Those in favor of George H.W. Bush shutting the fuck UP, raise your hands

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

Sort of a Level 3 kind of Poll.

Asked about the criticism, the former president said, "I think any time there's a crisis people want to blame someone. I've never been much for the Monday morning quarterbacking and to be very candid, Larry, I think some of the criticism had been grossly unfair, particularly when they suggest the president doesn't care and all of that. "You have to understand that people that are hurting are going to criticize. I thought President Clinton put it pretty well today when he said 'Let's get on with it and then there will be plenty of time to assign blame.' "But you know the media has a fascination, Larry, and you know this, I'm not saying you but the media has a fascination with the blame game and instead of looking for what can we do to help now there's a lot of why didn't we do something different?"

KING: "But even the president said the reaction should have been faster that he wasn't satisfied."

G. BUSH: "Sure. I don't think -- certainly I'm not satisfied but I'm just talking about the blame game and there was one particularly vicious comment that the president didn't care, was insensitive on ethnicity."

KING: "Yes."



ABOVE: Kanye "George Bush doesn't care about Black people" West. BITE ME, PAPPY. You TOO, Larry.

G. BUSH: "Insensitive about race. Now that one hurt because I know this president and I know he does care and you know what can he do? He can just go out and do what he's doing today, showing that the federal government is involved, has been involved, will continue to be involved.

[FormerRepublican]

5. Me!

:hi:

It makes me feel physically ill when I see any of the Bushes after Katrina. They need to stay the * off TV! I turned on the news again this morning to see how things were going with the survivors, and there was Bush yet again trying to spin himself into innocence. I turned the TV OFF!

6. He should eat a pile of steaming shit

[iconoclastic cat]

7. Well, I'll raise one finger for Shrubby, that's for sure.

And get that dessicated mummy off the damn field.

[Pacifist Patriot]

:hi:

[KansDem]

13. Include me in!

:hi:

I think America has had enough of the Bush Family!

I think all their assets should be seized on some charge, like, oh, say, "conspiracy to impersonate humans." Then turn their assets over to victims of their malfeasance.

[underpants]

14. HEY!

:hi:

[MN ChimpH8R]

15. Aye!

:hi:

[calimary]

16. Here!

He should shut up and move over and let the guy who REALLY knows what it's like to have nothing, and to have to make it without fancy-pants would-be aristocrats for parents, and truly does feel people's pain. I'd like Clinton to speak for you. I'd rather pay attention to him. He's a lot more eloquent than you'll EVER be. And he doesn't whine about how people are being mean to his evil spawn, either.

17. Fist in the air. . .

[MissMarple]

18. He and Barb...so they think the evacuees in Texas made out pretty well.

The compassion exuded by this family is killing us.

[MissMarple]

19. And here is Barbie's sentiment:

"What I'm hearing which is sort of scary is that they all want to stay in Texas. Everybody is so overhwlemed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway so this (chuckle)--this is working very well for them."

I took it from the DU front page.

20. Do ya think people will notice if he keeps his foot in his mouth

And maybe even notice the genetic pattern?

Maybe he should just keep talking...

[grasswire]

21. hi thee to an ossuary!

Ghoulish grifters. The world will be a better place when they are gone. (And I don't say that lightly.)

[Contrary1]

22. My hand is getting tired...

I've had it raised for almost 5 years now.
