I don't know about this. It's kind of sacred ground and seeing that W. was president at the time of 9/11.

A lot of People remember his speech there with great tenderness, could possibly pull some voters for Jeb.
To: McGruff
I have a fair amount of respect for the senior Bush,at least *some* for W but absolutely none for Juan Ellis.
To: McGruff
I don’t think too many people accuse the Bush family of being sound thinkers. It would seem to be a poor choice for the eve of the anniversary.
There are so many other times to do it. It just seems kind of thoughtless.
Maybe I’m being too thin skinned.

I don’t like the fundraiser part of this. It is like having a fundraising picnic at Arlington Cemetery. You don’t use the dead to raise funds for anything.

To use the tragedy 9/11 to raise money for a political fund raiser strikes me as inappropriate or worse.

Go away, and paint your paintings. Those at least have a degree of charm and authenticity, neither of which your Baby Huey brother ever had or ever will.
You were tried and found wanting. Leave the spotlight with whatever remains to you of public regard.

Agreed, and for familial aggrandizement, on a disaster that happened due to unpreparedness on his watch.

Will W reiterate his belief that Islam is a religion of peace?
This is just offensive....doing this fundraiser here, on that date.

Jeb Hears you.
And I hear you.
And soon Mom and Dad will hear you.
And then George Jr will hear you.
And then his son will hear you.
And George begat George and Jeb.
And George begat daughters while Jeb begat suitable dynastic heirs.
And their sons and daughters begat chiefs, and kings, and queens.
