I hear that her (book?) tour with Bill isn't doing too well. Also, the Clinton Foundation is drying up. It's sad.sad

Hi Russ:

I'm not sure why Richard won't admit to voting for Perot.  Perot was very popular with the right-populist wing of the GOP and as Richard himself mentioned, the right wing of the GOP (which obviously includes Richard) was pretty darned upset about the breached "no-new-taxes" pledge.  I'm not sure if the "RINO" moniker had been invented by 1992, but Richard surely would have loathed Bush 41 as a RINO.

Without Cory Gardner, the Kavanaugh and maybe even Gorsuch confirmation votes could have been quite different.  I assume that you are going to oppose Gardner in the primary, not in the general, if he wins.  It would be pretty amazing to hear that you voted for a D in the general.  Gardner holds the most significant R office left in all of Colorado, so I think it is short-sighted for you to be gunning for him!

There is your irony; you made Hillary Clinton possible.

I agonized and voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016. It would have been a no-brainer had I known how awful Trump was going to be. I actually had hope Trump would change after winning - what I didn't reckon is that he'd change for the worse.

So I answered your question directly, yet I have to assume from your non-response that you didn't vote for Bush in 1992. You're a typical liberal.

I am amazed at your interpretation of what Rich said......how can you be that clueless? I have to assume you didnt actually read what he posted as it is quite obvious he gave you every possible reason to know he voted for Bush lol

You claim to be conservative and you voted for that traitorous lying bitch? SERIOUSLY? I would gladly have voted in our county dog catcher over her without a second thought.

OK, I'll take your word for it.  But why?  Bush was a globalist and a moderate.  By today's standards he would be at least as moderate as many RINOs you loathe(d) - John McCain for example.  Bush didn't keep his tax pledge.  You must have been a really squishy conservative back in the day!

He didn't. He "voted" for Bush in 88, and Perot in '92. I'd bet money on it, but as Richard knows, there is no way to prove or disprove it. The fact that he gave a weasely answer the first go around (very Clintonesque) tells you everything you need to know.

The truth hurts, don't it Rich?

I don't know if Bush 41 was a great President but he surely was a great man and sadly, his death makes us wax nostalgically about a time when our Presidents were actually qualified for their position, and when they had some history of real service to their country, and when they were people to look up to.

The only snowflake behavior I see is Trump-lemmings that complain about people that object to him. "OH, YOU ARE SO BUTT HURT....JUST STOP"

Hahahahahahaha
