Former President George H.W. Bush To Formally Endorse Romney

Former President George H. W. Bush will formally endorse Mitt Romney on Thursday in Houston, Texas.
The endorsement comes a week after the former president’s son, Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) endorsed Romney. Former first lady Barbara Bush has also endorsed Romney.
In December of 2011 the elder President Bush indicated support for Romney, saying that “Romney is the best choice for us.”
The endorsements by most members of the Bush family suggest mainstream Republican heavyweights want the Republican primary to effectively end and for the party to rally around Romney.
In his endorsement, Gov. Bush urged the party to “unite” around Romney.
“Primary elections have been held in 34 states, and now is the time for Republicans to unite behind Gov. Romney and take our message of fiscal conservatism and job creation to all voters this fall,” the Florida governor said in his endorsement.

Romney is the ObamaCare “Back-up Plan” for when the court eviscerates it first time around

I’m curious if GHWB still maintains a cheap rent apt in Houston to pretend he’s from Texas?!
To: 2ndDivisionVet
So...If Romney wins, that’ll make him Bush 5.0?

Exactly...maybe there are many that forget about the Rio Accord, Agenda 21 and sustainable development, all initiated by Bush in 1992, or that he is an illuminati kingpin tied to the 13 bloodlines. For Bush to endorse Mitt means that Mitt will endorse the NWO.

Thanks for the research, Hostage. And wasn’t GHWB condescending toward Richard Allen? GHWB is always gushing over Democrats though. I think he regrets not having become a Democrat in the 1950s.

I don’t know, but I thought he had a mansion in the Bellaire section of Houston and stayed thre during the winter, but in ME of course in the summer. Republican primary voters were easily hoodwinked by GHWB.

I voted for GHWB, GWB, and McPain, and regret all of those votes, but there were no real alternatives. The uninformed Republican primary voters keep performing these horrors.

Don’t know how GWHB was to Allen. Allen says he pushed GWHB because of his foreign policy experience that he thought RR was weak on. GWHB had been the CIA Director.

How stupid. Enjoy your choice between liberal Slick Willard and Commie Obammie, then. G. H. W. Bush would be fine with either of them, too.

How stupid!
Santorum is no different than Romney as they both are liberal wishy washy squirrel baits.
Any chance we had for a true conservative was dashed early on by the Republican establishment and the Palinbots.

If you think that, you haven't been paying attention.

I not only have been paying attention, I have been doing so sober.
Your Paulbot tactics are really going a long way toward convincing people to vote for hoodie-vest boy.

As I said, you haven't been paying attention. If you had been, you'd know that the Paulbots are out to get Santorum and have been mostly silent on Romney.
Yawn. Your ignorance has become tiresome.

Come back sober and try again.
As it stands now there is less of a chance than ever before that I’ll back your loser.
