Bush 41 Warns of 'Ghastly' Future Under 'Wild Democrats'

ABC contributor Michelle Dubert reports: While campaigning for Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) in the Philadelphia suburbs today, former President George H.W. Bush warned of a "ghastly" future for his son and other Americans if "wild Democrats" take over Congress.

"I would hate to think what Arlen's life would be like, what Rick's life would be like, and what my son's life would be like if we lose control of the Congress," said former President George Bush in a reference to Pennsylvania's two Republican Senators. "If we have some of these wild Democrats in charge of these committees, it will be a ghastly thing for our country."

"They'd be pushing through all kinds of crazy legislation," he added, "And they would be issuing the subpoenas, dragging people in just to be getting headlines."

The former President made his remarks at a Santorum fundraiser at a private residence in Gladwyne, PA that was also attended by Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA).

[Taverner]

1. subpoenas...like for your dim son?

:evilgrin:

[Matariki]

3. beat me to it!

[wholetruth00]

78. Yeah, "those wild Democrats" that gave us Social Security, Medicare,

Head Start, Pell Grants, Food Stamps, won two major wars, cleaned up a Republican depression, family medical leave, workplace safety, and utility regulations, unions, and gave the country peace, prosperity, and raised US prestige to new heights under the Clinton administration. Oh, those wild, wild, wild Democrats.

[bullwinkle428]

2. Jiminy Christmas...they might even restore the Constitution! (n/t)

[acmejack]

32. Get to the bottom of Iran-Contra...

Poppy has a skeleton or two he might prefer remain closeted.

[Canuckistanian]

42. (gasp) Why, that's crazy talk!

See, that's past history. This is a post 9/11 world now. It's a New Order, now.

All hail the Unitary Executive! Sieg...Heil!... erm, I mean USA! USA!

[gademocrat7]

4. oh please, poppy. Your son and his cabal have already ruined our country.

Hopefully, the headlines will be coming from the Hague.

[verse18]

5. Crazy legislation

Like:
Warrantless wiretapping
Torture
Suspending habeas corpus

[flobee1]

21. Warns of 'Ghastly' Future?

Ellen: Clark, I think it'd be best if everyone went home... before things get worse.
Clark: WORSE? How could things get any worse? Take a look around here, Ellen. We're at the threshold of hell.



Sorry-thats the first thing that popped into my head:rofl:

[Rex]

6. Oh Poppy, you already made your bed now reap what you sow

fucking puker loser. You mean crazy legislation like suspending habeas corpus or legalizing torture? Fuck Poppy, I hope HE gets charge with war crimes right along with his son and Dickhead Cheney. They all deserve pinstripes and a jail cell.

And you know what Poppy? You and your whole family are FAILURES to the Nth degree. Suck it warmonger!

[kimmerspixelated]

7. Unbelievable!

[karlrschneider]

8. Who would know 'ghastly' better than him?...he married one.

...

[sakabatou]

68. Really?

[JHB]

9. "And they would be issuing the subpoenas...just to be getting headlines''

Three words, George:

Ken
Starr
Republican

If we merely did that, how would it be different from when Republicans control Congress?

But that's not what you're worried about. You're worried about subpeonas issued to get to the truth of a quarter century of Republican dirty dealings.

[progdonkey]

10. yeah, re-establishing the Writ of Habeus Corpus would be "ghastly" n/t

[patricia92243]

11. Our future would be the same as it was when we got rid of him - 8 years of

peace and prosperity.

[sinkingfeeling]

12. Wouldn't it be terrible if they issued articles of impeachment? Boo-hoo.

We'd have a full functioning Senate and Congress instead of some lap dogs giving our country over to an 'unitary executive branch'.

13. Well, I think (P)rick's life will be quieter next year

back to private life

[greenbriar]

14. yea, they will be found out for all their crimes is why he cares

those dirty mother truckers all deserve to be found out, tried and left to rot in singsing

[Gabi Hayes]

15. and, just how does that idiot propose congress overriding his

moronis son's veto?

is he THAT worried about a veto-proof majority?

SWEET!!

[Vinca]

16. Democrats would do horrible things -

fund education, make healthcare affordable to the masses, raise the minimum wage, end the war . . . all sorts of "ghastly" legislation. Poppy's a piece of work.

[The Wielding Truth]

73. All they have is fear,Dem's have the future. I'll take a Democratic future

[MrCoffee]

17. Translation: "Chimpy would have to veto, and then we'd all get a good look

at what a sick bastard he really is, if he doesn't have Congress to hide behind."

[shance]

18. Now we see who is really running the show. And who is really worried.

It's not his son.

Crazy legislation he says. How about rendering Habeus Corpus null and void?

Of course that is what he and his colleagues have wanted for decades now and they are having the younger ones do their dirty work.

[warrens]

19. Yeah, like putting your punk kid in jail

With a bunch of rough, tough men with no respect for the presidency. And your buddy Cheney too, you old fool.

[jpak]

20. "We'll be up to our necks in owls and no jobs for anyone"

Crazy Ozone People!!!!11111

[flobee1]

23. I'll use a famous rightwing quote!

IF THEY DID NOTHING WRONG, THEY SHOULDN'T BE WORRIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are you worried, George?!

[nam78_two]

22. Rick's life, "my son's" life, Arlen's life

What about the rest of the Americans -oh right they don't count...
what a pig :puke:

[elehhhhna]

52. fuck all of them. & the granchildren, gin&tonic, too.

[Mad_Dem_X]

60. The Conservative Mindset at work:

Me and Mine, and who cares about anyone else!

[Lisa]

24. and they accuse the Democrats of fearmongering!

Is Poppy testing the waters for suspending the elections, or something? (need to protect America from the "wild Democrats", etc.)

[nealmhughes]

25. Is he still alive? I thought his granddaughter Noelle spiked his prunes

with smack and he died... That might have just been me practicing "vivid dreaming" techniques, though.

[Burried News]

26. Why shit they might investigate the Oil Mafia and their bankers.

And roll back tax cuts for the wealthy.
And fix the SS Drug Plan.
And end the war in Iraq and actually bring Bin Laden to Justice.
And give the military some hope of real support and a commander in chief who is up front with them and a Secretary of Defense who's hatred of the young isn't written all over his face.

God damn blood sucking Grinch is going to try to scare us with this horseshit?

[wicket]

27. Wow, they're dragging that dinosaur out?

POPPY is sooooo PATHETIC!!!!

[NightOwwl]

28. It's "wild-eyed Democrats"...

not "wild Democrats." Sheesh Poppy, get your terminology right. :crazy:

[Dora]

29. Die, already, you poisonous bastard.

What's so crazy about prosecuting criminal acts? Pretty crazy!

Damn fucking straight... prosecute every single one of these sociopaths... FROM THE TOP DOWN.

TO THE HAGUE!!!

(mutter mutter mutter where's my torch, my pitchfork mutter mutter mutter)

[The_Casual_Observer]

30. That old bastard suffered a humilating defeat at the hands of Bill

Why doesn't he just go away and leave us alone?

[samsingh]

31. this is why i never believe that poppy and shrub disagree on the

invasion and occupation of Iraq.

[opihimoimoi]

33. The BOOMERANG FEAR BULLET...used by many R's and too many times

its become to be expected....the same ole shit...

like dats all they got??

[McCamy Taylor]

34. They will impeach his baby! His war criminal baby!

[tabasco]

35. Thanks for sending my dumb Ranger ass to Somalia, criminal.

One month left in your term and you make a major commitment of US forces.

I will take wild Democrats over stupid criminal republicans anyday.

At least the Democrats show some respect for the People and the Constitution.

[Human Torch]

36. Those damned whipper snappers...all hopped up on goofballs I'll bet!

I hope Poppy's senility keeps making the headlines. Especially when he starts talking to his giant imaginary rabbit pal, "Harvey."

:silly:

[zbdent]

37. Oh, yes, the horrors of affordable health care, cheaper prescription meds,

real border security, a real plan for Iraq and a real fight against terrorism ... oh, the horrors!

"Mother, the blood!"

[ComerPerro]

38. God forbid a bunch of partisan zealots take control of congress

and start accusing the president, a member of the party, of crimes.

They might tie up all legislation, and might even hinder anti-terrorism efforts, all because of political grandstanding and a mad attempt at a power grab.


That's never happened before, especially not in 1998

[glitch]

39. For his family and cronies: you better believe it will be ghastly.

And yes, we are wild. Although I prefer "fucking livid" but whatever.

[elehhhhna]

55. The punishment for traitors is still death by hanging.

It'll be ghastly alright. But in a good way.

[AwakeAtLast]

40. "Crazy legislation" - hmmmm, you mean like allowing TORTURE?!?!?!

:grr:

Yeah, real, um, crazy. :banghead:

[Gregorian]

48. No way. Universal health care. Now THAT'S crazy.

[Marr]

41. Men don't say "ghastly".

The Bush family is full of soft-handed, aristocratic man-boys.

"Ghastly". Oh dear me!

[MethuenProgressive]

43. Your camera plane is smoking! Bail out and let your crew die!

"Hero" GeorgeHurbertWalkerBush, a piece of shit then, and always.

[elehhhhna]

54. he must be gassed on halcyon again. what a wimp. AND a perv,

[tex-wyo-dem]

44. Don't worry about your son, Poppy...

I hear they have wonderful meals at Gitmo.

Not sure about the Hauge, though.

[City Lights]

45. The Republiclowns always accuse us of what they're already doing.

If only '41' had pulled out when he had the chance...

[AzDar]

46. Oh. Dear. God. How desperate they must be right now...

:rofl:

[shance]

47. "I would hate to think what Arlen's life would be like, what Rick's life w

what my son's life will be like" if Democrats take control of Congress.

Interesting comment.....very interesting.

It almost sounds like a threat.

[mhatrw]

49. Like habeas corpus and the Bill of Rights? n/t

[elehhhhna]

50. fuck poppy. "please don't kill me" GW, mocking Karla Faye Tucker

[elehhhhna]

51. and fuck that bitch barb, too.

[Megahurtz]

53. The Evil "Poppy" Speaks

I still believe that he is the worst of the Bunch.:evilgrin:

[guinivere]

56. roflmao

Oh, that's funny.


Ghastly! :rofl: Silly old fool, you want to see ghastly, try living out here in the real world.

He sounds worried about the subpoena thing. :D

[LTR]

57. What? He didn't call them 'bozos'?

I remember back in '92, right before the election, when he called Clinton and Gore "a couple of bozos".

I realized right then and there that he would lose. The final nail in his coffin.

[Crunchy Frog]

58. God I hope he's right about that.

[Mad_Dem_X]

59. Couldn't be any more ghastly

than our present!

[Leopolds Ghost]

61. Can someone do up a bumper sticker in photoshop for me? WILD DEMOCRATS

WILD DEMOCRATS --
we'll push through all kinds of crazy legislation!

[historian]

62. sure

send me the pic with detailed instructions on how you want it done and ill be happy to do it for you
send to [e-mail]

[Mme. Defarge]

63. Grace a Dieu ...

they are on the run!!!!!

[Dem2theMax]

64. I can't believe it. For once, a * is tellin' the truth.

It WILL be a "ghastly" future for his son if my prayers are answered.
Not to mention a few other choice 'evil-doers' in the * administration. :evilgrin:

As for that "just to be getting headlines" part - OK, he's back to lying.
We don't care about headlines, we care about the TRUTH, TRAITORS and TREASON. Got that Poppy?

[spanone]

65. Give me wild dems over self-righteous prick rethugs anyday.

Dems gone Wild!! Love it. Fuck you poppy.

[stepnw1f]

66. Yeah.... Subpoenas and REAL INVESTIGATIONS

Making Poppy sweat a little... And I wonder what things Clinton learned from being so close to Poppy. I'm sure under oath, Bill wouldn't mind divulging some of what he's learned about the Bushies.

Ahhhh... the possibilities are endless.

[Cha]

67. So what? All this shit is unfolding on foley

and hastert and lk has poopy on?

That's like when there was a big thing goin' on with Cindy Sheehan or something not lookin' so good for bushit and lk has that sourpuss pickles on.

[demo dutch]

69. All three of them were crying! oh please!

[Cha]

70. Crying? All three of them?

[demo dutch]

90. Well wiping back some tiny tears. LK closed with saying something

like "goodnight from a teary eyed set"

[Cha]

92. Fucking lk, man..this must just be

tearin' his neocon ass up! :nopity: :nopity:

[leesa]

71. Yeah, they'll throw your precious little war criminal, murdering son in

jail where he belongs...and maybe, finally, you too!

[cynatnite]

72. Yeah, crazy stuff like universal health care...

crazy, ain't it :sarcasm:

[The Backlash Cometh]

74. They have no clue about the hell they've put us through.

It's time they learn that we don't owe them a lifestyle, unless it's to dress in orange jumpsuits.

[Warren DeMontague]

75. God, Poppy. You make it sound so wonderful.

I think I may have to cut another check to the DNC, right now.

[tblue]

76. So tell me, 41, how are your friends, the Bin Ladens?

"And they would be issuing the subpoenas, dragging people in just to be getting headlines."

He says that like it's a bad thing.

[Hekate]

77. Still a sanctimonious hypocrite, I see. Never could listen to Bush Sr.

Whiney voice. "My son." "Barbara." What is it with this family? Their sense of entitlement is nearly absolute.

>gack<

79. Funny, George Herbert Wimp.....

"Ghastly" is the best way to describe that shrew wife of yours who spawned Born To Be Stupid.

[lonestarnot]

80. How many more years to we have to listen to his ghastly ass?

Isn't he about dead yet? Fucking scaremonger freak.

[shance]

81. On Chavez : "Sometimes tyrants like him have ways of falling"

n/t

[Clarkie1]

82. Sounds like paranoid schizophrenia to me. nt

[Az_lefty]

83. bush 41 is the one that sounds bat shit crazy...

:puke:

[Diane R]

84. Heaven forbid his precious son should have to answer for his crimes.

[WernhamHogg]

85. Don't know and don't care about the "lives" of

Don't know and don't care about the "lives" of Little Ricky or Georgie. As for Arlen, if the Dems were in charge, perhaps his "life" would be longer (thanks to stem cell research).

[fooj]

87. Sounds like a two-fer...

41 and 43 . I say haul them both off.

[Raine]

88. "Ghastly" for them

but good for the country.

[Bluebear]

89. "Gore is Ozone Man, he's far out, man!" - Poppy desperate in 1992

[SammyWinstonJack]

91. As opposed to the ghastly present we have under his ghastly son?

And they would be issuing the subpoenas, dragging people in just to be getting headlines. Like the repugs did to Clinton's Administration? What's he really worried about? :evilgrin:

[PATRICK]

93. The dotage bubble

He is as terrible a campaigner as dimson so I hope they keep trampling the greens to get his marvelous out of touch opinions. Hint: next time Dad, never use that word "crazy". It shows- for some inexplicable reason- that word has been on his mind and is being projected against enemies instead.

[Pacifist Patriot]

94. No wonder he's stumping. I know what their lives will be like.
