt to pull the Republican Party out of the deep, muddy ditch W drove us in-to, we really don't need this failed, irrelevant bozo bad-mouthing far better men than himself, those who WE THE PEOPLE now choose to lead us.

George W Bush is a corrupt GOPe tool who left the Republican Party in ruins... his legacy will be one of a LOSER, little better than Jimmy Carter.
And conservatives sure won't be working to burnish his record now that he's made the indelible point 'he ain't one of us'.

I don't care how many returning troops he meets at the airport, screw
George W Bush and the whole rotten Bush family. PLEASE go-away Dubya, Jeb!, and all the rest of you... and don't forget to take your scumbag Architect with you.

This is getting crazy. In the past 24hrs, the presidential campaign became about George W. Bush.

LITTLE JEBBIE TURD SANDWICH

[grania]

In the past 24 hours the campaign has become about GWB

The despised Jeb should've been out of the race by now. Perhaps the only way to get him out of the race is to destroy the reputation of the dynasty.

Three stinking posts on this topic so far.

I repeat:

There is no video and no other donors came forward with that story.

Incredible claims require incredible proof.

And George W. Bush doesn’t usually say anything negative about anybody.

[JoeDetweiler]

Seems to me, in politics, saying “I just don’t like the guy” is practically a kiss on the cheek. I don’t know why anyone is getting even a little bit excited about this. I mean, Geez Louise, maybe he just doesn’t like the guy ;-)

Jeb and his people thought having a bucket load of money would insure his candidacy.
Most out here could care less how much money little Jebby has,
I will NEVER again vote for a non-conservative and No Bush is conservative.

[Reaganite Republican]

I don’t see how any of this would be an ‘incredible’ claim

It’s the same way Rove, Fox, and other Bush Family Inc hacks have always felt about Cruz... hardly surprising, rather I would say ‘to be expected’

But classless to say... if W did indeed say it (I believe the story, obviously)

[Dagnabitt]

I repeat...

Yes you do.

[Reaganite Republican]

What’s not to like about Cruz, if you’re just another good-faith Republican?

Obviously the Bushes feel Cruz is taking something that is theirs... when that sense of entitlement is the whole problem

[Dagnabitt]

Hopefully after Jeb quits the race, the whole awful family will move to the country of their loyalties, Mexico. They can open a souvenir stand, selling straw hats, pinatas, and W’s paintings of clowns and puppies.

“What’s not to like about Cruz...”

I’m a Cruz supporter, all the way. But I can’t get excited about this. Bush didn’t take out a full page ad in the New York Times. He just made a comment at a party. Best ignored. Like most comments made at parties.

[Reaganite Republican]

Superb~ lol

[Reaganite Republican]

But you know that’s how he, Rove, and all the Bush bunch think... Fox News kind of gave up but they tried to keep him down for a long time.

The Bushes are behind most of the anti Cruz stories and attacks you see, imho

GWB is ungrateful too. Cruz was part of his ballot security team in 2000. And look how the Bushes turned against Katherine Harris in FL (helped to make her into an unsavory villain) though she had helped make GWB president by standing up firmly to the leftists in the FL secretary of state office in Tallahassee. Remember too how GHWB refused to attend Lee Atwater’s funeral: went sailing in late March instead. GHWB thought being tainted with Atwater’s controversial image would hurt the reelection campaign in 1992. But Atwater make the 1988 victory possible; or we would have had Kitty’s second husband.

McCain ran against Bush in 2008...and not against Obama...and lost. Mitt ran against Bush in 2012, not against Obama, and lost. Yesterday Trump started to run against W Bush with his 9-11 comments. He will lose too if he keeps that up.

I pretty much agree with the OP’s assessment of the Bush family, but if W Bush is seen as to blame for 9-11 and the economic crash, no Republican, ZIP ZERO NADA, will ever sit in the Oval again.

Barbara Bush also makes snide remarks about a much liked and supported Tea Party favorite!
