Jugde a party by what its ex-presidents do - DFW - 05-15-2012 03:31 PM
What did Republicans Nixon, Reagan, Bush Lite do?
Nixon hid in disgrace, Reagan vegetated further, and Bush Lite was invisible, emerging only to endorse Romney. Bush Sr. did a few charitable missions while his son, in office, was ignoring them.
Democrat Jimmy Carter worked for Habitat for Humanity, founded the Carter Center and flew around the world trying to help the country out on diplomatic missions. Democrat Bill Clinton founded the Clinton Global Initiative, went all over the world raising funds for disaster areas and charitable causes.
So, it's pretty obvious who we want as our ex-presidents. Come to think of it, that's the party I want to provide our sitting presidents, too.

I'm willing to give Reagan a pass because of his Alzheimer's.
And we can all be grateful that Bush the Stupid disappeared from the world stage. What a blemish on our country's history he is.
