I go even further. I think the plan came first.

The wife and kid(s) came later.

>>The GOPe bench is getting pretty thin <<

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Not at all!

Jim Jordan would be an OUTSTANDING nominee in 2024, to continue Trump legacy.

So would many others in Freedom Caucus.

I worry that Pence lacks the charisma to pull it off, or the teeth to fight back against the liberal media.

IT WILL TAKE ANOTHER FIGHTER!

I still think Cruz could grow into it in the next 7 years. HE IS STRONG ENOUGH. He needs to get SOLIDLY on the TRUMP train ... needs to give an all-out endorsement to Trump—EARLY AND OFTEN in 2020.

::I cannot express enough how the mighty Bush family has destroyed itself from my perspective.::

You’re certainly not alone. We should form a club of former GWB supporters.

Remember how passionate we were protesting in Westwood the vote recount of 2001? Can’t go back but it meant everything to us at that time! Shame on GWB! To my knowledge, there isn’t a place to voice our opinion to him - the library/museum doesn’t take emails.. I tried when I had heard originally he wasn’t going to attend the 2017 inauguration...Suppose I could write a letter but really don’t feel like wasting my time!

When I went and supported Bush after the election, it was knowing I hadn’t even voted for him. I voted for Buchanan.

I did not want to see Gore steal the election. I went out there to make it clear we weren’t going to stand by and watch the Clinton/Gore machine roll over everyone in Florida.

I wasn’t there so much for Bush, but that was inevitably what was going on.

My thought to this day is that it was pitiful that Bush couldn’t beat Gore by a larger margin.

I found it pitiful that he couldn’t beat Lurch by more. I did vote for him that time.

I remember the picture but not the occasion. GWB couldn’t have looked more the doofus than in that picture.

BTW - why was he smirking on Saturday night at that TX fund raiser? He looked like he was waiting for obozo or Clinton to join him in whatever humor he saw but they weren’t biting. I’ll have to go back and watch that again as it could have been when they were listening to the president - not sure.

I wouldn’t give a penny to any organization that Bush and Clinton were involved with and why wouldn’t GWB just bow out when he must know the boondoggle Clinton made out of Haiti fund raising. POX on the lot of them! All together, they could just put up their own money. Did any one of them put up as much as President Trump did? A MILLION dollars???? Drain the coffers at all their foundations and fund the recovery!

Well put. I remember the motorists and strollers-by gave us their support. Some even found parking places and walked back to the corner to join the protest...

“”Skin color is not seen as the most important thing about a person.””

I think you meant “NOW” seen, right?

I lost the thread the other day when you mentioned that as a young gal, you attended the “goings on” in Hollywood and environs and witnessed a lot of the happenings! Would love to know more - FReepmail me if you don’t want others to know. I promise, I won’t tell. Really, it just sounded fascinating..

My dad hated Poppy Bush since his New World Order speech.

I think he as told to throw the 92 election as he showed so little effort and ran such a vicious campaign against Buchanan who would have been true to Reagan’s values and whooped BJ Clinton.

I think this short but colossal whopper also played a big role in Old Bush's downfall:

       "Read my lips...No new taxes!"

Honestly, I wasn’t as in tune with globalism back then as I am today, but those words were shocking to hear. I remember my reaction as if it was yesterday. It was very strong, negative.

I think so too, but I’d hate to think that was all.

The media played it up, and too many on the Right bought into it. Was it terribly misguided? Why sure it was.

Still, you don’t vote in the likes of Clinton to get even.

Yes, I'm sure there were many other factors involved in Bush's defeat, but I do know that Clinton beat that "Read My Lips..." theme like a drum, and I think that was very effective for him.   He even used "Read My Lips" to cast doubt on other promises that came out of the lips of Bush, unrelated to taxes.   Remember these ads?

Clinton's "Read My Lips" Ad 1

Clinton's "Read My Lips" Ad 2

I know he did. What surprised me was how many Conservatives swore off Because of it. Look, I think Bush was wrong to do it.

Once I studied up on Clinton, there’s no way I would pass up voting against him.

Thanks for the links. I don’t remember these specifically. I do remember the quote, and how it was used over and over.
