Barbara Bush has died at the age of 92.
Mrs. Bush was a WYSIWYG person. Sometimes her pronouncements were a bit acerbic, but I gather that everyone around her knew where they stood with her.
Mrs/ Bush was a proponent of literacy, education, and civil rights, which means that she wasn't much of a Republican, as the party now defines itself.
A blog by a "sucker" and a "loser" who served her country in the Navy.
If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

COMMENT MODERATION IS IN EFFECT UFN. This means that if you are an insulting dick, nobody will ever see it.
"Mrs/ Bush was a proponent of literacy, education, and civil rights, which means that she wasn't much of a Republican, as the party now defines itself."
ReplyDeleteAnd that, right there, is a cheap statement. And a lie. More like how YOU define it.
As you've said to me, You are better than that.
Methinks thou doest protest too much.

Touched a nerve, eh B? I've got a feeling she just listed the parts of the current GOP platform of which you're most ashamed.
ReplyDeleteNice BMQ. I tutor illiterate adults monthly along with a bunch of other "Conservatives"...am all for Civil Rights, (part of the whole having a Mexican heritage...)
ReplyDeleteHow would you folks protest outright lies and mischaracterizations? I'm open to suggestions as to how to refute that are acceptable to you.
"How would you folks protest outright lies and mischaracterizations?"
ReplyDeleteYou mean how do we, and how have we since, oh, say, 1996 when Newt Gingrich published his list of invective that Republicans were to use toward Democrats whenever they were within shouting distance of a microphone or reporter with a notepad?
Mostly by denying it and being ignored, in between being referred to as "traitors", "fifth columnists" and "communist-loving surrender monkeys" if I remember correctly.
I'm not much of a Barbara Bush fan, honestly. I kinda had a hard time listening to her after that time on GMA in '03 when she stuck up for W censoring images of flag-draped coffins arriving from Iraq by saying:
‘Why should we hear about body bags and deaths? It’s not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?’
