Sarah Sanders Hits Back at Laura Bush Over Criticism of Border Policy

Press Secretary Sarah Sanders fired both barrels at former first lady Laura Bush during Monday’s White House press briefing. Sanders was asked about an op-ed Bush wrote for the far-left Washington Post, where she compared the necessary and moral separation of migrant children from their illegal alien parents to the Japanese American internment camps built by Democrat president and icon Franklin Roosevelt. Sanders held nothing back in pointing out Bush’s hypocrisy. And, frankly, this law was actually signed into effect in 2008 under her husband’s leadership, not under this administration,” she added. “We’re not the one’s responsible for creating this problem; we’ve inherited it. But we’re actually the first administration stepping up and trying to fix it.”

Yep, Laura never should have said it.

Oh... RATS. I wish I had thought of that one! :-) :-)

Bush is never upset with unborn children being separated from life.

I think that much of the steam would go out of the current fake news about this Border Policy, which was the product of the Bush administration, if the taxpayers were reminded hourly that each of these children are costing our country a reported $35,000 a year. How many legal American citizens have that much money to spend on each of their own children? Why is the American taxpayer being forced to support the leftist liberal generosity to uninvited, illegal, non Americans from around the globe? So far as I can see, the main advocates currently being featured by the biased media all live in gated environments and the last thing on their minds is sharing their comfortable lives with those they want to force on the rest of US citizens.

The globalist/loser bush family should stfu and sit around their estate counting their ill-gotten money. They should consider supporting their President. What smug losers.

I remember a time when anything disparaging about W or Laura was tantamount to blasphemy in this forum.

Except “they” believe that PDJT probably issued an EO to make this happen. Hard copies of contrary evidence mean nothing to them.

I was kicked off another site because I quoted W after he gave a speech in Pennsylvania espousing the identical views of Bill Clinton on “equality for all.” LOL I was supportive of W when he was in the White House. And I found no reason to disparage Laura Bush except for her support of abortion.

Laura deserved the bitch slap. Stfu. She had no problems when her husband signed it, or when it was law under her buddy Obama.

From 2000-2004, most of us were just glad President Al Gore wasn’t in charge. By 2006, GWB was a huge embarrassment to conservatives.

But choices are limited. John Kerry in 2004? THAT would have sucked! I voted for Sarah Palin in 2008, viewing McCain as slightly better than Obama. The more we got to know Obama, the more repulsive he was. But...Mitt in 2012? Yeah, I voted for him and wanted him to win, but ONLY because Obama sucked so bad!

We finally got a real choice in 2016. And most senior Republicans from the last 30 years are PISSED that Jeb wasn’t the nominee!

As for Laura...pretty woman. Usually discrete enough in public. But I’d bet a ton of money she was pushing liberalism in the White House every chance she got.

“After more than eight years of silence on the controversial issues, Mrs. Bush said in an interview with CNN’s Larry KingTuesday, that gay marriage and abortion were points of contention with her husband, former President George W. Bush...The ex-first lady also told King she believes abortion should remain legal, an opinion she suggested she held on the President Bush’s first day in office in 2001. “

The Bush compound would make a great home for dozens of illegal immigrant children. How about it Laura?

W Bush needs to keep his wife in her place.

And don’t forget, she and her spoiled brat daughters campaigned and voted for Hillary, as did her father in law.

“I remember a time when anything disparaging about W or Laura was tantamount to blasphemy in this forum.”

It was hard to imagine how bad it would have been under Gore, or Kerry but if we would have had one of them we wouldn’t have had Obama. The sad part is the next one would have likely been McCain.

What the Left is doing is encouraging Trump to break the law as Obama did.

The problem is that these same people want to impeach Trump on any crime at all, from jay walking to murder. Violating immigration laws is just what the Left wants to remove Trump from office. This is an obvious trap.

Agree.
My first thought was how hypocritical from her. She supports abortion, and that’s “no problem”. Kill the baby, OK, but the pictures of children, oh the tragedy.

Any chance that family has to trash Trump, one of them will speak out.
They are establishment through and through, and the establishment doesn’t like the disruption to their control.

Remember too, that Laura Bush was the one pushing Harriet Miers. What a choice!
