WOW! Jenna and Junior telling Poppy's story on MSNBC because Poppy is TOO HUMBLE!

The Andrea Greenspan Reacharound Hour. That was Jenna's introduction, Poppy hasn't written his own story because he is "too humble."

Jenna interviewing Dubya about Little Baby Jesus George H.W. Bush.

It's BUSH FEVER, and only on MSNBC!

russia's military ambitions were ignited again after the invasion of iraq.

then there was the stupidity or willingness to let 911 happen under the repug watch.

because of who her daddy was, talking about it on a show with Andrea Greenspan who got her job because of who her husband was.

All they needed was Puke Russert, who only has a job because of who his daddy was.

I really do think that Jeb is running.

The Bush operation this morning was full on propaganda. Filled with emotionally manipulative music.

But I saw the teaser, with the footage of Jenna sitting across the family picnic table from Dim Son and Grandpa in his wheelchair, all soft focus and bright sunshine. I suppose if the table had been made out of the actual bones of the victims of the Bush family while they drank great flagons of blood it might have been at least truthful. But the Toady Show is really going out of its way to top itself every week in fawning obeisance to the greediest, most bloodthirsty motherfuckers the planet has ever seen. And I consciously include the Borgias and Caligula in that calculation.

Actually, the rehabilitation campaign, years in the planning, was quietly launched a few weeks ago. It is starting as a murmur and will end with a crescendo.

the election is over so the Ebola crisis story can go away and now it
is time to buff up that turd that is the bush family into a diamond so
Jeb can continue the screw job of brother w and Poppy Bush.

BTW the media has been in on propping up the bush family from the get go ....
How many stories did we see about w going back to "his ranch" which was built by
Enron in 1999 and 2000, the cattle were rentals, w was afraid of horses, and
that and the whole thing was big fucking fake propin order to sell w's "country
roots."

I want to see one story on the regular news that ISIS is the direct result of w & Dick
Cheney's war in Iraq.

some people say it's related to opium/heroine drug running in Afghanistan back in Poppy's CIA days. Nah, silly, no way ANYONE would do THAT! It's all a conspiracy.

George Walker is a war criminal, a grand thief and a murdering skunk. George Walker handed down all those fine qualities to his spawn.

If it hadn't been for Poppy's friends, he wouldn't have had most of those "earning opportunities" anyway. At least that's the way my memory stored it. Maybe my memory is wrong.

Not only are they opening the door for Jeb, I would imagine the old man is not far from his last ceremony. He doesn't look that good.

Has Barb shown up, yet? I'm sure her wisdom will be welcome in Jeb's campaign.

What a family...and it looks like it never ends.

As in all he did was bumble - everything he touched tended to crumble -

humble is the LAST word to use with that sociopath.
