Guess at 94 and with his health having been in decline for so long, it's not all that surprising. Suppose they'll be mixed emotions over this, just like any politican. To keep it on the positive side for the moment, I know his memorial will recognize his many accomplishments, glad he gets to be back with Barbara, & my heart out to George W & the rest of the Bush family, may another former president rest in peace.

Real shame. When the Bush years ended, so too did my childhood, both literally and symbolically.

Oddly enough, Bush Round 2 was the beginning of my adulthood. Very strange.

I always liked the guy. He sure hung in there. Rest easy, George.

I was only one-year old when he was elected President. My youngest brother was also born during his final year as President as well. He did a lot of good public service for our country. R.I.P.

RIP, Presidento Bush Uno. You were pretty decent as a chief executive, although I'm sure you signed off on plenty of shady $hit back at the CIA. :tlol:

The question is...

...did he ever finish writing his memoirs? I mean he got sidetracked fighting with Homer in the sewers.

Why do I have Party in the CIA running through my head now? Anyway, RIP Mr President. You were much loved.

Did he suffer from any dementia?

Shesus. Way to never fail to seize an opportunity to play the "Look how much I hate Trump!" game, even over the dead body of a guy.

All Trump did was take his seat next to his wife with the rest of the President club. He was not running around in his underwear and yelling fake news. I didn't see anything news worthy. I did not see anything awkward. Just our current President and past Presidents paying respect to Bush. And I watch the whole thing lol. There is really no "Trump" news to report about this.

Every time I pull up Yahoo! News homepage, I realize that All News is Trump News. :lol:
