Reconciliation was in the air.

Bush and his wife, former first lady Laura Bush, had round-trip passage with Obama and first lady Michelle Obama for the service, an international "who's who" of current and former international political leaders.

I always felt Obama would turn to Bush when he got into trouble.

Too bad W wasn’t seated next to Michelle, both looking appropriately somber, as Obama took that ridiculous grinning selfie!

I honestly don’t see how Bush can stomach being around someone who has spent years trashing his 8 years in office. I just don’t get it. It’s one thing to have class and be polite but he and his Dad just take it too far.

I’m expecting to hear yet another swipe at GW from
dear leader in the near future because he will need
to soothe the hurt feelings of his turd friends on
the left or because he is a classless POS.... or both.

George and Laura were gracious and friendly, I would count on it. However, I wonder if Obama or Michele would even talk to them.

Can you not see that they are really birds of a feather?

They play different roles in the same play. But they’re all dedicated to the same outcome.

While obama is spending time with Bush, Bush is spending time with obama. IMO Bush is one big fraud.

Was that what I smell?

A long, over ocean airflight with the Mahdi and Fatelle. That would be a good time to make sure a copy of War and Peace and the King James Bible (the study edition) was handy in the carry on bag.

I have a pretty good idea of your condition. Thankfully, I am immune.
