“And whom did WaPo endorse in 1992?”

Unh, Ross Perot?

Nope, wasn’t him. But more than anybody, Perot got Slick elected on a plurality.

EVERY vote that Perot got, was taken directly from George H.W. Bush.

41 really should have invited Ross Perot to that family gathering years earlier. Perot was still a little torqued up because he believed the Reagan Administration, and Bush in particular, had been concealing the presence of American soldiers still being held in Vietnam years after the conflict there had ended.

Perot would get a notion in his head, it was a little hard to talk him down from it.

A re-write of history - what if Perot had NOT been in the 1992 race? Bill Clinton would have been an asterisk in history.

Yep.
Bend over and grab the ankles.
Just like George.

It is really laughable to watch these stooges spin. Just like with McLame, when it mattered these two were evil incarnate. When they’re dead they are used as props to attack Trump.

I clearly remember how the Democrats trashed George HW Bush in the 92 election. He was characterized as an out of touch, wealthy white man who reneged on raising taxes. I even seen where they are now claiming it was Bush who did the “right thing” by going into Kuwait and by doing so, exorcised the demons of Vietnam. That’s funny, the Democrats were crying “no blood for oil” during Desert Shield.

Just like they trashed McCain during the 08 and now revere him, they are doing the same with Bush.

Exactly. However nice of a guy Bush was—whether as a human being or help-mate to the Left, that’s not how he was treated by them at the time.

Comments by 2 vile and immmoral democrat ex presidents are not worthy of repetition. Their words were trivial and saccharine. President Trump’s eulogy to the Sr. Bush was heartfelt, generous, and poignant.
Of course 60 minutes last night made much of the 2 despots and the son’s words, but not a breath of acknowledgement that President Trump spoke a word of praise for the elder Bush. How dare CBS and the louts in the MSM raise their heads from their shame.

It proves once again Rush Limbaugh’s statement that to the MSM, the only good Republican is a dead Republican. It’s the only time they love them!
