I will give him that.
I thought that at the time, and still do.
Am I a big fan of him. Hell no.
His One World Odor comments made my jaw drop to the floor the second I heard it.
There was something really strange going on during the campaign in 1992 also. He just phoned it in. This was another moment when my jaw dropped to the floor.
I have never come up with a decent explanation for his actions during the Presidential bid in 1992.
Actions? What actions? Inactions maybe...
My fundamental problem with GHWB was that he had run the CIA, which uses rather unconstitutional methods to supposedly support American interests. I thought it was, I don’t know, weird, I guess, for him to then be Commander in Chief — directly representing our constitutional interests.
Then, of course, there was “No New Taxes,” “New World Order,” and barfing in the Japanese PM’s lap.
I suppose I would have preferred his re-election to the election of Slick Willie, but fundamentally I consider the Bush family to be part of the Uniparty that I hope and pray Trump is truly opposing.
