What a guy!

Make money off the front end sending Americans off to some BS unconstitutional military conflicts and then make money off the back end speaking to those selfsame people sent to get maimed, mutilated, and killed. 

What an American!  What a capitalist!  What a country!   :rolleyes:

It's not the media saying it HH.  From the article:

Members of the Texas-based Helping a Hero charity told ABC News that Bush charged $100,000 for his 2012 speech at a charity fundraiser for veterans who lost limbs in the Afghanistan and Iraq Wars. The former president was also given use of a private jet at a cost of $20,000 and former First Lady Laura Bush was paid $50,000 to speak to the group last year.

The fees infuriated one of the board members, who told CNN Wednesday that Bush should not have accepted any money.

I'm still going to wait and hear what he has to say.....c'mon, you know as well as I do, people LOVE to hate him.  This guy COULD be fabricating the truth here.....Don't act like it isn't possible.....It doesn't match up with stories about him and the military from the past.

BUT, if it does pan out to be true....then he deserves all the nasty sh!t that is being said about him.  I won't defend him.  But I will wait and see what develops first.

Things are what they are....

Conservatives hold John Boehner hostage

For the first time in 105 years, a speaker of the House is the target of what parliamentarians call a "motion to vacate the chair" — and what ordinary people might call an attempt to throw the speaker out on his ear.

These people can't even run a political party and some people think this party can run a country?  :rolleyes:

LOL!  Oh yes!  Evidently!   :biggrin:

It's not like all the Clinton/Clinton scenarios haven't been publicly worried to death since she ran for President last time.   :razz:

Yup!  It's like who would they put in the White House...The Gump? 

I'm waiting to see the massive internal struggle he has with himself should it look like he could really be the nominee.  He doesn't want to work that hard but he'll struggle with his massive narcissistic ego.   :biggrin:

Fiorina is a loser all the way around, and most of the rest are pure nutbags. 

The relatively sane candidates aren't really getting any play at all. 

It's as if the Repugs are only attracting the stupid and wild-eyed crazies of the populace...oh and the most racist segment of society.   :biggrin:
