    Democrats really do love Republicans — when they’re dead

    He was a patriot, a hero, a *genial gentleman and a great American. You can’t pick up a newspaper or go near a television without hearing leftists gush with praise for the late President George H.W. Bush. Who knew they felt this way?

    And you are not mistaken if the outpouring of previously unknown affection for the first President Bush sounds familiar. That’s because it is almost identical to the loving send-off the same suspects gave Sen. John McCain after he died in August.

    It all just goes to prove that Democrats and their media handmaidens really do love Republicans — when they’re dead. All the more so if, when they were alive, they opposed President Trump....

    I'll give you that. He was an honorable man and his service should be respected. By all indications, he was a solid and dedicated family man.

    I haven't read one word about his certain intimacy with the "Deep State", although he certainly was part of that self-serving, unAmerican bureaucratococracy going back to his CIA days in the 1970's and probably earlier. I often wonder how different things might be if Reagan had chosen another running mate.

    Goodbye, Mr Bush.

    Think about the fact that GHWB enlisted at 18 and survived being shot down at 20. Compare that to what most 18-20 year olds are doing in today's world. Whomever labeled GHWB with the "wimp factor" BS is a fool. He was a stud alpha male and a great bureaucrat, husband and father.
