Remember when GHW Bush warned us of the “voodoo doo doo they will do to us”? Talk about a flop-flipper to get in, and stay in office (which failed!). Sorry when “41” turned his back on reality that he clearly understood, he opened the door for his idiot progeny.

“As for the US constitution, bear in mind that many if not most Americans today give it a reverence comparable to what fundamentalists give scripture.”-——————————————————-Ah, yes.

There were three different persons who reported it and who were present. Noteworthy is the fact that Bush has never denied it.
