The Filth Forum
TORONTO – Former President George W. Bush called former President Bill Clinton "his brother" and the two rarely disagreed in their first-ever appearance together on stage.
Bush said that he never liked it when previous administration officials criticized his government but said Clinton was respectful and never did.
Bush declined to criticize the Obama administration. Bush said there are "plenty of critics in America."
Toronto's convention center, a couple hundred protesters demonstrated outside. The organizers declined to say how much the men were paid for the event, called "A conversation with Presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton." Ticket prices sold for around C$200.
Asked why he didn't stop the killing in the Rwanda genocide when he was president in 1994, Clinton said he had no excuse or defense.
"It's one of the two or three greatest regrets of my presidency," Clinton said.
Clinton said the U.S. could have saved 250,000 or 400,000 of the 800,000 people who died had he sent about 20,000 troops. Bush defended Clinton, saying 20,000 troops could not have been mobilized quickly.
Suupporters of either of these amazing pieces of garbage must be so proud!?!

I still don't win any friends by criticizing the beloved Bush despite the fact that he sold out conservatives and literally paved the way for everything that is happening now.
The other day, Glenn Beck had Limbaugh on and actually asked Limbaugh about Bush failures. To which Limbaugh immediately changed the subject. That, of course is what makes Limbaugh complicit in all this. Beck, of course, didn't have the courage to force Limbaugh to deal with the question as asked.
So really, they're all pretty much worthless.
Ah yes, being paid handsomely causes them to do something out of character? Or does it expose the real character?
Besides, who'd pay to hear Bush talk by himself?
Wasn't that his problem when he was in office?!?
I'm perfectly happy to go with your characterization.
This morning my wife was going on about all the terrible things Obama has done and hopes to do, and I simply asked, who's responsible for making it all possible?
"Obama."
"Oh no."
"Republicans?"
"Not Republicans, ONE Republican."
"That's true."
Have the "people" elevated the President to the status of a "Living God" ?
Former Presidents do not have the courage to stand by our Constitution and criticize the current President.
