In reply to the discussion: How long are the media planning on slobbering on about George Herbert Walker Bush? [View all]lark
(26,081 posts)35. I don't know how long, but I'm not watching until it stops.
For fucks sake, he is no saint, hurt America by ensuring the hostages stayed locked up by Iraq for extra time to help Raygun and hurt Carter who probably would have won if he could have brought them home. He also encouraged Iran to invade Kuwait so he could invade Iran and be a war president. He is good only in comparison to a totally stupid, venal, corrupt, traitor who was put in place by a foreign country to hurt America and help Russia. Yes, he was better than his son, but that too is extremely faint praise, since his son is in the top 5 (maybe top 3) all time worst presidents.
