... the man who gave us David Souter....

Okay, but he also gave us Clarence Thomas. Call it even.

At it wasn’t even his campaign that was responsible....It was a separate outside the campaign PAC type org that put it out.

The Ad didn’t come from Bush’s Campaign, it came from a PAC.

The Ad the Bush Campaign put out showed a revolving door of Criminals and never mentioned Willie Horton by name.

Willie Horton

Dukakis was directly responsible for Horton's release -- as well as the release of hundreds of other murderers, many of whom went on to commit similarly heinous crimes. Even Dukakis' own Democratic legislature in liberal Massachusetts had tried to reverse a state Supreme Court decision granting furloughs to first-degree murderers.

But the Greek homunculus vetoed the bill.

Great, Classic Ann.

Throw it in their face.

Make them own it.

But the PAC ad showed Willie’s picture, so that made the ad, GHWB, the Republican party and anyone who voted for GHWB RACIST.

There are good reasons why Bush Sr. was a one-term president. There can be no doubt he was a stellar husband and father but I’ll take the POTUS we have now any day of the week. It would be wonderful if the media would learn to be kinder to the living and not simply the dead. The bile and snobbery has gotten out of control.
