What say ye, LM fans? Are the Bushes the "best of America"?

Sources in positions to know confirmed yesterday that the FISA court had approved allowing the Marshall of the Supreme Court to seize control of any social media accounts that exposed the substance of sealed indictments to the public.

A number of posts claiming she wasn't a real conservative because she's from the U.K.

due to being from the U.K. and "European". And while there's some truth to that as a general rule, it's not really accurate as far as Mensch is concerned.

Really though, I suppose that shouldn't matter as her content speaks for itself. The occasional story she is somewhat correct on is far outweighed by the distracting bullshit and nonsensical conspiracy theories she puts out.

But you can track them down if you like with google, if you know how to use it properly. I didn't bookmark the individual posts, and I'm not going to do a bunch of research because someone on a forum doesn't want to believe me.

..."The best of America"...

... far more interested in Russian aggression than party politics. She surely has her soft spots when it comes to knowledge of US history and politics, but IMO, her intent is in the right place.

Two different things. Intent doesn't matter much if most of your work is innacurate, sloppy, or outright false.

I don't know her character beyond her non-Russia twitter posts and comments she makes. Just because she doesn't like the people I don't like doesn't make her noble, honest, or even good at her chosen career (which is the most important factor as far as we are concerned here).

Not surprised at your comment.

The Waltons? Seriously?

Check with some Iraqis and re-assess.

I tried to check. They must be busy with their new found liberation. Freedum seems to be working well for them. My contacts must be enjoying a day at the lake.

Well said.

but here you are.

is beyond my ken.

I'm not the only one who sees it.

and that certainly speaks for itself.

I did not think they would be TRAITORS like the Trump family is. Like...the BFEE was bad (I honestly thought Cheney was worse) but the Trumps take low to a new level.

this is working very well for them."

- Barbara Bush and her 'beautiful mind'

You betcha...

On the Bush Crime Family, not so much. Mensch has a lot to learn about the US oligarchy.

Mensch is a great citizen soldier for the IC and has done remarkable work. But she somehow isn't aware of Bush's VP, Mr. Cheney, who destroyed an intelligence branch by his outing of an undercover agent who was managing a spy network aimed at uncovering Iran's nuclear weapons interests. Instead, Mensch virtually deifies W. She should stick to what she knows.

Waiting on her every word.

Pfft.

Get a fucking clue, Louise.

If they can be cordial and friendly, who am I to complain about a birthday greeting?

Bill brings Bush Sr. funky socks...

In the brains of some DUers.

"How dare anyone say a kind word to a repuke president! What's that you say? Bush 1 left a kind and respectful note on the Oval Office desk for Bill Clinton? You mean the bush family are humans? What? Obama and Hillary said something nice about the Bush family? You're lying! You must be a RW troll! I'm hitting alert!"


Make no mistake, W was responsible for the worst presidency in my short life. "Was" is the operative word. The bush family may not be Saints but they are at least human.

And it helped created ISIS. And it was all predictable that this is what would happen.

It bothers me deeply that Obama and the Clinton's have no problem with that.

You weren't in the US when Bush 43 wreaked havoc. He lied us into the Iraq War. He sat on his thumbs for months before the 9/11 attacks. There's so much more. There is ample reason that he was criticized as "All hat, no cattle."

Louise Mensch is on the money when it comes to her laser-like focus on the Trump/Russia complex of scandals. But when her heart goes all a-flutter for the Bushes, it's time for me take a break. Her waxing patriotic over the Bush Crime Family is misguided and naive.

Well, no one's perfect...

His wife Bar had a birthday.

“Why should we hear about body bags and deaths? It’s not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?


or this about Katrina victims in the Astrodome:

"And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this, this is working very well for them."


That Bar? Yeah, she's really the best of America, that one.

What do you expect?

that right wing sources weren't allowed here, but for some reason this one is cited constantly.

And the people that link to her often describe her as an 'ally.' She is not. That's all.

To be honest I never thought about how posting tweets fits with the "no right wing sites or talking points" rule.

Despite the fact that they are "A-Class" citizens compared to Pussy Grabber, let's not forget that Pussy Grabber is a gigantic statistical outlier and he makes EVERYBODY look good in comparison.

GHWB was a lying fucker who employed Lee Atwater who came up with the Willy Horton ads. His wife, Barbara, despite her white hair and seemingly mild manner was (is) an entitled piece of shit.

And their offspring? Do we even need to go there?

WTF is wrong with Louise? She obviously has no fucking clue what she's talking about.

Amazed at some here on DU.

Though some don't surprise me.

Inheriting that sort of wealth does indeed guarantee an easy life in any career--or none--that one might want.

This is "raw intelligence" and should be treated as such

if you look at all the other stuff she retweeted.

with the country under attack.

And she says people should be putting "patriotism over party" -- which is more than the Jill Stein "progressives" ever said.

But I'm not buying into it and I'm not going to pretend she's something other than what she is.

that she's a Never-Trump conservative who is helping to rally the anti-Trump troops.

And I'm glad she's there.

How is it a witch hunt to link to real tweets and statements?

a conservative woman who has been vociferously against DT since the primaries.

Why don't I see you going after Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell with a similar determination? They loved the Bushes, too.

Or really any Republican. Do you?

I mean there was your fan fiction about the superhero Comey this morning, but other than that there really isn't a lot.

But there are for this particular person, and I find it pretty disturbing. Because she really is a rather odious character

But hey nice try, trying to make it about her being a woman. And by nice I mean pathetic.

And they probably have a bigger body count than the Mario Puzo's fictional crime family.

At least Bush still knew how to run a functioning government. Trump and his band of extremists hijacked this country and they're driving us off a cliff.

Covered in Lyle's Golden Syrup.... or maybe treacle.

I take everything that Louise says with a block of salt.

With a rasher of bacon, stewed tomato, and a smoked kipper.
