I may be a liberal who disagrees with conservative policies, but I can respect GHW Bush. Unlike his son, he was qualified for his position; and he knew when to stop vis-à-vis Iraq. He was not a fanatic. I wish him a full recovery.
Yes, I’ve always liked Bush 41. Whenever he’d enter or leave the old Astrodome for an Astros game I readily stood and gave polite applause. He’s a very decent man and I hope his hospital stay is brief and comfortable.
I concur (well not the “but only” part). I wonder if he had time to retype his memoirs by now?
I am reminded of when he did a skydive to celebrate his 80th? birthday. When Mrs Bush was asked what she thought of this she said something like “either way, its his last time”
Hope she is wrong and he gets to do it again at 90.
I hope he’s improved and home with his family for Christmas.
I highly respect his decision to liberate Kuwait and defend Saudi Arabia from Saddam. His British partner Margaret Thatcher is also getting up in age and shaky health.
I hope it’s as minimal as the press release makes it sound and he’s home soon. I was touched when I heard that he and former Pres. Clinton had struck up a decent friendship.
