Here is video of former President George H.W. Bush being asked by Larry King what he thinks of the “Tea Party.” Bush 41 said he wasn’t sure what to think about it:
“Well, I don’t know what it really is, Larry. Some of the ideas make a lot of sense. . . . I’m confused by it, frankly, but I think it’s alright.”

Still a bit confused about that “vision” thing. Good and decent man, though.
Well as an octo, he’s probably “confused” by a lot of things.
apparently his source for news is larry king, thats probably why he’s confused
How can he be “confused” by it? It is average Americans who work, pay taxes, raise families, mow their grass, AND WANT TO BE LEFT ALONE by the government. Perhaps he could have been a two-term President if he had spent more time listening to us instead of the CFR.
You beat me to it. My thoughts exactly.
He knows damn well what it’s about.
GHW Bush always saw himself as more sophisticated and nuanced than Ronald Reagan. Even now, he has no idea how small he appears in comparison.
Barbara probably slapped him on the back of the head later and told him what a dumb answer that was...”honestly, George!!”
A LOT of this “confuse” the Bushes - ALL of them.
We can thank them and McCain for the Marxist Muslim bastard in the White House.
There is only one Jimmy Carter and that is one too many
Read OUR lips, President Bush.
I’m not even going to go there..or anywhere near his confusion
Tea party to GHWB “Read my lips...no new taxes”
Guess he was confused about that back when too.
Of course as a BBCC Republican, he was "confused" by American Economic Freedom (AKA Capitalism)
It was referenced as "Trickle Down Economics" by Reagan and "Voodoo economics" by GHWB.
I don't understand them either because I'm not part of one so I'm with Bush...
I'm not happy with some of the folks on FR right now. This Bush bashing by FR folks is disturbing.
A great example of voodoo thinking.
Hey, Jorge! It is simple. See below. Don’t forget to take notes:
1. Keep government within strict Constitutional boundaries.
2. When in doubt, go for the more restrictive construction/interpretation of the Constitution.
3. Remember your one good insight - “If you support a terrorist, you are a terrorist”.
4. Islam is NOT a “Religion of Peace”. That is true no matter how many billions the Saudi’s invested through your family and ‘Yer Buds’.
This Bush has always been confused.
No need to be confused, it means we don’t want any of his RINO progeny (and the pro abortion Bush wives) to run the country anymore we can’t afford it. The Bush’s need to go away at this point.
