Maher slams George W. Bush for hypocrisy of ‘nauseating’ ride with disabled veterans



By Arturo Garcia Saturday, June 1, 2013

Hearing that former president George W. Bush went on a motorcycle ride with a group of disabled Iraq war veterans did not sit well with Real Time host Bill Maher on Friday.



“I found this to be nauseating,” Maher said of Bush’s appearance at the Warrior 100K Ride in Texas. “First he sends them off to war to get their limbs blown off, then he has them over for a barbecue. This is like the Cleveland guy having a pizza party for those girls he had in his basement.”

Bush tried democracy before invading Iraq.

Funny, I don't remember that.

Ah, that'll be the same democracy that Blair tried then.

At least he's seems to have been basically honest in his intentions. More than youi can say for Blair.

‘I don’t feel sorry for them, because they don’t feel sorry for themselves.’




Brutally honest maybe?

George W. Bush back in favor? His ratings make a surprising jump

More Americans now view Goerge W. Bush favorably than unfavorably, according to a Gallup poll. It's typical for ex-presidents to see their ratings rise, but Mr. Bush's jump is significant.

Can we view this as another lie created by so said main stream media? How easy it is to produce a number to serve rulers’ policy. (government, in their word) Is it a preparation for coming war in Syria and Iran?

I am not surprised by W's new popularity.

All the rightwingnuts think he was the second coming of Ronnie Raygun.

Except, of course, for the far right wingnuts, who call him a "liberal".

Nah, it's just what happens. Happened with Clinton; happened with Carter. Hell, we even got pretty friendly with Nixon after he left office.
