    Here's a side note to his (seemingly) vile behavior...he really looks like death-warmed-over these days, did he get his hands on some hooch or some coke or something!?

    Yikes.

    Yuck.

    Like I said though, if that's how you and others see it I'm more than happy to consider myself crazy for thinking so......

    I would prefer the latter.

    I have to say though, respect to these two for working together on this and trying to get people from both sides interested.

    Quick someone tell me something vile and seedy about Bush, because I always feel bad for him when I see him trying to act normal in public.

    I know Bush1 is getting too old to do walkabouts in Haiti. But I sure liked the original Bush-Clinton team a lot better than having this uncomfortable looking guy trying to step in and look so much like all he wants to do is get out.
