Live on the Larry King show on CNN, Barbara Bush, the mother of the
President threatened the Democratic candidates with death if they
criticized the president or her husband or any of her children. The
explosive remarks would have been front page news throughout the country
had Hillary Clinton said them, but since it is from the Bush matriarch
there is a deafening silence throughout the entire American press
regarding this chilling comment. This is evidence of the massive fear and
control mechanisms which have permeated into every facet of American
establishment. There is no stopping the Bushes. Soon there will be
blatant assassinations of political opponents in broad daylight and there
will be no mention of them at all. This is America's darkest hour. There
should be a chill down the spines of every thinking person in the world
regarding this horrendous threat to all of humanity from the Bush family.
Here is the comments from the CNN transcript:
KING: You have to have opinions. But you don't slander anybody.
BUSH: No, I don't think so.
KING: All right. Your recent comments on the Democratic presidential...
BUSH: Isn't that funny? I knew that was going to come up.
KING: Oh, I want to discuss a lot of things. You said so far, they're a pretty sorry group.
BUSH: Well, you know, mothers are allowed to be proud of their sons. And it gets a little old when 10 grown men run around the country not talking about what they're going to do, but knocking my precious, courageous, brilliant son. That's a mother speaking.
KING: What's the biggest difference from being the husband -- being the wife of a president and the mother of a president?
BUSH: Well, first of all, you have to watch the father of the president suffer. And it hurts when your children are criticized. It hurts a lot.
KING: He takes it badly?
BUSH: He and I both do. He -- he curses, and I grit my teeth.
But, no, he really -- he knows that's the name of the game. But it gets pretty ugly.
KING: But was it harder for you...
BUSH: Much.
KING: ...when he -- when the current president is criticized than when the husband was criticized?
BUSH: Right.
KING: How do you explain it -- motherly?
BUSH: Motherly. And fatherly. I mean, that's just a normal reaction.
But the same would be true if something happened that was difficult for Jeb or for Doro or Neil or Marvin. And you can criticize me, but don't criticize my children and don't criticize my daughters-in-law and don't criticize my husband, or you're dead.
