From the Larry King interview with George and Laura Bush:


George Bush's wife Laura has revealed for the first time how some of Barack Obama's criticism of her husband had hurt her

The First Lady and Mr Bush were being interviewed on the Larry King Live show on CNN to mark the departing president's eight years in power.

Mrs Bush admitted that she took it personally when Mr Obama attacked her husband during last year's election campaign and blamed the economic crisis on his bad management.

Asked if she was angry, she replied: 'Yes, sort of. George didn't really even know about it because he didn't really watch it that much.'

Her husband quickly chipped in, saying: 'So what's new?'

:yum: :yum: :yum: Sure made me laugh.

We've all heard the criticisms of the Bush-Cheney administration.

In a year or two, it will be interesting to hear what folks think of the Obama bin Biden administration! :w00t2:

Old thread but this fits:
Mark Twain quote. Time has sure proved this to be accurate.

Ol' Mark seldom ever said anything stupid. It's too bad we don't have an equivalent of him or Will rogers in our times today. We just lost the nearest thing to them yesterday!!

Charles Krauthammer:
"This is hopeless," he murmured. "There's no rational discussion to be had with people who reject reason because pumping up passions is easier for them."
While in Montreal in the 60's.
Sure fits for how the Dems are acting in the US today. :(

Here are some I've heard over the years:


"The good part of Phoenix isn't even in Phoenix!" Common saying in Phoenix (and one of my favorites).


"Any publicity is good publicity!" By a cynic who wants publicity.

"No good deed goes unpunished. " Attributed to the Irish (and a favorite of my grandmother).


"Just because I'm paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get me!" By some paranoid person (and a favorite of my friend Joe).


"Sensationalism sells!" By the media no doubt.


"If your not at least a little paranoid in this day and age you're just not thinking . . ." By a prepared man (one my brother's favorites.)


"Lord save me from Doctors, lawyers and priests!"

One of my mother's favorites, (based on an Irish prayer - I'm sure).

Attributed to Will Rogers. "I never met a man I didn't like".


The left off parts:

"But give me awhile and I will learn to hate them."

- Will Rogers -

“We have a moral responsibility to protect God’s creation for generations to come”
- Nancy Pelosi


Just which generations is she talking about?
Surely not the unborn.
She WAS however talking about those affected by "climate change"

“The decision to leave election law hidden beneath a shroud of doubt is baffling,” he wrote. “By doing nothing, we invite further confusion and erosion of voter confidence. Our fellow citizens deserve better and expect more of us.”

In Modern America (sic) we see a society, and particularly its educated elite, lacking the will to impose constraints on the behavior of adolescents. The wisdom of the ages teaches otherwise. Children, adolescents, and adults all need constraints of various kinds — guardrails, in the words of a famous Wall Street Journal editorial. Everyone likes to have a good time, but most people come to recognize that happiness and satisfaction come not so much from the enjoyment of pleasure as from the performance of duty. A life without constraints is not a dream but a nightmare.
