George W Bush has described Bill Clinton as a 'brother from another mother' in a gushing interview about their surprising friendship.
He added that his own father 'serves as a father figure' to Clinton, who pushed the elder Bush out of office in 1992.
And among the many jokes they share, they have recently been chortling about the 2016 election when Clinton's wife Hillary could well run against Bush's younger brother Jeb.

The truth is somewhere else.

(484 posts)and I wouldn't want to associate with someone who had no qualms about palling around with an unindicted war criminal who was responsible for the death of one million innocent people.
I guess Bill doesn't "feel (their) pain".

And you can believe if Jeb is the the republican nominee and the Dems nominate Hillary the race will be a garden party.
She ain't gonna say anything unseemly about her brother in law from another mother.
Bill wouldn't sit still for it.

(19,460 posts)Oh I see, you mean that Hillary is not smart enough to decide what she wants to say without Bill.

(23,664 posts)So theres no reason to expect that Hillary will be able to avoid being linked to Bill's screwups either.
All I know is I don't want to see either of those two jerks anywhere near public office in this country again.
