Bush Sr.: Just Google all of my son's failures
By SilentPatriot Sunday Jan 04, 2009 6:00pm
In a somewhat understandably soft ball interview with Chris Wallace, former President George H.W. Bush defends what is by most accounts his son's epic failure of a presidency and defers to "the Google" when asked about which things W could be "fairly criticized for."
Bush: He's gonna come home with his head high, knowing he ran a clean operation and he kept this country strong and free after an unprecedented history attack of 9/11. He'll have a lot too be proud of and he can start by his mother and father being very proud of him...and we always will be.
Wallace: You said there earlier there are some things he could fairly be criticized for. Would you like to tell me any of those?
Bush: "No. You can go back to your, what do you call it.... Your Google, and you figure all that out."
On some level you gotta feel sorry for Papa Bush. It's pretty clear that he always wanted his other son, Jeb, to be the second Bush President.

on one low level. Without his nitwit son the Bush crime legacy might have gone unnoticed, much.
what I feel sorry is for our collective asses especially by the negligence (or conspiracy) of our press corps, which allowed the son and the grandson of an asshole, who proactively conspired to overthrow the US government, to become president of the United States.
If we had had a real press in this country, no Bush should have ever been a viable political candidate. Not with the baggage of treason carried out by Prescott Bush.
Tyler is right.
If this MF Bush or his ilk are EVER looking for sympathy, they can find it in the dictionary between shit and syphilis.
Poppy's complicity in JFK's assassination -- treason -- and the October Surprise -- treason -- and 9/11 -- treason. I'm also wondering how much part he played in undermining the Paris peace talks during the Vietnam war and RFK's assassination, since the latter was apparently undertaken by the same Cuban CIA operators who helped kill JFK.
Oh, and helping W steal his two presidential elections. And Poppy's involvement with CIA drug smuggling. I could go on and on... .
Well, you wouldn't have Bugliosi agree with you on the JFK matter. BTW, where does the C&L community stand on Bugliosi?
And I believe you're thinking of Kissinger, war criminal extraordinare who helped scuttle the Paris peace talks.
I went to the Google and typed "worst president ever" and guess who's name came up in link after link after link? Poppy must have been on the Google too just before this interview.
I think the first link that comes up sums it up best http://www.rollingstone.com/news/profile/stor...
no matches...
And lo! Abou ben Dubya's name led all the rest!
If you googlize "George Bush", you eventually get this:
http://www.tarpley.net/bushb.htm
If some how, some way, in some complete realigning of the planets Jeb Bush makes it to the White House in 2012, 2016 or 2020 and I'm still alive during the former, I will move to Canada. This is not a joke. That russian guy who predicted the fall of this country may not be right about 2010 but if we get another Bush...We'll leave it at that.
When I type in ‘bush failures’ on my internet computing device I get 3,260,000 hits in just 0.06 seconds. Who has the time to read all that??
"Don't be like me, cut your nuts today."
...in print underneath it says, "I should have pulled out."
I hate when he wears it....but, good God, I couldn't agree more!
If GW was the "winner" of that "race" think about how bad the others could have been.
Perhaps in his next interview Poppy can direct us to this link about Pappy Prescott Bush being in bed with the Nazis. http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/sep/25/u...
I guess being a war profiteer and a traitor runs in the Bush family.
LOL If you type in ‘George W Bush Failures’ you get 5,660,000 hits.
Daddy Bush might use that suggestion to people overseas but all Americans are feeling the paid of what his son has done. Right now with the Cluster bombs Bush gave Israel Palestine people are being murdered. The only people who might not know all the crimes and failures done by George W. Buish is the people Bush had killed about 1 million Iraq people and 4000 plus US soldiers killed based on Bush's lies. Daddy Bush can now say with pride his son George is the worst President in the History of the USA even beating Nixon. Next Daddy Bush will be crying when his son goes to trial for War Crimes by the United Nations. That's Daddy Bush's son's Legacy. Jeb is known for the fix on the Election by Jeb Bush then Govenor.
The chimp is not only the worst president in US history, he's the arch criminal of american history. Benedict Arnold can at long last rest easy, knowing that the mantle of arch villain has finally been placed on another's shoulders.
..that if you stack Poppy's entire record in "public service" (covert & overt) up against W's, you'd be hard pressed to find a difference.
Why does the media pretend it isn't rue?
Because they aren't media and they aren't journalists? Because they are a top-down orchestrated propaganda cartel run by only a very small handful of like-minded CEO's who are all serving the advance of a totalitarian neo-fascist state?
Yeah, I think that's it.
and got 3,240,000 hits.
Sorry GHWB, I don't have the 11 months or so that it would take me (at 1,000 links every day) to look up all your idiot son's f*ckups.
I bet he'll come home with his "head high," full of booze.
I guess I can't blame Poppy for defending his own son; what else is he going to say?
I saw that Poppy would like for Jeb to run for President....God, no, please....I don't ever want to hear about any Bush again!!!!
We've got another 2 weeks of idiot chimp in office, and I will then be so glad he's gone.....but no doubt we'll be feeling the effects of his crimes and misdeeds for years to come.
the um, er, uh... whatchallit.. Fortune 500 business... whatever that is. lol. I love how old fart neocons try to downplay Google's success.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=who+is+a...
Googling it on one of those Cray supercomputers, but it said there wasn't enough memory for all the hits.
Like father like son, and like the grandfather mentioned above, all war criminals, fascists, and puppets of the military industrial complex.
So, if my son got pissed off at the neighbors for doing something and took a bunch of his friends into their yard to beat the crap out of them and then declared he had every right to do so to protect his own, I should pat him on the head and say "GOOD JOB".
Give me a break. George... you spared the rod and spoiled the child then foisted him onto us ... so no we have to clean up after ....
Go Google that.....
Bush: He's gonna come home with his head high, knowing he ran a clean operation and he kept this country strong and free after an unprecedented history attack of 9/11. He'll have a lot too be proud of and he can start by his mother and father being very proud of him...and we always will be.
too dumb braindead assholes,
i wonder if they were this
proud as bushbaby gave the
bin laden family cartblanche
to air travel after 911?
Bush 41: "You did it Son! You made all the rich people richer. Way to go!"
Bush 43: "Thanks Dad. I couldn't have done it without you!"
F*** them all.
I wonder how much bigger the Bush Family Fortune is now since his idiot son took office. As for him mentioning Jeb being President...does he have any idea of the national revulsion at the very thought of another Bush presidency?
i'll give you the one big failure of
barbara bush. she spread her legs once too often.
and we have this insufferable bastard running
the country.
Feel sorry for Poppy Bush? Yeah, in a pig's ass. The better part of his son Shrub ran down Barb's leg.
This old bastard was buddies with the Bin Laden family and the ruling family of Saudi Arabia, and was with them during the 9-11 attacks. He's in it, up to his neck, just like old Prescott Bush was sucking Hitler's dick.
And the Republicans have got the balls to bitch about old Joe Kennedy because he ran liquor during Prohibition. He was a saint compared to the Bush Crime Family.
...what a line up - or should I say they should all be in a Line-Up!
And, as I recall, the Walkers weren't anything to write home about either.
I sincerely hope that our nation (and the people of the world, for that matter) manages to survive the "legacy" of this horrid family and all of their compatriots. Never have so few wrought so much horror and despair upon so many as the Bush Crime Family - Good Riddance!
defending a complete screw up son who's never had to face the consequences of any bad choice he made, then or now.
..oh wait, they were talking George W., not Jeb. Well, I guess that neoconservative bastard will have to go to his grave knowing he sired the worst President in history. Thanks for nothing, George. Your son tried to outdo you and now a million people are dead, this nation is busted and broke, and the world hates us. All because your other son helped engineer a Presidential heist.
May your entire family rot in Hell.
He still wants Jeb to be Prez.
I'm hoping that the chimp has done such damage to the Bush Crime family name that it has destroyed the Bushes as a political dynasty. No only "no" to Jeb, but "hell no" when he gets around to thinking he has any future left in politics. He or any of the other Bush spawn.
I have had a few moments of feeling sorry for the old twit, especially when he was having all those public crying jags a while ago. But he brought a lot of this on himself. As a former president, he should know what the job entails. And as the father of Baby Bush, he should have known that his son was in no way qualified and would eventually bring ridicule and shame down on the family. And supported him anyway.
since George W Bush took office than during all previous administrations combined. Makes you proud, doesn't it sir?
Clown Number 1 (Bush Sr) is responsible for forcing Clown Number 2 (Bush Jr) on the Nation through his backdoor man, James Baker (Clown Number 3).
Actions have consequences. The Bush legacy can now be minimally stated as "Utter Failure"
he raised the bastard
he let him turn into a drunk cokehead
helped him to get businesses that he failed at
helped him get the prez of the texas rangers
helped him get the gov of texas
if w was my son...i woulda kicked the shit out of him and let the cops toss his ass in jail long before he fucked up the country
.......... except that he is married to the repulsive Barbara Bush. I feel sorry for the world that had to experience the crimes of this crime family.
No more Bushes in public office.
his nickname for Barbara is "The Badger." Sweet, no?
a movie title: 'Back to the Google'.
Once again, SilentPatriot couldn't be more wrong. What is his/her deal with poo poohing away the crimes of the Bush family?
Bush as a Failure? What kind of poor reporting actually subscribes to this meme? Someone who couldn't recognize a criminal enterprise if it flew a jet up his arse.
Here's just a short list of what the so-called failures have accomplished.... SilentPatriot - perhaps you ought to be more silent. Are you really this blind?
Iraq War 2 (and probably Gulf War 1)
The deaths of almost 1 million Iraqis and displacement of 4 million refugees
$140+/bbl oil achieving obscene record-breaking profits for oil conglomerates
Taken Iraqi oil off the market
Kept Iraq from opening non-US dollar bourse
Stacked the Supreme Court with Neocons with a cake-walk confirmation
Escaping justice for numerous domestic and International War crimes
Escaping impeachment with collusion of key Democrats (fellow CFR members)
Enriched the war machine & Military Industrial Complex
Installed 2 Attorney Generals who would block investigations and supeaonas and ignore whistle-blowers
Gutted Habeas Corpus
Rationalized torture
Conveniently misplaced trillions (Sept 10th, 2001) and later billions of dollars
Reestablished record breaking opium production in Afghanistan

Manipulated - Stole 2000 and 2004 elections
Used hoaxed Niger Yellow-cake "evidence" with no political repercussions.
Lied about Iraqi WMD's
Lied about Jessica Lynch-Pat Tillman
Working on reigniting Russian-American Cold War (Russian bomber flights, etc)
Gutted independent officer corps

Moving towards Full Spectrum Dominance paradigm and capability for military
Massive expenditures for Chem-Bio, Space Weapons, Internet cybercorps
Intimidation (or willful cooperation) of Media & Business
Permanent military bases in Iraq
Gargantuan money-pit US embassy in Iraq
Passed Patriot Act after convenient Anthrax and Manchurian-style Sniper attacks
Passed Military Commissions Act
Massive debt to break government (and public)
Electronic surveillance and massive databases
Illegal warrantless wiretaps
First-rate mercenary forces enriched and empowered - and trained
Broke Posse Comitatus precedent with Blackwater and US military domestic deployment
Blinding of America to Iranian nuclear program by collapsing US intelligence efforts
Decimated New Orleans post-Katrina (dry-run for martial law)
Coopted Justice Department

Bankruptcy "reform" that made it harder to restart in the event of disaster
700+ billion dollar bailouts of financial industry
No Child Left Behind and other Orwellian named govt initiatives
Garnered cooperation of fellow CFR and Trilateral Democrats to enable agenda
Unending blank checks from Congress
Bailed out the Crooked mortgage industry from subprime housing collapse
Convenient benefiting from a "New Pearl Harbor"
Pulled a sham Investigation on 9-11 over on the public for a paltry $15 million
But the piece de resistance - Conning the American public that they are incompetent.
And you honestly believe that sacrificing 3000 civilians on 9/11 and an ongoing body count currently at 4050+ troops to achieve their goals is beyond them both ethically and logistically? Wake up.
What more do you want to qualify them as a success? Most people think they are incompetent because they are operating according to a different game-plan, or paradigm, than the normal person. Normal people wouldn't operate at this level of corruption and genuine evil. These people are expert Machiavellian psychopaths (with a strong dose of Straussian Noble Lie telling) and to attempt to associate normal behaviors to them is an exercise in futility. You absolutely CANNOT continue to believe that the administration is incompetent - they are completely competent and shocking us into accepting a fascist version of America (just like Prescott Bush and his cohorts in the financial elite and industrialists tried in the 1930s)
Machiavelli - who greatly influenced Strauss - laid out how the elites would/coopt any form of government they wanted:
He who desires or attempts to reform the government of a state, and wishes to have it accepted and capable of maintaining itself to the satisfaction of everybody, must at least retain the semblance of the old forms; so that it may seem to the people that there has been no change in the institutions, even though in fact they are entirely different from the old ones.
Machiavelli. Discourses on Livy
Looks like dubya achieved quite a bit, no? He ain't no failure ... he's a roaring success!
No wonder Pappy is so proud.
I think I need a cigarette, and a drink.
Well laid out and said, the part about SP being blind notwithstanding.
I may use this on my blog! Excellent work.
Thank you!
thank you.
please also see the work of Andrew Lobaczewski, Political Ponerology. very important work on psychopaths that get into government and bring other psychopaths with them.
this also draws some on the documentary, the Corporation.
and finally, for a very thorough listing of the Bush scandals/crimes see:
http://www.netrootsmass.net/Hugh/Bush_list.html
You nailed it.
Does Pappy Bush really have no idea of the damage his off-spring has done to this country and the world?
I know Mommy Bush is clueless because she would never let her beautiful mind be bothered by death and destruction of people not her kind.
Not feeling the least bit sorry for this former CIA Director, poor excuse for a president himself, who is now positioning son #2 for the senate and presidency. All bad apples. I feel sorry for us, the American people. These people are evil. What in the world were you thinking about??
former CIA director and former CIA undercover.
Prime time player in Operation Zappata, and Operation Kennedy.
We need a constitutional amendment that bars anyone from the Bush Crime Family from ever holding public office again.
Like friggin hell. Here's the original viper who introduced Rovian end justifies the means politics and media. Methinks kinder gentler Poppy will be palling around with Adolf, Mao and Uncle Joe in Hell.
No more Gawd damn Bushes including Battleaxe, Pickles, George Pee, Pierce, the model, even Billy - any of them especially this senile old WIMP's self pitying homilies.
See ya at the state funeral you utter bastard.
It has recently become an overriding goal in my life that I live just long enough to outlast Poppy and Chimpy - just so that I can have the pleasure of taking a dump on both of their graves before I go.
I always appreciate your posts and I thank you for them.
:)
Or, without the proper catalyst, the reaction will not occur...
"To those whom much is given; much is expected in return."
Kinda says it in a nutshell doesn't it?
He can take that one to his grave. Soon.
Watching Pappy is disgusting enough, but Chrissie's fawning, ass-kissing worship of the old coot sends it over the top.
Truly gag-inducing.
Or for his descendants. The Bush crime family got rich loaning money to Nazis, and from there got even richer by getting dirtier.
GHW wants Jeb to become a Senator or President????
Are you smoking dope old man?
The Bush family has made millions from three generations sucking on the government teet.
American voters must draw the line on these parasites, it is not about service.......never has been.
Problem is he doesn't even care if it's as a senator or as pres. All he cares about is keeping one of them in a high profile public "service" job. Once in office, they can always use the many executive orders to place Jeb where he's needed, eventually.
I'll google both of you - you worthless POS. And your father, AND your grandfather. I don't know which of your Crime Family is the biggest LOSER of the bunch.
Yeah - go ahead - run Jeb - steal another election or two and then eight years later - we can google yet ANOTHER Bush LOSER.
I just did the google thing. Man, there's a lot of bad words out there to describe his failures. I think is easier to list his achievements, like..., hmmm. Even Fox news would have a hard time figuring this one out without lying.
Just Google: worst president ever, and you will be busy the rest of the night.
BTW Cafe Press has an entire selection of worst president ever attire........will soon be replaced with "most irrelevant ex-president ever".
failures since 2000
http://www.publicintegrity.org/investigations...
Use this, and you can ignore google.
listening to any bushie speak,
or listening to chris wallace give an "interview"
Pride is ugly too!
Satan here. Come to daddy Bush.
Your next Senator from FLORDIA will be JEB BUSH, then it is the remake of W.Bush Eight years in the White house From Eight of the worst (8) Eight of the Greatest, with the Help of the CORPORATE CONTROLED MEDIA, AIPAIC, Rove (TURD BLOSSOM) and the weak leader ship coming from the DEMOCRATIC PARTY(Pelosi,REID and others), then it is on to the WHITE House For JEB Bush and CRIME FAMILY. The CORPORATE CONTROLED MEDIA loves, Jeb Bush. Maby LIE-berman will go with Jeb or become head of the DLC. and help get JEB Elected.
But i doubt it could find all of Bush's failures.
Cramming the Patriot Act down our throats.. Literally stripping us of our liberty and he praises fucking freedom???
The CIA must be proud to brainwash these idiots. Bush is an epic failure.
He's statement exhibited some symptoms of Dementia. In school we've been studying about this group of disease. And I must admit that his short term memory of what happen to this country under his son's rule
blatantly obvious that he has no recollections of his environment.
I'm sorry but he can cry, whine and have a childish fit how "great" his son Jeb, is as a potential POTUS. But after the roadkill trauma of having his son as preznut . I think a psychological assessment for him is the right answer, for surely how can anyone with healthy braincells forget the history that was Nov 4, when people all over this country voted in troves; in almost a revolution to outvote another republican out of office so as not to repeat another bush mishap.
Unbelievable!
For the past two weeks, we have heard from Laura, Cheney, Condi,
Pappa Bush, et al, all attempting to clean up the unforgivable
criminal legacy of GW Bush.
SORRY BUT YOU CAN'T DO IT!
HE IS THE WORST POTUS EVER!!
Sadly, we have one more to hear from so get ready.
Surely Mama Bush, the Gang's major enabler will soon
begin her press tour lying about GW.
If only, one member of the MSM would let loose and tell these
George enablers the TRUTH, maybe they would stop
"pimping" Jeb as some kind of new and wonderful Bushite.
THIS FAMILY/GANG NEEDS TO TAKE THEIR WAR PROFITS, GO
HOME AND SHUT UP.
THE MORE WE HEAR FROM THEM, THE MORE DETERMINED WE
BECOME TO WANT JUSTICE FROM THEM.
Google whacks Sonny at Tollbooth. "Look what they've done to my boy!", weeps Don Giorgio.
"I never thought you a bad consigliere, Karlo. I thought Sonny was a bad Don, rest in peace. And Fredo? Well, Fredo....."
Bush Crime Family History just writes itself.
All due respect boosh sr...
I don't have that kind of time!
Do I feel sorry for this arse upon everything has set except a human. Please, Bushes, just go quietly into that good night.
America can't tolerate another stupid asshole Bushie as president. It would be devastating to the world.
Too bad Barbara didn't stay on birth control for just a few more years.
Bush I, as a former President, you should have felt obligated to this country to challenge your reckless son's destructive policies. But that would have made holiday dinners a little awkward, wouldn't it?
That makes you a collaborator in the blatant treason of the Bush White House.
He ran a clean operation? Where have you been for the last 8 years?
.... caught the criminals of 1993 WTC attack then kept us safe until the end of his term? Who kept us safe until Bush ignored a warning that we are about to be attacked before 9/11 happened and the main perpetrator is still on the loose? Who has spent $hundreds of billions and hundreds of thousands of lives - our own and Iraqis to get us to the dilemma we are in now?
Tell Bush 41 to shut up withj that sh!t.
Bush 41: "he kept this country strong and free after an unprecedented history(sic) attack of 9/11."
...he brought the neo-conservative movement, which was growing in popularity at the time of his election, down to its knees.
pappy boosh should Google "Miserable Failure."
No one has mentioned the double lightning strike of the bush's:
The first strike being the attempted assassination of President Ron Reagan by a Hinkley son--the Hikeley's were family friends and businsss associates of then V.P papa bush.
The second strike being the son of Bin Ladin also family friends and business partners of the bush's--in a role of 911 helper/doer, frequent video (as needed) sender and general helper at large.
let it be known NOT ONE SINGLE TERRORIST ATTACK while Bush has been in office ! Silent Patriot get your facts straight !
W-H-A-T!? You don't consider 911 a terrorist attack? That happened while Bush was in office. About 9 months into his term, in fact. Of course, there IS some question as to who actually perpetrated it. Nevertheless, it was still a TERRORIST ATTACK, rightnut...
Interesting choice of words...
Sounds kind of like testimony at a trial. Could America be so fortunate?
