Did anyone else just see Hillary on Tweety complimenting lil Bush bringing country together?

[hedda_foil]

She strongly implied that she wants to bring both sides of the country together like he did????? I'm gobsmacked that she would say that at all, much less in a hard fought race before the first primary.

1. Both are War Hawks.

[Broward]

2. She said that?

Well, he did bring some members of both sides together to support the Iraq War.

[Mika]

3. It'll require some sort of "Pearl Harbor" type of event.

[Punkingal]

4. She often praises him. She is his "sister-in-law" by the way, so he said.

[emulatorloo]

5. You're twisting what she said, I'm afraid

she correctly stated Bush-baby discouraged people from equated people of Muslim faith with al Qaeda.

Yes Bush sucks, but that is one thing he was correct about. He did not public ally demonize all Muslims, and asked Americans to recognize that most Muslims were peace-loving.

The context was Trump's demonizing divisive anti-Muslim rhetoric.

[hedda_foil]

8. Yes, I heard that too. This came earlier in the interview.

I didn't say that she complimented him beyond that because she didn't.

[emulatorloo]

14. I understand.

However I did not at all see an implication that she wants to be like Bush. It was a contrast to the anti-Muslim rhetoric of all the GOP candidates.

I despise Bush, but I do give him credit for saying that. There was so much anti-Muslim rhetoric then about US Muslims and extremists wanting to attack Mosques.

[hedda_foil]

15. I agree. He was quite good at not portraying all Muslims as evildoers.

There was that time he talked about leading a crusade....

[emulatorloo]

16. Yup remember that one as well.

An idiot.

17. He walked it back when he learned the (C)rusades have a special meaning to Muslims./nt

9. "A man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest."

[NurseJackie]

10. +1 (Thank you) nt

[DemocratSinceBirth]

11. The Boxer

[NurseJackie]

12. I have that ... on vinyl.

(Sigh.)

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. If you get the chance watch Carrie Fisher's "Wishful Drinking" on HBO.

In it she says there is nothing better than to have Paul Simon write a song for you.

[Hekate]

19. Thank you, emulatorloo. Just--thank you.

[MeNMyVolt]

22. I agree.

BS supporters like him/her makes me think. The rest, meh.

[msongs]

6. he did...for about a week lol nt

[TM99]

7. Nothing like a war in the ME to bring

the country together. Maybe she can allow a terrorist attack in the first year of office to get the ball rolling.

[7wo7rees]

18. Beautiful and WTF? Really?

So glad we missed it. Might have broke TV screen.

[Rose Siding]

20. Since trump's incendiary remarks, Hil has noted that dubya

calmed some of the hatred for Muslims a few times. He did do that, even made highly publicized visits to mosques. It wouldn't have hurt you or your tv. Any effort that any candidate makes to still the waters of discrimination is worthy.

[leveymg]

21. She may well be given the opportunity to play out that role.

Serial regime change and the death of several million people across the Mideast is not free, forever.

[Gman]

23. The country did come together line I've never seen before

Or since in my lifetime.

Not sure how much Bush had to do with it.
