Barbara Bush, wife of former US President George H. W. Bush and mother of former US President George W. Bush, has passed away.

Though we may not agree with their politics, it is only decent behavior to give condolences.

I think the Bushes represent the last of the more affable conservatives - as committed as they are to an ideology we disagree with, they maintain close relationships with Obama and others. Given what Trump and the new GOP he represents is like...

ironbite:
The Bushes were the last good GOP family that I actually liked.  Bush the Lesser kinda was a downward trend but the Bushes were nice.

Ironbite-I might have even met them when I was a baby...RIP.

She was by most accounts a good woman. And she did love her husband. A 73 year marriage is pretty darn good. Sadly, look for George Sr. to go soon.

niam2023:
Oh George H.W.

He lost his wife, he watched his younger son get basically mangled by a horrid troglodyte on the national stage, for all to see, and has seen an ideology he had passion for basically twisted into "WE LUV TRUMP".

Yeah, I see your point, Rookie.
