Actually GW Bush has referred to Bill Cilnton as his brother from another mother,so I have come to realize they are all cozy and that drama between the two parties is largely for the voters’ benefit. At the end of the day the all share a drink and a meal together so to speak
You know, that is soooo true.
I will never forget the eulogy Orin Hatch gave at Ted Kennedy’s funeral. He was telling this “funny” story about the time he ran campaign ads in Utah saying he would go to DC and fight Ted Kennedy, along with other really negative things about TK. He then talked about how he and Teddy had a good laugh about those ads.
Everybody thought that was funny but I really didn’t. It made me realize what fools we are sometimes. I thought about the elderly folks in Utah who probably sent Hatch money for his campaign. I bet they didn’t appreciate hearing that he and Teddy yukked it up over that.
Don’t get me wrong, I like hearing stories about people from opposite sides getting along but why lie about it? Wouldn’t it be better for the country if they would stop the hyperbole and divisiveness? At least dial it back a few notches.
Remember this photo from Nancy Reagan’s funeral? I think this says it all about how the Bushes feel about the Clintons and vice versa. I mean, I actually really like this photo but, come on.

Anyway, Jeanne, I’m really glad you said what you did. It’s probably something we all should remind ourselves of from time to time, especially during election season. It’s a reminder I particularly needed today so, thank you!
