And he has the fuzzy brass balls to call Maddow and Olbermann “sick puppies” while mentioning nobody else? What the fuck is wrong with this picture?
I know, right?
Thankfully .. KO called into Maddow’s show last night and pointed out just that … that Bush the Elder started it(meaning Lee Atwater and Roger Ailes) .. well Nixon really did .. and then came Poppy Bush
Struck me as a set up. He didn’t even pronounce her name correctly. And seemed in a fog until her reached back into his mind for the two names he’d been fed.
I don’t think this man is with us any more, if he ever was.
I suppose Maddow and Olbermann should be pleased with themselves, knowing they’re been effective enough to be called out by the old man. But, if they are “sick puppies,” what does that make Rush, Beck and Hannity? Mad dogs? LOL!
Not to mention O’Reilly, Savage and Colter and that thundering herd of nincompoops on the right. What a fantasy world old man bush resides in, one that exonerates him from his own lack of civility. Just ask Dukakis about this point.
Yes. Rabid dogs.
He’s the one prodding Jeb for a run to restore the family name. Jeb, ever the “good son” has to patronize the old man. Jeb and everyone else knows damn well W screwed it way past recovery and Jeb he blew his shot when he couldn’t beat Lawton Chiles in ’94.
I would just point out to Poppy that stores now have self service check out lines that you scan items yourself. This guy defined the term, “out of touch” in politics.
