Barbara Bush Announces Run for President, Attacks Son Jeb

PORTLAND, MAINE (The Nil Admirari): Earlier this morning, former First Lady Barbara Bush shocked the political world when she announced she was running for president on the same day her son Jeb Bush was scheduled to announce his run. The ninety-year-old wife of former President George H.W. Bush and mother of former President George W. Bush said she was "far more qualified" to lead the country than anyone else.


Mama Bush on foreign policy...

Bush also touted her foreign policy experience by adding, "My husband listened to me on Iraq in 1990 and 1991, my son George did not listen to me on Iraq for his whole presidency, and my son Jeb will get America stuck in that horrible country for decades if you elect him."


And the war criminal...

George W. Bush said he "didn't know much" about the Constitution and it would "be fun" if he also ran for president again.

The 37th President, when asked to assess Daddy Bush:

"Oh, he's okay, he can do his job. He's just not very interesting. Now Barbara Bush, she interesting. She knows how to hate."

And if ANYONE was an expert on knowing how to hate, it was Richard Milhous Nixon.
