Bush Sr’s dog Ranger got so fat in 1992 that he put out this memo.
Dogs can make anyone sort of likeable
It’s true, although I’ll say Bush 41 was far more tolerable than either Republican president who came before or after him. His policies were still Republican bullshit, but he was neither batshit crazy nor stupid.
I’ll also point out here that we recently had a president with no pets at all, and let you draw your own conclusions.
There was also that whole bombing of Iraq part 1
Guess the asshole part of that depends on whether you’re a Kuwaiti or Republican Guard…
G. W.'s round 2 (electric boogaloo) version was an entirely different exercise in absurdity. Bush 41’s war was not really comparable.
Driving the Iraqi Army out of Kuwait was ok. Bombing half of Iraq’s infrastructure afterwards was unnecessary.
Really?
Thank you so much. That is fascinating.
What a cute souvenir from a devious, power-mad war criminal
Was he a power mad war criminal? I thought that was bush jr.
I was only 6 in '92 so I wouldn’t know.
Yea, he was pretty crazy. Soft introduction that has harmed literally every American, he’s the direct reason Clarence Thomas is on the supreme Court, which has been an absolute disaster for the past 30 years in terms of all civil rights.
To get into war in Iraq, Bush Sr. repeated stories over and over, that were complete fabrications, about Iraqi soldiers stabbing Kuwaiti babies told by the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the us, and funded by an American pr firm.
What I’m mainly referring to is him overseeing operation Condor, the South American operation that replaced any leader in South America not loyal to the United States with us loyalists, through outright assassination or fomenting false us- trained and funded “revolutionary” groups in the region to assassinate those democratically appointed leaders.
He’s responsible for the Iran Contra and Vietnam atrocities, it just keeps going on.
And that’s really the tip of the iceberg.
Wow, I see now where bush jr. Got it from. Starts to make a little more sense.
That family and their legacy of wrecking human lives is gargantuan and monstrous.
Prescott bush, Bush Srs father, publicly did business with the corporations that funded the nazis until 1942, 4 years into the dirty right is clean war, and after he was caught and his businesses were seized, privately did business with the Nazi backers for another decade.
I wish someone would call me a blimp
