Why all the fake crying from Poppy?

[goclark]

Happened to see him on tv and he was crying.
They said he was making an appearance for Jeb the Texas Con Artist.

Did I miss something important?:nopity:

[savemefromdumbya]

1. I guess he just found out that his son is to be jailed?

kind of unusaual behavior?

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. Maybe it's really tears of joy for the resurrection of his Iran-Contra folk?

[aquart]

3. He wasn't faking. He lost control.

He never loses control. How's his health?

[acmavm]

4. Trying to convince everybody that Jeb is a good boy and that

he's all kinds of upset that his boys are getting picked on by everyone.

They're such a loving, kind, respectable bunch, don't ya know? :sarcasm:

What a terrible example of a parent, he has raised a family of crooks and stayed married to a Oatmeal Box Queen.

5. 'Cause he knows Jebbie is gonna be president

only when hell freezes over. The Bush Dynasty is kaput - mad king george has killed it off.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[malaise]

6. I wish MSM would show us some of the

weeping widows, parents and kids of soldiers killed in his son's illegal invasion and since. Fugg all of them.

[goclark]

10. Exactly malaise

He could cry all day and night and he would not have near the pain of the families that suffered in HIS War.

I say HIS because he allowed it to be nurtured by his crook friends and his dim son.


Cry me a River Poppy
Cry and never stop!

[malaise]

21. It was ridiculous

crying because his son lost an election. :puke: :puke:

KO says he cried because the wrong son became president.

11. His reaction makes me want to puke. Where's the nearest Japanese emperor?

[Golden Raisin]

28. Crocodile tears!

His son in the oval office has been a cancer on the Republic and the Constitution. I don't EVER want to see another member of that family elected (or installed by the Supreme Court) to any position. They should make Poppy and the rest of his family sit and watch the weeping parents of American boys and girls killed in this horrible, evil war.

[malaise]

29. You mean a cancer on planet earth right? n/t

7. Too much Prozac.

9. It hurts him that people are saying bad yet true things about his boys.

12. Tain't fake. He knows Shrub has ruined Jeb Crow Shrub's chances

He *does* have plenty to sob about:

* ditching two planes into the water, dead crew

* October Surprise (Iran hostages)

* Willie HORTON, Lee ATWATER, assorted Nazis

* His spawn


(& this just scratches the surface.)

[robertpaulsen]

20. My feelings exactly.

Thanks for pointing this out. Sometimes I think if only Lee Atwater had died in 1987, perhaps this would be a very different country. Maybe President Dukakis would have dug deeper into Iran/Contra and let justice be carried out on the BFEE. Then the last name Bush would be synonymous with the last name Arnold and the whole family could do their sobbing behind bars where the American public wouldn't have to be sickened by the spectacle.

22. Thats pretty much what they are saying on Olbermann right now - nt

[madmunchie]

23. How old is 41? I would imagine he is pretty scared about what

he has to answer for as he gets nearer to the end of his life. Its funny how, when facing death we just might grow a conscience. Plus, he knows that Jebs chances are toast and that W has rally put done the family in, in a big way...not that the family was that good to begin with, BUT, now the whole world has contempt for W and his family. What a legacy. Bush/Hitler not a very good thought to go to your grave with, knowing that people think of Hitler, when they hear the name "Bush".

[glitch]

13. Probably not fake - probably saw the focus group results on Jebby running.

My guess: dismal, beyond Diebold dismal.

[WI_DEM]

14. The man needs to get a grip

[JNelson6563]

15. Well put.

:rofl:

When I caught the clip of it my thought was: What a phoney.

25. Why would George H. W. Bush fake crying?

What's in it for him?

[catgirl]

16. I missed this

Can someone tell me what happened? Poppy crying?

18. What are his sons planning on putting him and babs in a home ?n/t

[oldtime dfl_er]

19. damn you guys are a funny bunch

I knew there would be some downright hilarious responses in this thread. Thanks for the laughs!! :)

[Eric J in MN]

24. I think it was real.

Bush Sr. doesn't have anything to gain from fake crying.

[Chomp]

30. I think the best way to deal with this crying episode

is with heartless, stone-cold glee.

That's certainly the spirit in which I've approached the matter.

That said, a bit unfortunate that I have been driven to laughing and cheering as a sick old man falls to pieces on live TV in front of his peers and family.

Heckuvajob * you fucking fuck.
